Sales Recruitment: Hire Salespeople Who Can Actually Sell

A sales recruitment agency built around how selling actually works
Simpli5Sales is a sales recruitment agency that helps companies hire salespeople who can actually sell, not just interview well. We combine sales-specific sourcing, structured screening, and pre-hire assessment to build a shortlist you can trust, whether you're filling one critical sales seat or scaling an entire team.
No generalist recruiters, no keyword-matched résumés, every candidate is evaluated the way a sales hire should be: against your market, your deal cycle and the behaviours that predict quota performance.
- Roles we hire
- SDR to Sales Head
- Every shortlist
- Assessed before offer
- Built for
- One seat or a full team
Across levels and motions
Scorecards, not opinions
From single hire to scale
The challenge
The wrong sales hire is the most expensive hire you make.
A weak sales hire costs salary, territory, pipeline and time, and you usually find out two quarters late.
Interviews reward talkers
Confident storytelling in an interview is not the same as structured selling in a deal.
CVs describe context, not capability
A big number on a CV may belong to a brand, a territory or an inherited account base.
Generalist recruiters
Sourcing built on keyword matching cannot tell a hunter from a farmer, or SMB from enterprise.
No shared scorecard
Different interviewers assess different things, so the decision comes down to gut feel.
Why clients hire us

Our approach
The Simpli5Sales approach to sales hiring
We treat a hire like a deal: define the requirement precisely, qualify hard, and validate with evidence before commitment.
Step 1: Define the role
Motion, cycle, buyer, targets and the behaviours that predict success in your context.
Step 2: Source deliberately
Portal, referral network, community and direct outreach into active sales talent.
Step 3: Screen for selling
Structured sales interviews and scenario work, not a résumé conversation.
Step 4: Assess and recommend
Competency and behavioural assessment feeds a scorecard your panel can compare.

Focused, high-intensity sourcing when the role is clear but the candidate flow has dried up. We map the market against your scorecard, run direct outreach into active and passive sales talent, and deliver a qualified shortlist inside a fixed window.
