Business Development Executive(Recruitment)

Hansing Recruitment Pte. Ltd. | Singapore

We are looking for a Business Development Executive to win new clients and grow our recruitment business in Singapore. You’ll speak with hiring managers and HR teams, understand the roles they need to fill, and work with our recruiters to turn those conversations into successful placements. You’ll build your own client portfolio, with an initial focus on technology, financial services and related industries.

Key responsibilities

• Research target companies, identify hiring decision-makers, and generate leads through different job platforms, email, calls, referrals, and networking.

• Meet prospective clients to understand their hiring priorities, role requirements, timelines, and challenges.

• Present our recruitment services, prepare proposals, and discuss service terms with prospective clients.

• Brief the recruitment team on new assignments and coordinate client feedback, interviews, and follow-ups through placement.

• Build relationships with existing clients and identify opportunities to support their future hiring needs.

• Keep the CRM updated and track outreach, client meetings, new accounts, and job orders against agreed targets.

What we’re looking for

• Clear communication skills and confidence starting conversations with new people.

• A proactive approach to prospecting and the persistence to follow up when an initial message goes unanswered.

• Strong listening and organisational skills, with the ability to manage several client conversations at once.

• An interest in recruitment and curiosity about how companies hire across different industries.

• Experience in sales, business development, recruitment, or a client-facing role is an advantage.
