Win the clients. We’ll fill the jobs.
Most recruiters spend half their week sourcing, screening, and chasing candidates. At Spencer Ogden, you won’t. Our New York Contract team is built around business development, and a dedicated delivery team in Houston does nothing but fill the roles you win
sourcing, shortlisting, and coordinating the process from brief to start date.
You bring in the clients and the jobs. They get the right contractors in front of your clients, fast. You get the revenue, the relationships, and the commission.
The Market You’ll Own
North America is in the middle of an infrastructure build-out on a scale we haven’t seen in decades, and it’s short on skilled people to deliver it. Spencer Ogden partners with the companies behind it:
Renewable energy:
utility-scale solar, wind, and storage developers and EPCs
Grid modernization and power
transmission, distribution, substations, and utilities upgrading aging infrastructure
Data centers and digital infrastructure:
one of the fastest-growing sources of demand for engineering, construction, and project talent in the country
Sustainability and ESG:
decarbonization, energy transition, and compliance-driven programs
These projects run on contract talent: project managers, engineers, commissioning specialists, schedulers, and technical experts brought in for the life of a build. Demand is strong, rates are healthy, and the best contractors are hard to find. That’s where we come in.
What You’ll Be Doing
Winning new business

Negotiate terms of business, rates, and margins, and pursue PSL/MSP/VMS positions where relevant
Track project awards, funding announcements, M&A, and policy shifts to get to clients before the hiring starts
Growing your accounts
Act as the strategic point of contact for your clients, with regular reviews and feedback loops
Expand wallet share across new teams, locations, and skill sets
Take detailed job briefs and advise clients on market conditions, rates, and timelines

Working with your delivery team

Running your desk commercially
Hit and exceed targets for new accounts, contractors on assignment, gross profit, and activity
Keep CRM data accurate and report on pipeline and forecast
Contribute to team strategy and mentor newer consultants as you grow
