• This role focuses operationally on the U.S. while being contractually based in Germany.
• This is a commercial (client-facing) role within an agency environment — not an internal corporate recruiting position.

• Working hours aligned with U.S. business hours
• Typically between 14:00–20:00 CET

Key Responsibilities

• Identify and approach target companies within the U.S. electronics and semiconductor market
• Conduct structured outbound outreach (primarily phone-based) to relevant decision makers
• Generate and qualify new business opportunities (discovery calls)
• Lead initial client conversations and assess hiring needs
• Convert qualified opportunities into active recruitment mandates
• Manage early-stage client relationships and ensure smooth handover into the recruitment process
• Collaborate closely with recruiters to align client expectations and candidate delivery
• Maintain a consistent pipeline of new opportunities and market activity
• Contribute to the overall development of our U.S. market approach

Qualifications

• Experience in a recruitment agency environment or strong exposure to recruitment processes
• Experience in business development, client acquisition, or sales (preferably in a service-based environment)
• Comfortable with proactive outreach and phone-based communication
• Ability to structure conversations and guide prospects toward concrete hiring discussions
• Strong communication skills and commercial awareness
• Professional-level English (written and spoken)
• Experience with the U.S. market is a strong advantage

Compensation

• Fixed base salary (Germany-based part-time contract)
• Performance-based commission tied to successful placements
• Uncapped earning potential aligned with business contribution

What We Offer

• Remote-first setup
• Clear niche focus — no volume-driven sales environment
• Close collaboration with experienced recruiters
• High level of autonomy and ownership
• Opportunity to actively shape and grow our U.S. business
