Ambition deserves opportunity. Build your career with Symbiotica.
Symbiotica is a specialist headhunting firm helping life sciences businesses build commercial, technical and leadership teams across North America and Europe. We’re expanding our Montreal team and looking for a commercially minded recruiter and/or sales professional who is driven, thrives on creating opportunities, developing new business and building lasting client partnerships.
At Symbiotica, you'll have the opportunity to build your own business by developing a specialist market, establishing relationships with leading life sciences companies and directly influencing your earnings through your performance.
The Opportunity
This is a 360-degree Recruitment Consultancy role, which means you will take ownership of the entire recruitment sales cycle from developing your own client portfolio, generating new business to delivering specialist recruitment solutions across North America and Europe.
- Generate new business: Proactively identify prospective clients, develop sales opportunities and establish new partnerships.
- Open doors: Engage senior decision-makers through strategic prospecting, cold outreach, networking and creative business development.
- Build client partnerships: Understand business challenges, communicate our value and develop long-term commercial relationships.
- Grow your portfolio: Identify opportunities for further collaboration and become a trusted recruitment partner.
- Deliver exceptional talent: Headhunt, engage and qualify specialist professionals, managing the recruitment process through to placement.
- Drive results: Manage your sales pipeline, work towards ambitious revenue targets and take ownership of your performance.
What Will Make You Successful?
- Commercially ambitious: Motivated by achievement, financial success and career progression.
- Proactive and entrepreneurial: You take initiative, think creatively and create opportunities rather than waiting for them.
- Sales-oriented: You genuinely enjoy prospecting, opening conversations and developing new business.
- Resilient and persistent: You embrace challenges, navigate rejection and stay focused on results.
- Confident and engaging: You communicate effectively, build rapport and enjoy connecting with new people.
- Accountable and driven: You thrive in a target-driven environment and take ownership of your performance.
- Resourceful and coachable: You think independently, welcome feedback and continuously look to improve.
- Experience in Sales, Business Development or 360 Recruitment is highly desirable. This is a business-development-led, revenue-generating position, not an internal talent acquisition or recruitment delivery-only role.
- Life sciences experience is not required, but curiosity, commercial aptitude and a willingness to learn are essential.
Why Symbiotica?
We're growing our Montreal team and offer:
- Ambition, rewarded: A competitive base salary and uncapped commission, with a clear connection between the business you generate and your earnings.
- A meritocratic culture: Your results, initiative and contribution shape your earnings and progression. As we grow, we want our strongest performers to grow with us.
- Incentives worth working towards: Performance rewards, including opportunities to earn incentive trips.
