Quest Talent Solutions – Account Executive (Remote)

Culture Focused. Talent Driven.

Quest Talent Solutions is a family-owned boutique recruiting firm. Since our inception in 2017, we have quickly made a name for ourselves in a variety of industries including retail, sports & entertainment and construction. As we continue to grow, we are searching for an Account Executive to build a book of business from the ground up by identifying, developing, and closing new client relationships.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a true business development environment and is motivated by ownership, autonomy, and uncapped earning potential.

Primary Role Synopsis:

Primary Responsibilities:

• Build and grow a new book of business from scratch through consistent outbound prospecting
• Proactively generate your own leads through warm and cold outreach, referrals, and strategic research
• Leverage your personal and professional network to identify and develop new business opportunities

• Negotiate and close client agreements and partnership terms
• Manage client relationships from initial contact through placement and ongoing partnership
• Source and engage active and passive candidates for client openings
• Act as the primary point of contact for clients throughout the interview and hiring process
• Utilize tools, software and internal resources to identify prospects and candidates
