The Role

As our Business Development Representative, you'll be the first conversation many GTA employers have with Talentlink. Your mission is to open doors with mid-sized companies(roughly 100–500 employees) that hire general labour and warehouse staff, understand their workforce challenges, and turn those conversations into long-term client partnerships.

This is a hunter role. You'll spend most of your time prospecting, booking discovery meetings, and building a pipeline that keeps our recruiters busy.

What You'll Do

- Run multi-touch outreach through cold calls, email, LinkedIn and in-person drop-ins at industrial parks and distribution hubs
- Book and lead discovery meetings with operations managers, plant managers, HR leaders and site directors
- Learn each prospect's hiring volume, seasonal peaks, turnover pain points and safety requirements, and match them to the right staffing solution (temporary, temp-to-perm or direct hire)

and negotiate bill rates and terms
- Keep our CRM accurate and up to date: every call, email, meeting and next step
- Hand off new accounts smoothly to recruitment and stay involved through the first placements to make sure the client is happy
- Grow existing accounts by uncovering new sites, shifts and roles
- Hit weekly and monthly activity targets (calls, meetings booked, proposals sent) and quarterly revenue goals
- Bring market feedback back to the team: what competitors are offering, which industries are hiring, and what messaging is landing

What You Bring

- Self-motivation and organization: you can manage your own pipeline and calendar without someone looking over your shoulder
- Familiarity with CRM tools (HubSpot, Zoho, Salesforce or similar) and LinkedIn
- Knowledge of the GTA's industrial landscape, such as Mississauga, Brampton,Vaughan, Etobicoke, Milton and Scarborough
- A valid Ontario G driver's licence and access to a reliable vehicle for client visits

A Day in the Life

You might start the morning reviewing which GTA employers posted new warehouse jobs overnight, then block two hours for calls and LinkedIn outreach. After lunch, you're visiting a distribution centre in Brampton for a discovery meeting with their operations manager, then stopping by two neighbouring facilities to introduce yourself. You finish the day logging notes in the CRM and sending a proposal for a client that needs 15 forklift operators for peak season.
