Recruiter — Life Science Staffing

ClinLab Solutions Group | Watertown, MA | Hybrid (3 in / 2 remote)

This Is a Sales Role. We Just Call It Recruiting.

If you're motivated by competition, driven by results, and want a career where your income reflects your effort — keep reading.

ClinLab Solutions Group is one of the fastest growing life science staffing firms in the country. We've been named to the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Private Companies list 6 years in a row and recognized by the Boston Business Journal — and we're still accelerating. We place scientists, researchers, and clinical professionals at the most innovative biotech, pharma, and med device companies in the US.

We're not looking for recruiters. We're looking for competitors who want to build something.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

This role is part sales, part relationship management, part problem-solving — all performance. You'll be responsible for identifying top scientific talent, building candidate pipelines, and placing professionals at leading life science companies across the country.

Day-to-day, that means:

Building and working a pipeline — sourcing candidates through a verity of platforms such as LinkedIn, databases, and referrals. Making calls, sending messages, and following up until you get a response. This is a high-activity role.

Running the full recruiting cycle — from first call to offer negotiation. You'll own the candidate relationship from sourcing through placement and beyond.

Partnering with your account managers — understanding exactly what clients need and delivering candidates that fit. You're the bridge between talent and opportunity.

Setting and meeting your numbers — placements, submissions. Your performance is visible, tracked, and rewarded.

What We're Looking For

No recruiting experience required. We hire for mindset and train for skill.

You're the right fit if you:

Are competitive by nature — you keep score, you hate losing, and you push yourself even when no one is watching
Have a relentless work ethic — you understand that results require reps, and you don't quit when it gets hard
Own your outcomes — you don't blame the market, the tools, or the timing. You find a way.
Are coachable — you take feedback, apply it, and come back better
Are always looking for more — more placements, more growth, more upside. You're never fully satisfied.

Backgrounds we love: sales, business development, athletics, military, hospitality, retail management, or anything that required you to hit a number and compete.

Bachelor's degree required. 0–2 years of experience. What matters most is what drives you.

What Winning Looks Like Here

Growth at ClinLab is performance-based — not tenure-based. The people who advance are the ones who produce, not the ones who've been here the longest.

Here's the trajectory:

Year 1: Learn the process, build your pipeline, make your first placements, become consistent
Year 2: Consistent producer, expanding your book, moving toward senior
Beyond: Recruiting Lead, Director, or transition into Business Development — we promote from within
