Executive Recruiter

About the Opportunity

A growing, high-performing professional services firm is adding to its Accounting & Finance practice in Philadelphia and is seeking a full desk recruiter to drive both business development and candidate delivery within the direct hire space.

This is a true 360 role—ideal for someone who enjoys building client relationships while also owning the recruiting side of the process. The team is open to experienced full desk recruiters as well as agency recruiters looking to step into a more sales-focused, direct hire environment.

What You’ll Do

• Generate new business within Accounting & Finance direct hire (perm) placements
• Build and manage client relationships across industries such as financial services, corporate finance, and professional services
• Run a full desk: business development, candidate sourcing, screening, and placement
• Partner directly with hiring managers on search strategy and execution
• Source and recruit A&F professionals (e.g., accountants, analysts, FP&A, leadership roles)
• Manage the full lifecycle from intake to offer negotiation and close

What We’re Looking For

• Experience in staffing/recruiting, ideally within Accounting & Finance or a related vertical
• Full desk experience preferred, but open to strong recruiters or sales professionals looking to expand
• Interest in direct hire (permanent placement) recruiting
• Proven ability—or strong desire—to generate new business
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a “hunter” mentality
• Strong communication skills and ability to manage both clients and candidates

What You Can Expect

• Ownership: True full desk model with control over your book of business
• Support: Access to leadership, tools, and internal resources to help you succeed
• Growth: Opportunity to build long-term client relationships and expand your desk
• Culture: Collaborative, performance-driven team with strong leadership and coaching

What Success Looks Like

• Building a consistent pipeline of both clients and candidates
• Driving direct hire placements and managing multiple searches simultaneously
• Generating weekly revenue through successful placements over time
• Maintaining a strong focus on new business development and relationship building

Why This Role?

This is a strong opportunity for someone who wants to run their own desk within Accounting & Finance direct hire, backed by a company that is investing in growth and offers the infrastructure to support it. With a collaborative team and clear path for success, you’ll have the ability to build something meaningful long-term.

If you’re looking for a full desk opportunity where you can own both sides of the business and grow your impact, let’s connect.
