Senior Healthcare Recruiter — Scale Your Practice, Build Your Brand, and Own Your Future

Background

MLR is a tech-enabled healthcare staffing and recruiting platform rooted in two decades of industry expertise. Guided by leaders who understand both the human and digital sides of talent acquisition, we've built something genuinely different — a system that fuses cutting-edge automation with the kind of high-touch, relationship-driven recruiting that actually moves the needle.

We didn't build MLR by accident. We built it because we saw what was broken — the opacity, the inefficiency, the ceiling that kept great recruiters from becoming truly great. Our platform was designed from the ground up to prioritize transparency, performance, and community. Today, healthcare organizations across the country rely on us to connect them with the right people, faster and more meaningfully than ever before.

Because we believe, deeply, that great healthcare starts with great people. And we need remarkable people to help us find them.

Overview

Let's be honest — if you've been in recruiting long enough, you've probably hit a wall. Maybe it's a commission cap. Maybe it's the administrative chaos of juggling a dozen disconnected tools. Maybe it's the feeling that no matter how hard you hustle, you're building someone else's book of business instead of your own.

That changes here.

We're actively seeking experienced, entrepreneurially-minded recruiters to join the MLR team as Senior Medical Sales and Healthcare Recruiters. This isn't just another desk at another agency. This is a genuine launchpad — a place where the infrastructure, the technology, and the marketing muscle are all pointed in one direction: amplifying you.

You'll run full-cycle searches. You'll develop the kind of client relationships that last years, not quarters. And you'll do it all with access to some of the most competitive commission structures in the industry — uncapped, unfiltered, and directly tied to the impact you create.

Oakland, California is your backdrop for this opportunity. A city that pulses with ambition, creativity, and a fierce sense of community, Oakland sits at the heart of one of the most dynamic healthcare ecosystems in the country. The Bay Area is home to world-class medical institutions, innovative health tech companies, and a growing demand for top-tier clinical and administrative talent. It is a market that rewards expertise, and MLR gives you everything you need to meet that market head-on.

What You Will Do

You will own full-cycle search engagements from the initial intake call all the way through offer acceptance and close. You will show up as a true client partner — someone who takes the time to understand not just the open role, but the culture, the pain points, and the long-term hiring vision of every organization you serve.

Sourcing will be both strategic and systematic. You will leverage our proprietary CRM and ATS platform, your own professional network, and our built-in communications tools to identify and engage the right candidates — not just the available ones. You will use our platform to manage pipelines, automate follow-ups, and keep your work organized without the mental overhead of toggling between seven different systems.

Your focus will be on permanent placements that generate long-term value for your clients and meaningful commission for you. And as MLR continues to grow its presence and thought leadership in the healthcare space, you will have the opportunity to grow right alongside it — contributing your voice, your expertise, and your personal brand to something bigger.

What You Will Get

We have spent considerable time and energy building an operational backbone that removes the friction that slows most recruiters down. Here is what that looks like in practice.

You will have access to our all-in-one tech platform — a single, streamlined interface that combines CRM, ATS, and marketing communications so you can stop drowning in post-it notes and start focusing on results. You will receive dedicated marketing support to help you build and grow your personal recruiting brand, including custom landing pages, outreach campaigns, and lead generation tools that work while you sleep.

On the back end, our operations team handles contracts, credentialing, copywriting, and compliance — the administrative weight that typically eats hours out of a recruiter's week. You will not be doing that alone. You will be supported.

Compensation is performance-based with commission rates that genuinely eclipse industry norms. There is no cap and no ceiling. The value you create is the value you earn. And because we are fully remote and built for flexibility, you can do this work from anywhere — including Oakland's thriving network of co-working spaces, coffee shops, and innovation hubs that make showing up feel like anything but a chore.

Ideal Candidate

We are looking for recruiters with two to three or more years of agency recruiting or consultative sales experience. A strong working knowledge of the healthcare industry is a significant plus, though we are absolutely willing to coach the right person with the right mindset. You should be confident managing complex client relationships, skilled at closing offers, and comfortable navigating ATS and CRM systems — we will train you on ours specifically.

Above all, we are looking for someone with an entrepreneurial spirit. Someone who is not just looking for a job, but who wants to build something that lasts.

What Sets Us Apart

Micromanagement is not part of our vocabulary. Enablement is. Every element of the MLR model — from our technology stack to our marketing support to our commission structure — is designed to help you scale. Not just your placements, but your entire recruiting practice.

Whether your north star is seven-figure commissions, a roster of executive-level client relationships, or launching your own vertical under the MLR banner, we give you the tools, the team, and the freedom to make it happen.

Who This Role Is For

This opportunity was built for senior recruiters who are ready to stop playing small and start playing at the level they have always known they were capable of. It is for medical sales professionals and healthcare insiders who are ready to pivot into recruiting with a platform that rewards their industry knowledge. It is for agency recruiters who are exhausted by administrative chaos and tired of watching their earnings get capped. And it is for relationship builders who want to be compensated not for the hours they log, but for the genuine impact they create.

Let's Redefine Recruiting Together

MLR is not a traditional staffing agency. We are a tech-enabled recruiting platform that treats senior recruiters like the strategic partners they are. If you are ready to work smarter, earn bigger, and grow your influence in one of the most rewarding and mission-driven industries in the world, we would love to talk.
