About the Role

We are looking for a results-driven Business Development Executive to grow our recruitment and manpower placement business in Singapore.

Your primary responsibility is to acquire new employer clients and secure recruitment job orders.

This is a business development and client acquisition role, not merely a candidate sourcing or CV screening position.

We provide recruitment services for Work Permit (WP), S Pass and Employment Pass (EP) positions across various industries.

Key Responsibilities

• Actively identify, approach and acquire new corporate clients requiring manpower and recruitment services.

• Generate leads through cold calling, networking, referrals, client visits and other business development activities.

• Secure recruitment job orders and negotiate service agreements with employers.

• Develop long-term relationships with clients to generate repeat business.

• Coordinate with recruitment and sourcing teams to fulfil client hiring requirements.

• Manage the full sales cycle, from prospecting and client meetings to contract signing and successful placements.

• Achieve monthly client acquisition, job order and revenue targets.

• Ensure compliance with Singapore employment agency regulations.

Requirements

• Valid CEI (Certificate of Employment Intermediaries) certification is mandatory.

• Experience in Singapore's recruitment, employment agency or manpower industry is strongly preferred.

• Proven ability to independently acquire employer clients and generate recruitment job orders.

• Strong B2B sales, negotiation and relationship management skills.

• Familiarity with WP, S Pass and EP recruitment processes is an advantage.

• Proactive, target-driven and confident in approaching new corporate clients.

• Able to work independently with minimal supervision.

• Existing employer networks or corporate client relationships will be a strong advantage.

What We Offer

• Competitive basic salary of S$2,800 – S$3,500.

• Attractive commission for successful placements and self-developed employer accounts.

• Performance-based incentives.

• Opportunity to build and manage your own corporate client portfolio.

• Recruitment and operational support.

• Career growth opportunities within an expanding recruitment business.

What Success Looks Like

We value measurable business results, particularly:

• New employer accounts acquired.

• Confirmed recruitment job orders secured.

• Successful placements and repeat business.

• Recruitment revenue and gross profit generated.

We are looking for someone who can bring in hiring companies, not just candidates.
