Business Account Executive - Childcare Recruitment

Are you a driven, people-oriented sales professional looking to launch your career in a market-leading recruitment agency? We're growing fast and looking for a hungry Account Executive to help us expand our footprint across the childcare and OSHC sectors Nationally.

About Us

We're a childcare specialist recruitment agency with a strong reputation for connecting quality educators with the services that need them most. As one of the leading names in childcare recruitment, we're backed by a recognisable brand, a loyal client base, and serious momentum — and we're just getting started.

The Role

This is primarily a new business role — around 70% of your time will be focused on identifying and building a new client portfolio. You'll be building relationships with childcare centres and OSHC providers understanding their staffing challenges, and positioning our solutions to help them thrive.

· Proactively prospect and generate new business leads 

· Build and nurture relationships with centre directors, coordinators, and Management Teams

· Pitch and present our recruitment services to new clients

· Travel locally and interstate for client meetings and company conferences (with advance notice provided)

· Collaborate with our recruitment consultants to deliver seamless service

· Manage your pipeline and hit monthly new business targets

About You

· 0–2 years' experience in sales, business development, or account management (recruitment experience a bonus but not essential)

· Comfortable with cold calling, door knocking, and getting in front of people face-to-face

· Willing and able to travel locally and interstate when required

· A natural communicator who loves meeting new people and building trust

· Self-motivated, resilient, and comfortable picking up the phone

· Curious about the childcare and education sector

· Organised, target-driven, and eager to grow

· Familiarity with a CRM system such as HubSpot is a bonus — but if you haven't used one before, we'll get you up to speed

What's In It For You

· $75,000 – $85,000 base salary + uncapped commission — your effort directly drives your earnings

· Own your day — you plan your schedule and decide how to approach your week. There's no micromanagement here; you'll be trusted to get on with it. Management is always on hand to step in with guidance and support whenever you need it, but how you run your day is up to you

· Hybrid work arrangement — 4 days in the office, 1 day working from home

· Genuine career progression with plenty of room to grow within the company

· Hands-on support and mentorship from a senior management team invested in your success

· Work under an established, respected brand with strong market presence

· Travel opportunities locally and interstate for conferences and client engagement
