Appointment Setter

Company Overview

Eyonzy Recruitment is a specialist shore-based maritime recruitment firm focused exclusively on placing high-quality professionals in onshore roles within the shipping, cruise, and maritime sectors. We work with leading companies across the EU, US, and Canada. As a small, high-performing team, we are now scaling our new business development efforts to consistently secure new job orders.

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced part-time Appointment Setter to join our team on a remote, contractor basis. Your primary responsibility will be to conduct targeted outbound prospecting on behalf of our Managing Director (MD) using a “ghost” model – meaning you will operate directly from the MD’s LinkedIn profile and email account to send personalised messages, follow-ups, and book qualified sales meetings with hiring managers and decision-makers at our pre-qualified target companies.

This is a results-oriented role with strong earning potential through performance bonuses.

Key Responsibilities

- Conduct daily outbound prospecting (LinkedIn messages, InMails, connection requests, and emails) using the MD’s LinkedIn and email accounts.
- Research and identify the correct hiring managers/decision-makers within our list of 120 target companies.
- Craft and send personalised, professional outreach messages following provided scripts and guidelines while adapting to responses.
- Manage follow-up sequences (typically 5–8 touchpoints) to maximise response rates.
- Book qualified discovery calls directly into the MD’s calendar (via Calendly).
- Log all activity, responses, and outcomes in our simple CRM/tracking sheet.
- Maintain the highest standards of professionalism and brand voice at all times when representing the MD.

Working Hours (UK Time)
- Part-time: 20 hours per week, Monday to Friday.
- Core hours: 6:30 AM – 10:30 AM UK time (to ensure good overlap with EU and North American prospects).
- First 2 weeks (training period): 9:30 AM – 1:30 PM UK time for live training, screen-sharing, and feedback sessions with the MD.

Requirements

- Proven experience as an Appointment Setter, SDR/BDR, or similar cold outreach role in B2B services (ideally recruitment, staffing, professional services, or maritime-related industries).
- Demonstrable track record of successfully booking qualified B2B meetings via LinkedIn and email outreach.
- Excellent written English – professional, concise, and persuasive communication skills are essential.
- Comfortable and experienced working in a “ghost” capacity using someone else’s LinkedIn and email accounts (previous examples required).
- Familiarity with LinkedIn Sales Navigator (preferred).
- Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
- Reliable high-speed internet, quiet workspace, and ability to screen-share daily during training.
- Must be available to start within 2–3 weeks.

Compensation

- Base rate: depending on experience and proven results, paid monthly.
- Performance bonus: $100 for every new client that signs a recruitment agreement and on which we actively work (i.e., placements are made or searches are underway).
- Paid 1-week trial period at agreed hourly rate to assess fit and performance.

What Success Looks Like
- Month 1 (ramp-up): 6–10 qualified meetings booked.
- Month 2 onwards: 12–18 qualified meetings per month.
- Consistent daily activity levels (50–100 targeted outreaches per day).

How to Apply
Please submit:
1. Your CV/resume highlighting relevant appointment-setting experience.
2. A brief cover note explaining:
- Your experience working in a ghost model (using someone else’s profiles).
- Approximate number of B2B meetings you have booked in previous roles (monthly average).
- Why you’re interested in this niche (mar ---------- -based recruitment is a plus but not required).
3. Links to your LinkedIn profile and any testimonials/references.

Applications should be sent to [insert your application email or Upwork job link].

We are looking to move quickly and aim to hire within the next 2–3 weeks. Only candidates with direct, relevant experience will be considered.
