Business Development Manager — IT Staffing & Consulting
Location: Somerset, NJ (Hybrid) | NYC Metro & PA | Remote (Northeast / East Coast; Midwest considered)
Compensation: $80,000–$120,000 base + uncapped commission + bonus
Employment Type: Full-time
We need someone who can open doors, win IT staffing and consulting business, and grow those accounts into real books of business. If you have sold contract, contract-to-hire, direct hire, or SOW-based IT services and you are ready to find your next role to build a rewarding career — read on.
Who We Are
Employvision is a 20-year-old IT staffing and consulting firm headquartered in Somerset, NJ. We provide talent acquisition and staffing services to Fortune 500, mid-market, and MSP/VMS companies. We are profitable, founder-led, and growing — which means fast decisions, no layers of approval, and direct access to leadership when you need something closed.
What Makes This Seat Different
Our delivery actually delivers. The biggest challenge for a staffing sales career is a recruiting team that cannot fill what you sell. Our recruiters run 3 to 4 qualified submittals per role, typically within 24–72 hours. You bring the requirement; our recruiters deliver the right candidate. They are trained to find genuine candidates.
Uncapped commission that compounds. You earn on every hour your consultants bill, for as long as they bill. Year one is about building. Year two is when the residual math starts working for you. Our top producers double their salary in commissions.
You own your market. Choose your vertical, your geography, your accounts. We are not going to hand you a script and a dialer quota and call it strategy.
No bureaucracy. Need a rate approved at 5 PM on a Friday to win a deal? You will get an answer, not a committee.
What You'll Do
- Build and own a pipeline of new IT staffing and consulting clients — hiring managers, directors, VPs of Engineering, IT procurement, and HR/talent leaders
- Prospect through the channels that actually work for you: outbound calls, email, Linked In, referrals, industry events, and your existing network
- Run discovery that uncovers real hiring pain — headcount plans, project timelines, budget cycles, and where their current vendors are failing them
- Negotiate rates, margins, MSAs, and terms that protect both the client relationship and our profitability
- Partner daily with recruiting to qualify requirements, calibrate submittals, and close candidates
- Grow accounts from a single requisition into multiple departments, locations, and service lines
- Keep your pipeline honest and current in CRM
What You Bring
Required
- Minimum 2+ years of full-cycle sales in IT staffing, IT consulting, or professional services — you know what a bill rate, spread, and gross margin are, and you can defend all three
- A documented track record of new business: accounts you opened, revenue you generated, quotas you hit
- Comfort selling to technical and executive buyers without pretending to be an engineer
- The resilience the job actually requires — you know that 40 conversations produce 4 opportunities and 1 client, and you make the 40 calls anyway
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
Strongly Preferred
- An existing client network in the Northeast, NYC metro, NJ, PA, or your local market
- Experience with MSP/VMS programs (Fieldglass, Beeline, Coupa) and direct end-client relationships
- Familiarity with in-demand tech skill sets: cloud, data engineering, cybersecurity, full-stack, ERP, AI/ML
- Experience selling SOW or project-based consulting alongside staff augmentation
What We Don't Require
A specific title on your resume. Account Executive, BDM, Client Partner, Sales Manager — if you have sold staffing and you have hit your number, we want to talk.
