Business Development Representative in KNOXVILLE, TN…

• Launch Your Sales Career in Construction Staffing
• Base Salary + Uncapped Monthly Commissions + Company Vehicle

Just graduated from college? Built your people skills in restaurants, hospitality, retail, customer service, or bartending?

If you're competitive, outgoing, and enjoy meeting new people, this could be the career opportunity you've been looking for.

At HireQuest Direct, we're not looking for years of sales experience—we're looking for motivated individuals who know how to build relationships, communicate with confidence, and hustle when it counts. We'll teach you the rest.

This is an opportunity to break into business-to-business sales with a growing national company, earn uncapped commissions, and build a career with significant advancement potential.

Why This Role Is Different

Every day, construction companies need reliable workers to keep projects moving. Your job is to become a trusted partner to those businesses by helping them solve staffing challenges quickly and effectively.

You'll spend your time meeting people, building relationships, networking, visiting job sites, and growing your own territory. No sitting behind a desk all day.

What You'll Do

• Build relationships with construction companies, project managers, and job site leaders
• Visit client offices and active construction sites throughout your territory
• Prospect for new business through face-to-face visits, networking, and referrals
• Grow and maintain long-term client partnerships
• Work closely with our operations team to ensure exceptional customer service
• Attend networking events, association meetings, golf tournaments, and community events
• Manage your own territory with increasing independence and flexibility

What Makes You a Great Fit

• Restaurants and hospitality
• Bartending
• Retail sales
• Customer service
• Banking
• Recruiting
• Event management
• Sports or student leadership organizations

We're looking for people who are…

• Comfortable talking to anyone and building relationships quickly
• Competitive, driven, and motivated by goals
• Self-starters who enjoy being out in the field
• Professional and dependable
• Organized with strong follow-through
• Eager to learn and grow into a successful sales career

No construction or staffing experience required. We provide training and ongoing support.

What You'll Get

• Competitive base salary
• Uncapped monthly commission opportunities
• Monthly bonuses and sales incentives
• Company vehicle
• Company card for client meetings and networking activities
• Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and paid time off
• Comprehensive sales training and mentorship

Build a Career, Not Just a Job

Many successful sales professionals started in restaurants, hospitality, and customer service. If you've learned how to work hard, think on your feet, build relationships, and provide exceptional service, you already have the foundation to succeed.

Join a team that will invest in your growth and help you turn those skills into a rewarding sales career.
