Search beyond titles
We recruit around the actual equipment, processes, systems and responsibilities behind the title so strong candidates are not missed because another plant calls the job something different.
MANUFACTURING SALES RECRUITING
Manufacturing Sales Recruiter
Recruit technical and industrial sales professionals who understand manufacturing customers, equipment, processes and long-cycle B2B sales.
SEARCH BY THE WORK, NOT JUST THE TITLE
Select what the sales professional needs to sell, who they need to sell to and how technical the role really is.
Titles vary from plant to plant. Compass searches around the actual work: equipment, software, processes, materials, controls, tolerances, standards and the environment where the person will succeed.
Select as much or as little as you know. We will use your choices to build a more useful search.
