About UpRise Labs-
UpRise Labs partners with growing companies on strategy, operations, and growth — and now runs their hiring mandates end-to-end. One partner, from your business plan to the people who execute it. We are specialists in framework implementation, growth, and execution. We apply our full range of talent — strategic and operational — to build the right solution for each client's stage and needs.
About the Role-
We're looking for a driven Business Development Executive to generate and close recruitment mandates for UpRise Labs. In this role, you'll identify companies with active hiring needs and pitch our end-to-end hiring solution with clarity and conviction. It's a high-ownership, target-driven position, ideal for someone who thrives on outreach, builds strong relationships, and knows how to close.
Key Responsibilities-
-Identify and prospect potential clients (HR/TA leaders, business owners, operations heads) with active or upcoming hiring needs across volume, technical, sales, ops, and leadership roles
-Generate and drive recruitment mandates through cold outreach, networking, LinkedIn, email campaigns, and referrals
-Own the end-to-end sales cycle: lead generation → discovery calls → mandate scoping → negotiation → mandate closure
-Build and maintain a strong pipeline of prospective clients using CRM tools
-Hand off closed mandates to the delivery/recruitment team with clear role, level, must-haves, and timeline, ensuring a smooth mandate-to-joining handover
-Maintain relationships with existing clients to identify repeat mandates and expand hiring scope (volume, technical, leadership)
-Track and report on outreach activity, pipeline status, and mandate conversion metrics
-Stay current on hiring trends, competitor staffing offerings, and the broader recruitment landscape to sharpen pitches.
Requirements
-1–3 years of experience in business development, sales, or client acquisition — preferably in staffing, recruitment, or B2B services
-Proven ability to generate leads and close deals independently
-Strong communication, negotiation, and interpersonal skills
-Comfortable with cold calling, cold emailing, and LinkedIn outreach
-Self-starter with a target-driven mindset and ability to work with minimal supervision
-Understanding of high-volume and blue-collar hiring dynamics is a strong plus
-Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field preferred
What We Offer
-Competitive fixed salary + performance-based incentives
-Opportunity to work directly with the founding/leadership team
-Fast-paced environment with high ownership and growth potential
-Exposure to AI-powered hiring technology and high-volume workforce solutions
