Senior Healthcare Recruiter — Scale Your Practice and Own Your Brand

Background

MLR is a tech-powered healthcare staffing and recruiting platform with nearly two decades of deep industry roots. Guided by a leadership team that lives at the intersection of healthcare and technology, we have built something genuinely different — a place where modern software and authentic human expertise work side by side to deliver outcomes that actually matter.

We were born from hard-won lessons about what was broken in traditional staffing. Lack of transparency, fragmented tools, and systems that burned out the very people driving results. So we rebuilt it from the ground up. Today, MLR connects healthcare organizations of every shape and size with the right talent, faster and with far greater precision — through a platform that fuses smart automation, seasoned recruiting instincts, and a genuine investment in the people doing the work.

We believe exceptional healthcare begins with exceptional people. And right now, we need exceptional people to help us find them.

Overview

You already know you are good at this. You have the instincts of a connector, the discipline of a closer, and the strategic mind of a consultant. But somewhere along the way, you started wondering if your current setup is actually built to take you where you want to go.

Here in Portland, Oregon, opportunity runs deep. This city pulses with a dynamic healthcare ecosystem, a culture that rewards ambition tempered by purpose, and a professional community that values relationship over transaction. Whether you are drawn to the energy of the Pearl District, the collaborative spirit of the tech and health corridors, or simply the quality of life that makes Portland one of the most livable cities in the Pacific Northwest — this is a place where a career can genuinely stretch.

We are bringing on experienced, entrepreneurial Senior Medical Sales and Healthcare Recruiters who are ready to stop just filling roles and start building something lasting. This is not another desk job with a slightly better comp plan. This is a launchpad — a platform designed to amplify who you already are, equipped with the tech, the marketing infrastructure, and the operational backbone to help you scale your impact and grow a personal recruiting brand that actually means something.

You will run full-cycle searches, own deep client partnerships, and be compensated at some of the highest commission rates in the industry — with no ceiling, no cap, and no apologies for rewarding real performance.

What You Will Do

You will take ownership of full-cycle searches from the very first intake conversation all the way through a signed offer. You will not be handed a script and told to dial. You will be trusted to think, strategize, and close.

Acting as a true client partner, you will invest the time to understand not just the job description but the culture, the team dynamics, and the pain points keeping hiring managers up at night. Your clients will come to see you as an advisor, not a vendor.

Sourcing will be both an art and a science here. You will work within our proprietary CRM and ATS platform, tap your own network, and leverage built-in communications tools that streamline outreach without stripping out the human touch. You will use the platform to manage candidates thoughtfully, automate the follow-ups that eat your day, and keep your pipeline organized in a way that actually holds up under pressure.

Permanent placements will be your north star — the kind that create long-term value for clients and serious earning power for you. And as we continue building our brand presence in the market, you will have the opportunity to contribute to thought leadership that elevates both our platform and your own professional reputation.

What You Will Get

We have spent real time and real resources building an infrastructure that removes the friction that slows most recruiters down. Everything here is designed to keep you focused on the two things that actually drive results: meaningful conversations and strong placements.

You will have full access to our all-in-one platform — CRM, ATS, and marketing communications wrapped into a single, clean interface. No more bouncing between seven tools. No more inbox archaeology. No more sticky note systems that collapse on a busy Thursday afternoon.

If growing your personal brand is part of the vision, we are actively here for it. We will help you build out a recruiter landing page, run targeted campaigns, and develop lead magnets that put your name in front of the right people. Your success is genuinely good for us, which means we invest in it like we mean it.

Our back-end recruiting operations team handles the administrative weight — contracts, credentialing, compliance, and copywriting — so you are not drowning in the details that have nothing to do with your core skill set. Performance-based compensation means high commission rates that go well beyond what most firms offer, with no artificial limits on what you can earn. And because we are fully remote with total schedule flexibility, you can build your practice from anywhere — including right here in the heart of the Pacific Northwest.

Who We Are Looking For

The ideal candidate brings two to three or more years of agency recruiting or consultative sales experience. A working knowledge of healthcare is a real advantage, but if you are new to the space and bring the right mindset, we are here to coach. You are skilled at managing complex client relationships, navigating the nuances of an offer negotiation, and closing with confidence.

You are comfortable inside an ATS or CRM environment — we will train you on ours specifically — and you carry an entrepreneurial energy that goes beyond just hitting numbers. You want to build something. You want your name to mean something in this industry. And you are ready to do the work that earns that.

What Sets Us Apart

We have no interest in micromanaging talented people. Our entire model is built around enabling them. Whether your goal is seven-figure commissions, executive-level client relationships across major health systems, or eventually launching your own vertical under our umbrella, we give you the infrastructure and the freedom to make it real.

This role is for senior recruiters ready to expand their reach, for medical sales professionals or healthcare insiders looking to pivot into a high-earning recruiting career, for agency veterans who are done fighting against capped commissions and administrative chaos, and for relationship builders who want to be paid in direct proportion to the value they create.

Let's Build Something Worth Talking About

We are 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 without limits, and grow your influence inside one of the most dynamic healthcare markets in the country, we want to talk.
