Who We're Looking For

We want someone who is comfortable being out in the community and talking to people.

One day you may visit personal injury attorneys for our chiropractic clinic. Another day you may visit nursing homes or hospitals for staffing and private-pay referrals. You may spend another day visiting warehouses for staffing contracts, and another visiting schools to develop uniform accounts.

You must be able to switch between different industries, understand what each business offers, identify the right decision-maker, and confidently explain how we can help.

We are looking for someone who is persistent without being pushy, professional, organized, personable, and motivated by results.

If you enjoy meeting people, building relationships, developing partnerships, and turning conversations into business opportunities, we encourage you to apply.

Growth Opportunity: Strong performance may lead to increased hours, additional commission opportunities, and advancement into a full-time Business Development Manager position.
