MARS Solutions Group is looking for a Business Development Manager to help build and expand our Engineering, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain staffing practice.

This is a major growth area for MARS, and we’re looking for someone who can develop relationships with manufacturers and other organizations hiring specialized engineering, operations, manufacturing, and supply chain talent.

The ideal candidate has experience selling staffing, professional services, or workforce solutions into manufacturing and engineering organizations and understands how to develop business beyond a single hiring manager.

Develop new accounts across manufacturing, engineering, operations, and supply chain

Build relationships with engineering, plant, operations, supply chain, IT/OT, and executive leadership

Identify contract, contract-to-hire, and permanent placement opportunities

Expand MARS relationships across multiple departments and locations within client organizations

Conduct client discovery and intake meetings to understand workforce challenges and technical requirements

Partner with MARS recruiting teams to develop sourcing and delivery strategies for specialized positions

Build a consistent pipeline through outbound prospecting, referrals, networking, and existing relationships

Negotiate staffing agreements, pricing, and engagement terms

Develop long-term strategic relationships rather than transactional placements

Represent MARS at client sites, industry events, and networking opportunities

Hiring needs may include:

Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, and Industrial Engineering

Specialized technical and hard-to-fill positions

3+ years of business development, account management, staffing, professional services, or related B2B sales experience

Experience selling into manufacturing, engineering, industrial, or supply chain organizations strongly preferred

Demonstrated ability to develop new accounts and expand existing relationships

Understanding of contract staffing, contract-to-hire, and direct-hire models

Ability to communicate credibly with engineering, operations, supply chain, HR/TA, and executive stakeholders

Strong prospecting, relationship development, negotiation, and closing skills

Ability to independently manage a territory and sales pipeline

Experience partnering with recruiting teams on specialized or difficult-to-fill positions

Existing relationships within the Atlanta, Dallas, Charlotte, Chicago, or Milwaukee markets are a plus

This person will have an opportunity to help shape a growing MARS practice. As the business expands, there will be opportunities to move into sales or practice leadership.

For someone who prefers to remain an individual contributor, MARS also offers the opportunity to build a significant book of business and maximize earnings without being forced into management.

MARS offers a competitive base salary plus an aggressive commission structure, supported by recruiting and delivery capabilities in the United States and international markets.
