Independent Executive Search Consultant Remote

Independent Executive Search Consultant (1099) --- Remote

Augmentis | Boutique Executive Search & Talent Augmentation Firm

Augmentis is the executive search and talent augmentation arm of The Work In Me, LLC, a Houston-based firm with 18+ years in the recruiting industry. We specialize in placing Accounting, Finance, Operations, Supply Chain, and Engineering professionals --- primarily serving energy, manufacturing, aerospace, and PE-backed companies across the United States.

We're not a staffing mill. We're a boutique firm built on consultative client relationships, strategic search methodology, and a commitment to quality over volume. Our partners get the infrastructure and brand support of an established firm with the autonomy and earning potential of running their own desk.

We're looking for Independent Executive Search Consultants to join our growing team as 1099 partners. Whether you're an experienced full-desk recruiter ready to go independent, an agency recruiter looking to break free from a W-2 structure, or a corporate recruiting professional ready to transition into search --- we want to talk to you.

This is a full-desk role. You'll develop client relationships, manage job orders, source and screen candidates, coordinate interviews, negotiate offers, and manage placements. You'll operate under the Augmentis brand with full support --- CRM/ATS access, collaboration tools, sourcing partner support, and hands-on mentorship from our Managing Partner.

• Develop and manage client relationships across target industries (energy, manufacturing, aerospace, PE-backed companies, and more)
• Own the full recruitment lifecycle: job order intake, sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer negotiation, and placement management
• Execute both permanent/direct-hire executive searches and temporary/contract placements
• Maintain real-time activity logs, candidate tracking, and deal progress in our CRM
• Collaborate with Augmentis leadership and sourcing partners on active searches
• Represent the Augmentis brand with professionalism and consultative expertise

This is a commission-based independent contractor (1099) partnership with one of the most competitive structures in boutique search:

• 50% commission on your first three successful placements --- designed to get you earning quickly
• Tiered commission accelerators after your third placement, scaling up to 70% based on annual production
• Full-desk ownership (you develop the client AND source the candidate) = 100% production credit before commission calculation

• Great commission structure
• Monthly calculation, paid semi-monthly

• All commissions paid via ACH direct deposit, semi-monthly (1st and 15th)
• 12-month candidate ownership rights on candidates you source
• 18-month client ownership rights on clients you originate
• Sourcing support available

• Agency recruiting experience in any capacity or independent search (all levels of experience welcome)
• Strong communication skills and a consultative, relationship-driven approach
• Self-motivation and discipline to manage your own pipeline and production
• Willingness to learn and follow a proven methodology (The Augmentis Method)
• Reliable internet connection and a professional remote work setup
• Integrity, professionalism, and a commitment to quality placements over quick transactions
