Thinking About a Career Shift Out of Tech or SaaS Sales?

Join CFS as a Technology Recruiter in our top performing Hartford office!

If you love sales but want a fresh challenge—one where you’re building relationships, helping people navigate career moves, and running your own book of business—recruiting could be your next move. CFS is looking for a full-desk Technology Recruiter who’s excited to blend business development, client strategy, and talent matchmaking.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives in a sales-driven environment but wants more ownership, more impact, and more long‑term upside than traditional tech or SaaS sales roles typically offer.

Why CFS?

• We’re 100% Employee-Owned: Every employee at CFS is an owner. Through our ESOP, you share directly in the company’s success and build significant long-term wealth.
• A Rewarding Compensation Structure: Base salary + uncapped commission and shares through Employee Ownership (ESOP)
• Training + Autonomy: We invest heavily in training—both at onboarding and throughout your career—while giving you the independence to build your business your way.
• Career Growth: We have a strong track record of developing recruiters into leaders, division managers, and branch management.
• Culture: National reach with a small, family feel. At CFS, you’re known, supported, and valued—not just a number.
• Our Values: Integrity. Teamwork. Accountability. Positive Mindset. Hard Work.
• Our Vision for our Employees: Grow. Have fun. Make money. Provide opportunities for people.
• Award-Winning: Recognized by Top Workplaces USA (2023–2026), Best Practice Institute’s “Most Loved Workplace,” and multiple industry awards from Staffing Industry Analysts.

What You’ll Do

Business Development: If you come from SaaS or tech sales, this will feel familiar, with the ability to keep the relationship and continue to grow your accounts.

• Build and grow a client base needing tech talent
• Sell staffing solutions to hiring managers through the C‑suite
• Run calls, meetings, and discovery conversations
• Secure new job orders and become a trusted talent partner

Recruiting: Where sales meets strategy and people:

• Source and screen IT professionals
• Understand skillsets, motivations, and long-term goals
• Conduct interviews and reference checks
• Build and maintain a high-quality talent pipeline

Placement & Relationship Management

• Match candidates with client needs
• Present qualified candidates and guide both sides through the process
• Maintain ongoing communication with clients and candidates
• Handle service issues quickly and professionally
• Help grow the Technology staffing division

Who Thrives Here

• Have 2+ years in sales or staffing with track record of strong results
• Love selling—the chase, the close, the win
• Communicate confidently with all levels, from engineers to executives
• Are great at social/email outreach but even better on the phone
• Want to treat your work like your own business
• Are competitive, self-motivated, and collaborative
• Have a good sense of humor
