This hybrid role blends business development, account management, and recruiting into a fast-paced, rewarding career path.

You’ll be both a strategic consultant and a revenue driver - meeting with hiring managers, understanding their talent needs, and offering tailored staffing solutions backed by Robert Half’s world-class resources.

• Source, interview, and match highly skilled professionals with client needs in project, contract, and contract-to-hire roles.
• Offer career coaching, feedback, and guidance to candidates throughout the hiring lifecycle.
• Maintain a diverse candidate pipeline to meet current and anticipated demand.

Business Development & CRM Excellence

• Document all client, and candidate activity in Salesforce.
• Analyze performance metrics, adjust strategies, and share insights with leadership.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or related field preferred.
• 2+ years’ experience in business development or staffing—preferably in a metrics-driven environment.
• Prior success working with multiple decision-makers and closing new business.
• Understanding of accounting and finance roles, terminology, and department structures.
• Excellent interpersonal, negotiation, and presentation skills.
• Positive attitude, self-starter mentality, and results-driven mindset.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and CRM/ATS systems (e.g., Salesforce, Workday).
