Job Description

Business Development Specialist – Recruitment & Engineering Sectors

We don’t just fill vacancies, we align potential with purpose. And we're growing. If you have the commercial edge to open doors, nurture meaningful partnerships, and connect forward-thinking companies with exceptional engineering talent, we want to hear from you.

This is where you come in.

We're looking for a Business Development Specialist who thrives on identifying and engaging companies within the engineering, energy, and mining sectors. You’ll take the initiative, uncovering opportunities, sparking conversations, and translating business needs into tailored talent strategies.

Your initial focus will be South Africa, but your mindset should be global. You'll collaborate closely with our recruitment team, building lasting, strategic partnerships.

What we're looking for:

  • Minimum of 3 years’ experience in business development, sales, or client-facing roles within recruitment, engineering, energy, mining, or related sectors.
  • A proactive, strategic approach to lead generation, market mapping, and B2B relationship-building.
  • Strong communication skills and confidence in pitching tailored talent solutions, developing trust with technical and commercial stakeholders.
  • Experience or exposure to the renewable energy space is advantageous, but not mandatory.

Flexible Engagement Options:

We’re open to different engagement models to suit your availability and expertise, including:

  • Fixed-term contract (full-time or part-time)
  • Part-time consultancy for a defined duration
  • Freelance arrangement on a project-by-project basis

What’s in it for you:

This isn't a plug-and-play sales gig. You’ll have the autonomy to shape your own pipeline, supported by a knowledgeable team specializing in engineering recruitment. You’ll join an environment that values fresh thinking, deep listening, and genuine alignment.

Engineering careers, rethought. Let’s build the future, one connection at a time.
