San Diego, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 7/28/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 9/20/2026

San Diego, CA

Base: $55,000 uncapped commission


If you’re looking for a role where your effort directly impacts how fast you grow, and how much you earn, this is it.


This team doesn’t operate on “wait your turn” progression. Performance drives everything. The people who hit their numbers move quickly, whether that’s higher earnings, bigger accounts, or leadership opportunities.


It’s also a business that genuinely promotes from within, many of our senior leaders started out in this exact role and built their careers step by step.


What you’ll be doing

You’ll join a STEM-focused recruitment team, working in a highly commercial, relationship-driven environment.

This is a sales role at its core, you’ll be building new client partnerships, managing hiring processes end-to-end, and advising candidates on career moves that can change their trajectory.

It’s fast-paced, sometimes challenging, but highly rewarding for people who are competitive and want to see tangible results from their work.


What you can expect:

  • $55,000 starting salary uncapped commission
  • Uncapped commission structure from day one
  • High performers significantly exceeding that (top billers earning well into five figures monthly in commission)
  • Structured onboarding plus ongoing training
  • Direct mentorship from experienced, high-performing consultants
  • Clearly defined progression tied to performance, not tenure
  • Hybrid flexibility (1 day work-from-home)
  • A team environment with strong retention and long-term career paths


Who this suits:

We’re open on background, but typically this aligns with someone who has:

  • Some exposure to sales (B2B, internship, or similar), or
  • Early experience in recruitment/staffing, or
  • A recent graduate with a strong interest in a commercial career


More importantly, you:

  • Are motivated by results and earning potential
  • Thrive in a target-driven environment
  • Bring energy, resilience, and a competitive mindset
  • Want a career where progression is earned, not waited for


If you’re looking for a role where you can build real momentum early in your career, and are willing to work for it, let’s connect.
