- Confidently negotiate rates and contract terms, advising clients on market conditions and GCC hiring practices
- Build and scale your own contractor desk and revenue pipeline
- Maintain strong client relationships to secure repeat business and PSL opportunities
- Collaborate with internal teams and ensure proper account handover and documentation
- Achieve and exceed individual revenue targets
What We’re Looking For (Must-Have)
- 1–3 years’ experience in 360 recruitment
- Proven exposure to contract recruitment (placements or strong process knowledge)
- Experience working with or targeting consultancies, financial services, or professional services clients
- Strong commercial mindset with evidence of business development, negotiation, and deal closing
- Understanding of GCC visa/hiring processes, or transferable knowledge from European markets
- Confident communicator with strong client-facing and sales skills
- Highly driven, resilient, and motivated by commission and performance
- Fluent English (Arabic is a plus)
Nice to Have
- Existing client network in the GCC or within consultancies/financial institutions
- Experience recruiting in tech verticals (e.g., data, AI, cyber, transformation)
- Track record of building a consistent contract revenue stream
What We Offer
- Competitive base salary + highly attractive commission structure
- Opportunity to build and own your contract desk in a growing market
- High-performance, entrepreneurial environment
