Everything EO
Employment Office (EO) is not a traditional 'employment agency' - we do things a little differently. We are a Recruitment Solutions Provider - an expert in recruitment marketing for organizations of all sizes and sectors. Our key strength lies in creating budget-savvy recruitment advertising campaigns, which blend proven attraction strategies with compelling copy to create a talent pool of quality candidates.
EO clients consist of organizations of all sizes and sectors, located in Canada and beyond. After ten years of high growth, we now have excellent market share across all industries. EO currently has branches in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, London. We have an office in Vancouver, and we're not stopping there as we are opening a new office in Toronto!
The parent company, Flight Centre Limited, has been ranked one of Canada's 50 'Best Employers to Work For' in the Globe and Mail's Report on Business Magazine, for the last eight consecutive years (including the number one position in 2002). For four of the last eight years, the organization has been in the top four!! Flight Centre began 27 years ago and have since grown to one of the world's latest travel agency groups, with more than 2,000 leisure, corporate and wholesale businesses, extending throughout the world.
Working with EO
Due to expansion, Employment Office has room to take on a talented Sales and Account Executive for our team, working from Flight Centre Limited's Toronto Corporate Headquarters.
In this role, the successful candidate will use their sales expertise to scout new leads, develop profitable client relationships, and secure fresh business opportunities. Your priority will be to sell Employment Office's recruitment services through cold calling businesses across Canada.
These roles are full-time, working from 8:30am to 5:00pm Monday to Friday only.
What we're looking for
Our ideal candidate does not need to have qualifications or experience in recruitment, but they do need buckets of ambition and an insatiable appetite for sales.
Two years of Business Development Management experience is required, as you will become an influential driving force in the growth of this team.
As this is primarily a B2B telephone sales, business development and account management role, you will need excellent communication skills and the ability to build relationships with business owners and HR managers who are seeking staff. We are looking for a candidate who has the passion, discipline and persuasiveness that comes with inside sales.
The Canadian market can be challenging, so a positive attitude, an unlimited supply of energy, and the determination to tackle problems head on is critical.
- We are looking for a sales extraordinaire who has experience in cold calling businesses and generating their own leads.
Basic computer and Internet literacy is a must, however if you regularly send and receive emails, visit websites, and can type reasonably quickly (even with two fingers) you'll be just fine.
We have a close-knit team of professionals who enjoy each other's company as well as their interaction with clients. EO team members sell a recruitment solution they are truly proud of, and enjoy the financial rewards that follow consistency and talent, without working hours that would preclude a successful work-life balance.
