Job Description

​​​​​ Sales Recruiter

Overview

Precision Sales Recruiting specializes in recruiting sales talent. We believe great salespeople are best recruited by people who understand how sales actually works. 

We are known for a white-glove, high-touch experience for both clients and candidates. We stay involved throughout the entire process, including strategy, candidate preparation, interview coordination, and consistent communication. 

Why this role exists

This role supports our ongoing delivery of high-quality searches while protecting the standard our clients and candidates expect. 

The Role

As a Sales Recruiter, you will take ownership of full-cycle recruiting for individual contributor sales roles. This is not a transactional sourcing role. You will act as a consultant to both clients and candidates and represent Precision Sales Recruiting in every interaction. 

You will be trained directly on our recruiting methodology, client consultation process, and candidate experience standards. This role is a strong fit for an early-career sales professional who wants to build a long-term career in recruiting and takes pride in doing things the right way. 

What You Will Do

• Partner with clients to understand sales roles, expectations, and hiring goals 

• Develop and execute a recruiting strategy for each search 

• Proactively source and engage high-quality sales candidates 

• Evaluate candidates for sales skills, behaviors, and mindset 

• Conduct structured interviews that go beyond resumes 

• Maintain consistent communication with candidates throughout the process 

• Coordinate interviews and next steps 

• Present well-prepared candidates to clients with clear insights and recommendations 

• Manage your pipeline using an ATS 

What Success Looks Like

• Candidates trust you, feel prepared, and advocate for your professionalism 

• Clients rely on your judgment and value your input 

• Details do not fall through the cracks 

• You operate with ownership, urgency, and integrity 

• You own and learn from mistakes 

• You consistently raise the bar for the candidate and client experience

What Success Does Not Look Like

Success in this role is not measured by activity for activity’s sake. We care about outcomes, judgment, and follow-through.

Success is  not :

• Sending a high volume of candidates without regard for quality or fit

• Measuring performance by the number of outbound messages or daily outreach activity

• Treating recruiting as a numbers game rather than a consulting process

• Focusing on making an ATS or CRM look busy instead of moving searches forward

• Needing constant oversight or micromanagement to stay on track

This role rewards thoughtful execution, strong communication, and ownership. We value recruiters who think critically, manage details proactively, and take responsibility for delivering the right outcomes for clients and candidates.

Who We Are Looking For

Required

• Sales experience 

• Recruiting experience 

• Strong interest in transitioning from sales into recruiting 

• Strong communication and written follow-up 

• Comfortable using CRM or ATS tools and modern communication platforms 

• Highly coachable and motivated to improve 

• Organized, detail-oriented, and dependable 

Preferred

• Sales recruiting experience 

• Experience selling into or recruiting for manufacturing, construction, or industrial companies 

• Consultative, relationship-driven background 

Compensation

• Base salary: $65,000 to $80,000 

• Commission: $15,000 to $25,000 

• Total first-year OTE: $80,000 to $105,000 (includes onboarding and ramp time) 

Business Development and Referral Incentives

This role is  not a full-desk recruiting role . You are not required to sell recruiting services, close clients, or carry a business development quota.

That said, because we believe sales skills matter, we welcome recruiters who are comfortable initiating conversations and identifying potential opportunities.

If you source or refer a qualified prospect and successfully  book a sales conversation , you will earn a 10 percent commission on the resulting recruiting engagement. You are not responsible for pitching, negotiating, or closing the deal. Your role ends at booking the conversation.

This opportunity is optional and designed for recruiters who enjoy light outbound prospecting and want to be rewarded for leveraging their sales skill set.

Benefits

• Great health benefits 

• 401(k) match 

• Competitive PTO 

Why Join Precision Sales Recruiting

• Training in a proven sales-first recruiting process 

• Expertise that compounds over time 

• Real responsibility early in your career 

• A culture that values professionalism and follow-through 

• Long-term growth path
