Location: Greater Houston, TX (Hybrid) Type: Full-time, W-2 Reports to: Sr. VP, Operations
Compensation: $80,000 to $105,000 on-target earnings in year one (base plus uncapped commission). Top performers earn more.
True Alignment Network is a boutique staffing and recruiting firm based in Greater Houston with nationwide reach. We place talent across the energy and industrial economy, including oil & gas, power generation, battery storage, manufacturing, pipeline and midstream, renewable energy, engineering and construction, and skilled trades. We also staff professional, IT/technical, and light-industrial roles through direct-hire, contract, and temp-to-hire solutions.
Our edge is real experience in the field. Our leadership has spent years working inside the energy and industrial sectors, so we understand the work we recruit for and speak our clients' language.
We are looking for a Business Development Representative to open new client companies for us. This is a new-business role focused on finding and closing new clients. You will identify companies that are hiring, get in front of decision-makers, and win new job orders for our recruiting team to fill. You handle prospecting, discovery, and closing, while our delivery team fills the roles you bring in.
Build and work a pipeline of new client companies across energy, industrial, and professional sectors, with a focus on companies that are actively hiring.
Run discovery conversations with hiring managers, HR leaders, and executives to understand their staffing needs.
Win new job orders (direct-hire, contract, and temp-to-hire) and hand them to our recruiting team.
Manage your pipeline in our CRM and keep an accurate view of incoming business.
Meet weekly activity targets (outreach, conversations, meetings) and monthly new-business goals.
Work closely with recruiting to deliver a strong client experience and earn repeat business.
Represent True Alignment Network professionally in the market and on LinkedIn.
First 30 days: fully ramped and prospecting at a steady cadence, with your first discovery calls booked.
First 90 days: 3 to 5 new job orders won and a healthy, growing pipeline.
At run rate: roughly 4 to 5 new job orders won each month and a diversified book of new client accounts.
2+ years of B2B sales or business development experience. Staffing or recruiting experience is a plus.
A focus on new business. You enjoy prospecting and closing new accounts, not just managing existing ones.
Strong discovery and consultative selling skills, and comfort talking with decision-makers.
Solid pipeline and CRM habits, and comfort being measured on activity and results.
Strong written and verbal communication.
Self-motivated and coachable, with an interest in commission-based earning.
Come ready to talk about a specific sales number you have personally hit.
Experience selling into energy, oil & gas, manufacturing, or industrial markets.
An existing network of Gulf Coast or Texas hiring companies.
Existing client relationships you can bring with you (see What We Offer).
Familiarity with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, HubSpot, or similar tools.
Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission, with on-target earnings of roughly $80,000 to $105,000 in year one and top performers earning more. Your income grows with the business you bring in.
Credit for clients you bring. If you bring existing client relationships with you, we will recognize them in your compensation.
Room to grow. This role has a clear path forward. Strong performers can advance into a Business Development Manager role and beyond as we scale.
A supported ramp so you can build your pipeline steadily.
A hybrid schedule based in Greater Houston.
A dedicated recruiting team that fills the roles you sell.
Direct access to leadership and real input into how we grow.
Full-time W-2 employment.
