Technical Recruiter

MMD Services Inc. is a recognized Woman-Owned Staffing Boutique, renowned for its expertise in delivering top-notch staffing solutions. Our services include traditional Contract, Contract-to-Hire, and Direct Placement options for a wide range of roles within the Technical and Finance domains.

This role is open due to account growth and an increase in client hiring needs. While we offer a base salary, earning potential is contingent on successful placement. MMD has created a custom-made highly competitive commission structure to incentivize hard work and consistency.

We work with clients in a wide range of industries - retail, consumer product, eComm, energy, logistics, distribution, manufacturing, healthcare, automotive, hospitality, insurance, and more.
