Express Employment Professionals – Idaho Falls, ID

Overview

At Express Employment Professionals, we believe staffing is more than filling positions, it’s about building partnerships that help businesses grow and people succeed.

We are seeking a Business Development Manager who thrives on building relationships, understanding operations, and creating workforce solutions that make a real impact. This role blends in-person relationship building with proactive outreach, including phone sales and business-to-business cold calling.

This is not a transactional sales role. It’s a consultative position focused on long-term partnerships and solving real business challenges.

• Build and maintain strong relationships with local businesses across a variety of industries
• Conduct outbound phone sales and cold calling to introduce Express and generate new business opportunities
• Follow up consistently with prospects through calls, email, and in-person visits
• Identify workforce gaps and develop tailored staffing solutions
• Conduct client visits to understand operations, culture, and hiring needs
• Partner with internal recruiting teams to ensure alignment and delivery
• Manage and grow a portfolio of client accounts
• Drive new business through networking, referrals, and community involvement
• Act as a trusted advisor to clients on workforce trends, retention, and hiring strategy

• Self-motivated with the ability to manage time and priorities independently
• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation for client visits

• Collaborative team environment with strong internal support
• Ability to grow professionally while building a meaningful network in the community
