Read about our approach (or watch the video)

We know the best sales professionals are rare and they are extremely difficult to find through traditional recruitment methods. The reality is: successful salespeople are not looking for work, they are working, and need to be proactively recruited.

We complete an exhaustive search of all relevant candidates working within your industry, contact them directly, and pitch them on your opportunity. We then interview and assess the best talent before presentation to our clients.

If you’re looking to hire Great Salespeople, with proven talent, anywhere in the world, we invite you to connect and schedule a recruitment discovery call.

What clients say about us…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Boomerang Media has used The Sales Experts for senior sales recruitment over the past year during what has been an extremely challenging time for recruitment. Their approach is thoroughly professional, consultative, diligent, has scored notable successes for this company and has proved highly cost-effective. We intend to continue using Wyn and his team going forward. I cannot recommend them enough.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Working with The Sales Experts has been phenomenal! Right off the bat, the search for our resources in the US and Europe has been easier and way faster compared to the other recruiting firms we’ve contracted to help find our needed niche resources (not just sales by the way). We’ve been really impressed with TSE’s speed, resourcefulness, and the quality of the candidates that have been endorsed to us. And with a very professional team, it is a real pleasure to work with them!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The Sales Experts were an amazing partner in our search for highly talented Business Development VP’s to head up our sales team. They vetted all possible candidates and presented options that were well prepared and on brief. We hired 3 outstanding executives. All in this was a great experience for Spark and I would not hesitate to recommend The Sales Experts to anyone looking to find experienced sales professional.

Your Five-Stage Sales Head-Hunting Process

1. Define the Search

We work closely with you to understand the unique challenges of the role and your business.
We help clarify the skills, experience, and mindset needed—and where useful, challenge assumptions and offer new ways to frame the position.
You’ll receive a detailed role and candidate brief, aligned with your goals, priorities, and success metrics.

2. Build the Search Strategy

We research your industry and target markets to identify high-performing sales talent with the right skills and experience.
You get a longlist of real, qualified options—not recycled CVs.
We also tap into third-party sources and networks to uncover passive candidates and validate early prospects.

3. Engage and Assess Candidates

We speak directly with selected candidates, using insight into their goals and motivators to spark genuine interest.
Every serious candidate goes through a competency-based interview tied to the role’s core requirements.
Only those who meet your criteria and show real interest make the shortlist.

4. Present Final Candidates

You receive a shortlist backed by thorough assessment, including:

  • Detailed candidate insights

  • Our proprietary Sales Hunter Intelligence Evaluation

  • Unedited CVs and Sales Assessment Profiles
    We also gather informal third-party feedback to validate each candidate’s track record and reputation.

5. Finalise and Follow Through

Once you select your preferred candidate, we:
