We’re searching for a New Business Development Sales Manager to join our U.S. Mining Staffing Vertical. If you’re driven, competitive, and thrive in a team that celebrates success together, this is your opportunity to make an immediate impact.
In this role, you’ll help expand Brunel’s mining presence across the U.S., developing long-term partnerships with clients who rely on us for top technical and professional talent.

Key Responsibilities:
- Identify and develop new business opportunities through networking, prospecting, and cold calling.
- Build and maintain a strong client pipeline across the U.S. mining sector.
- Lead business meetings and client presentations, promoting Brunel’s full-service staffing solutions — including contract, direct hire, retained search, and RPO.
- Serve as the primary contact for new clients and manage the full business development lifecycle from lead generation through contract negotiation.

- Partner with internal recruiting teams to ensure exceptional service delivery and client satisfaction.
- Contribute to brand awareness initiatives and continuously improve the customer experience.
Requirements:
- Minimum 3 years of proven business development experience in the staffing industry; mining or technical sector experience strongly preferred.
- Demonstrated success in relationship-based sales, not transactional.
- Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration or related field (or equivalent experience).
- Strong communication, presentation, and negotiation skills.
- Highly organized, self-motivated, and results-oriented.
- High degree of integrity and professionalism.
- Willingness to travel (up to 10%) to client sites nationwide.
