Sales Manager - Remote

Remote| Full-Time | EST Timezone (with overlap hours) 9:00 am - 6:00 pm (Mon-Fri) Applicants with no LinkedIn on their resume will not be contacted.

Role Purpose

We're looking for a Sales Manager to own business development and client acquisition for Flexihire Talent. You'll be responsible for building our sales pipeline, developing relationships with prospective clients, closing new business, and creating the processes that support long-term growth.

This is a hands-on, client-facing role for someone who does not need to be told what to do. We need someone who can identify opportunities, build processes, test strategies, improve what isn't working, and take ownership of results. You'll work directly with the CEO and play an important role in shaping how Flexihire Talent grows.

About Us

Flexihire Talent is an HR and recruitment firm serving startups and growing businesses across North America, Europe, and globally. We deliver HR operations, recruitment, payroll, and HR advisory, built on people-first values and done the right way.

We're a small, fast-moving team ourselves, and we hire people who want that same kind of ownership. If you like clear impact over corporate bureaucracy, you'll fit right in.

As a growing startup, we need someone who can contribute from day one. This role requires proven B2B sales and business development experience. We are not able to train candidates who are new to sales, so we can only consider applicants who already have the skills and track record outlined below.

• Manage the full sales cycle from prospecting and qualification through proposal, negotiation, closing, and client handoff
• Build and maintain strong relationships with prospects and clients
• Develop and test new business development strategies and outreach approaches
• Build, document, and continuously improve our sales processes, workflows, scripts, templates, and follow-up systems

• Track sales activity, conversion rates, pipeline value, closed business, and other key performance metrics
• Report directly to the CEO on sales performance, opportunities, risks, and recommended actions
• Work closely with recruitment, HR, and operations teams to ensure smooth onboarding and handoff of new clients
