We source, vet, and place high-performance SDRs and sales reps into B2B companies that are scaling and can't afford another bad hire. Built by operators who've run it at scale. Not recruiters who've read about it.
Hiring sales talent is the highest-stakes, lowest-quality process in most B2B companies. The wrong rep doesn't just cost you a salary. It costs you pipeline, momentum, and months you can't get back.
We fix that.
Most placement firms are run by ex-recruiters who've read about sales. Vantage Talent was built by someone who ran outbound operations at scale: over a million emails a month, tens of thousands of calls vetted and trained across every major industry and geography in the digital business world.
We've personally sat in the seat. Over a million outbound emails sent monthly for over a year. Thousands of calls vetted, qualified, and trained. We know what a high-performing SDR looks like before they touch your pipeline because we built those pipelines.
You receive 2–3 candidates. Pre-vetted, pre-qualified, matched to your ICP, culture, and comp structure. You make one decision, not forty. No wasted interviews. No CVs that don't fit.
From brief to shortlist in 7–10 days. We've built the systems to move fast without cutting corners — because a growth-stage company doesn't have 8 weeks to bleed pipeline waiting on a hire.
Finally a placement partner who actually understood our sales motion. They didn't just send warm bodies — they sent people who could hit the ground running.
We'd burned two hires from traditional recruiters. Vantage sent us one candidate who was exactly right. That rep is still our top performer.
They asked questions no recruiter had ever asked about our actual ICP, our outbound motion, what had failed before. That's when I knew.
Vantage Talent works with B2B founders and revenue leaders, not HR departments. If you're scaling fast and one wrong sales hire genuinely costs you momentum, this was built for you.
A direct path from open role to placed performer. No bloat, no delays.
We learn your business, ICP, sales motion, comp structure, and what's failed before. We decide together if we're the right fit.
We source, screen, and vet candidates against the exact profile we built together. You receive 2–3 fully briefed candidates, not a stack of CVs.
You hire. We support the handoff. If the placement doesn't work within 90 days, we replace at no additional cost.
You pay nothing until you hire someone we placed. Our fee is 18–22% of the placed rep's first-year OTE — only triggered when you make the hire. No retainer, no upfront cost.
Recruiters give you CV-screened strangers. We give you 2–3 operator-vetted candidates matched to your exact sales motion — by someone who has actually run outbound at scale.
Primarily SDRs, BDRs, and AEs for B2B companies with an outbound motion. We also place SDR Managers and Sales Team Leads.
If the placed rep leaves or is let go for performance within 90 days, we find a replacement at no additional placement fee.
Brief to shortlist in 7–10 business days for most roles. Built to move fast without sacrificing vetting quality.
Yes. We've operated across US, UK, European, and broader markets and have experience placing reps across multiple geographies.
Vantage Talent operates on a contingency basis. No upfront fee. No retainer to get started. Our fee is a percentage of the placed rep's first-year OTE, earned only when you make the hire.
If we don't place someone you want, you owe us nothing.
I've been inside the engine room of sales at scale. I know what a high-performing rep looks like before they walk in the door — because I've built the rooms they walk into.
I've managed outbound operations sending over a million emails a month, for over a year straight. I've vetted, trained, and qualified thousands of sales calls across almost every industry in the digital business world.
I've trained sales teams. I've trained clients how to build their own. I've built outbound systems from scratch and managed them across US, UK, Europe, and beyond. I've seen what separates a rep who produces from one who burns your pipeline — and it's rarely what shows up on a CV.
What I kept seeing was the same problem: companies gambling on sales hires and paying for it in lost pipeline and wasted months. Vantage Talent exists to fix that.
