Job Description

OneStaff Palmerston North is looking for an experienced and commercially driven Client Solutions Manager to join our team, managing and growing relationships across the Manawatu region.


We’re a proudly NZ-owned recruitment company with over 25 years in the industry and a strong national presence. We work with a broad range of clients across all industries and sectors providing temporary, permanent, technical/ specialist and contract resourcing solutions.


With continued growth across our region, we’re looking for someone who thrives on building relationships, uncovering opportunities and delivering solutions. You’ll combine account management with new business development, networking, prospecting, cold calling and engaging with businesses across the region; while working closely with our resourcing team to deliver for our clients and candidates.


The role:

  • Managing and developing an established portfolio of clients across the Manawatu region
  • Building new relationships and generating business through prospecting, networking and industry engagement
  • Identifying opportunities within existing accounts and growing our presence across key sectors
  • Partnering with clients to understand their workforce requirements and provide effective recruitment solutions
  • Resourcing across a variety of temporary, permanent and specialised roles
  • Partnering with our resourcing team to coordinate candidate delivery and meet client requirements.
  • Maintaining high standards of customer service, compliance and candidate care
  • Managing the day-to-day health and safety requirements of our temporary workforce, including client site assessments
  • Maintaining accurate information within our internal CRM and completing general administration associated with the role


What you'll bring:

  • Proven sales, business development and/or account management experience, ideally within recruitment or one of the diverse industries and sectors we support.
  • Strong commercial acumen and the confidence to identify opportunities, engage decision-makers and close business
  • Excellent relationship-building and negotiation skills
  • A proactive, motivated approach with the drive to generate new opportunities
  • A solutions-focused mindset and commitment to delivering on promises
  • The ability to build positive and respectful relationships with people from all walks of life
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, organisational ability and time management
  • Confidence using Microsoft Office 365 and CRM systems
  • A full, clean Class 1 driver's licence and the ability to pass a Ministry of Justice check


Recruitment experience would be an advantage, but it isn’t essential. What’s more important is a proven sales mindset and a genuine hunger for growth . We’re looking for someone with strong B2B sales, business development or account management experience who thrives on winning new business, building lasting relationships and identifying opportunities. You’ll be commercially driven, proactive and motivated to grow your own portfolio while contributing to the continued growth of the wider business.


What's on offer:

  • Competitive base salary reflective of your experience
  • Achievable bonus structure based on individual results
  • Company vehicle
  • Company phone and laptop
  • Full training and ongoing development
  • Birthday leave and long-service benefits
  • A supportive and collaborative local and national team
  • The autonomy to manage your portfolio, develop new business and own your results


This is primarily a Monday to Friday role; however, recruitment can occasionally require flexibility outside standard business hours to meet client and candidate needs. We value work-life balance and take a practical, give-and-take approach when additional hours are required.


If you're driven, commercially savvy and enjoy building genuine relationships, this is an opportunity to bring your sales experience into a fast-paced, people-focused business where your results make a real impact.
