Senior Business Development Manager – IT Recruitment & Solutions

Zurich | Hybrid Working | Uncapped Commission up to 35%

Are you an experienced Sales or Business Development professional looking for the opportunity to take real ownership of your market, build strategic client relationships and be rewarded directly for your success? Would you like to focus entirely on winning and developing clients, without the demands of candidate sourcing and recruitment delivery?

If so, this could be the ideal next step in your career.

Who are we

Nicoll Curtin is an award-winning international recruitment business with nearly 30 years of experience partnering with leading organisations across the financial services, technology and commercial sectors.

Established in Zurich in 2013, our Swiss business combines the agility and entrepreneurial environment of a small local team with the infrastructure, reputation and delivery capabilities of an established international organisation.

As we enter our next phase of growth, we are looking for an ambitious and commercially driven Business Development professional to help us expand our contract recruitment and wider IT solutions offering across Switzerland and mainland Europe.

The opportunity

This is a genuine 180° business development position, allowing you to concentrate on what you do best: identifying opportunities, building relationships and winning business.

Working directly alongside the Managing Director, you will take ownership of developing dormant accounts, identifying and securing new strategic clients, and introducing our wider service offering.

Our established recruitment delivery team will take responsibility for sourcing and placing candidates, allowing you to focus on client acquisition, account development and revenue generation.

Our services include permanent and contract recruitment, Managed Services, Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) and an expanding IT Projects offering.

What are we looking for?

We are interested in speaking with individuals who bring:

• A proven track record in B2B sales, business development or recruitment sales.
• Experience developing new business relationships and winning strategic accounts.
• The confidence to engage with senior stakeholders and decision-makers.
• A naturally ambitious, inquisitive, tenacious and entrepreneurial mindset.
• The ability to work independently and take ownership of commercial opportunities.Ideally, German or Swiss German language skills, although exceptional English-speaking candidates will also be considered.

Previous recruitment industry experience would be advantageous, but we are equally interested in commercially successful sales professionals from related industries.

What can we offer you?

• Uncapped commission of up to 35% of revenue generated, with no threshold.
• A genuine 180° position with dedicated recruitment delivery support.
• The opportunity to work directly with the Managing Director and influence our commercial growth strategy.
• The freedom to develop strategic accounts and expand your market across Switzerland and Europe.
• The backing of an established international recruitment business without the bureaucracy of a large corporate environment.
• A hybrid working model: three days in our centrally located Bahnhofstrasse office and two days working remotely.
• A mature, autonomous and results-focused working environment where you will be trusted to manage your own business.

If you are looking for a role where your commercial ability directly influences both your earnings and the growth of the business, we would be delighted to hear from you.
