About Us

HireHawk helps companies build high-performing offshore teams by connecting them with rigorously vetted global talent across Latin America, and South Africa. We go beyond traditional staffing by managing recruiting, payroll, compliance, and ongoing workforce support—so clients can scale with confidence. We’re building a globally distributed team that values ownership, high standards, and clear expectations.

Our client is seeking a proactive and commercially-minded Business Development Representative to help generate new business opportunities and support the agency's growth. This role is focused on building relationships with founders, executives, and business leaders through outbound outreach, primarily on LinkedIn, while identifying opportunities that translate into qualified meetings and revenue.

This is not a task-based lead generation role. The ideal candidate will think strategically, take ownership of outbound efforts, continuously improve performance, and operate as a trusted business development partner to the Founder.

• Monitor and improve key performance metrics including response rates, meeting bookings, and conversion rates 
• Test and refine messaging, targeting strategies, and outreach processes 
• Identify new channels, communities, partnerships, or opportunities to generate pipeline 
• Maintain accurate records of outreach activity and pipeline progress 
• Collaborate directly with the Founder to align business development efforts with company growth goals 
• Provide regular reporting and insights on campaign performance and sales activity 

Requirements

• Proven experience in Business Development, Sales Development, Outbound Sales, or B2B Lead Generation 
• Experience owning outbound prospecting efforts from research through booked meetings

• Comfortable working remotely and independently with minimal supervision 
• Experience with CRM platforms and pipeline management tools 
• Ability to learn new industries and quickly understand client value propositions 

Candidate Qualities

• Strong ownership mentality and accountability 
• Commercially minded and focused on business outcomes rather than activity alone 
• Naturally curious and resourceful 
• Proactive problem-solver who takes initiative without waiting for direction 
• Comfortable testing, learning, and optimizing processes independently 
• Relationship-builder who can engage founders and executives professionally 
• Data-driven and capable of making decisions based on performance metrics 
• Adaptable, coachable, and open to feedback 
• Professional, reliable, and highly self-motivated
