Business Development Manager
Grayson Search Partners, Chicago, IL, United States
Grayson Search Partners , founded in 2014, is looking to add to our growing contract team.
Business Development Manager – Finance & Accounting
We’re hiring a Finance & Accounting Business Development Manager to drive new client acquisition and revenue growth. This is a front-line sales role focused on opening doors, winning new business, and building long-term client relationships.
You’ll own the full sales cycle including prospecting, pitching, closing, and expanding accounts while partnering closely with recruiting to deliver on what you sell. This is a high-activity, performance-driven role. If you’ve succeeded in staffing or B2B sales, you’ll know exactly what it takes.
What You’ll Do
Prospect and generate new business through cold calls, email outreach, referrals, and networking
Build and manage a pipeline; drive opportunities from first conversation through close
Meet with clients (in-person and virtual) to understand hiring needs and position staffing solutions
Partner with recruiters to ensure strong delivery and repeat business
Negotiate terms, close deals, and grow accounts over time
Stay plugged into the market to identify hiring trends and new opportunities
What We’re Looking For
Experience in B2B sales; staffing or recruiting experience is strongly preferred
Proven track record of hitting revenue targets not just activity metrics
Comfortable with cold outreach and direct client engagement
Strong presence and credibility with clients
Competitive, self-motivated, and accountable
Ability to handle rejection, adjust quickly, and keep moving
The Reality
This is not an account management role. True business development
Activity level matters: calls, meetings, and consistent pipeline generation
You’ll have autonomy, but results are the expectation
Why Join
An entrepreneurial environment without constraints of regions or territories
Clear path to build a book of business and increase earnings
Unlimited Vacation
Company Reward Trip and Great Team Outings
Direct visibility with leadership and influence on growth
Team environment that values production and follow-through
