Medical Sales Recruiter
1099 Commission Only | Fully Remote | Independent Contractor
Overview
We are seeking a high-performing Medical Sales Recruiter with a proven track record of sourcing, attracting, and placing top-tier medical device sales representatives. This is a 1099, commission-only role designed for experienced recruiters who are ready to operate like true business owners: self-driven, accountable, and motivated by results. Ideal candidates already have a network or book of business within medical device sales and are comfortable running a full desk independently.
This is not a part-time, side-gig opportunity. We are looking for dedicated recruiters who can commit full-time or near full-time hours and who thrive in a fast-paced, client-driven environment across CST and EST time zones.

Medical Sales Representatives across:
• Surgical and Operating Room product lines (capital equipment, disposables, reusables, implants)
• Medical device specialties including robotics, endoscopy, orthopedics, spine, cardiovascular, respiratory, and durable equipment
• Pharma and biotech field sales roles
• Wound care, advanced tissue/skin substitutes, ostomy, and chronic-care product lines
• Other high-demand medical technologies including diagnostics, imaging, and health systems solutions
Responsibilities
• Manage full-cycle recruiting for medical sales roles, including sourcing, outreach, screening, client submissions, interview coordination, and offer management.
• Leverage your existing network and expand relationships with sales professionals across surgical, device, and pharma verticals.
• Conduct deep-dive screening to assess territory experience, quota history, ranking, clinical aptitude, and OR proficiency when applicable.
• Present qualified candidates with accuracy, speed, and professionalism.
• Maintain consistent weekly performance, strong communication, and proactive follow-through with both candidates and internal teams.
• Operate independently as a 1099 business owner, managing your own schedule, tools, sourcing strategies, and pipelines.
• Work fluidly across all US time zones (PST–EST) to support candidate and client availability.
Requirements
• Minimum 2 years of recent experience recruiting medical device sales representatives.
• Proven success placing candidates in surgical/OR-based roles, capital equipment sales, pharma sales, wound care, or comparable medical device verticals.
• Existing book of business or strong network within medical sales (preferred).
• Ability to commit to full-time or near full-time hours as an independent contractor.
• Strong sourcing ability using LinkedIn, job boards, referrals, and direct outreach.
• High sense of urgency, competitiveness, and ability to deliver consistent weekly output.
• Excellent time management and self-discipline; comfortable operating without oversight.
• Commission-only mindset with motivation to grow your pipeline and earnings.
Compensation
• 1099 independent contractor
• Commission-only structure
• Unlimited earning potential based on successful placements
• You manage your own tools, methods, and business expenses
