PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Beyond.com, Inc., the world’s largest network of niche career communities, announced today it has expanded its national presence with the opening of a new sales office in Indianapolis. Led by Mark Anderson, Vice President of Employer Sales, Indianapolis positions the Beyond.com sales team in a centrally located city, rich with technology and recruitment talent to expand its national reach to a growing customer base.
The company also announced the appointment of Tim Heston to Director of Enterprise Sales, serving as a key member of the Beyond.com sales team. With more than 25 years of sales and business development experience, Heston previously worked at eQuest and The Bernard Hodes Group. He joins a seasoned sales team of well-known industry veterans, including: Josh Akers, previously with Monster.com (NYSE: MWW), RecruitingBlogs.com and Doostang.com; Jason Harvoth, also formerly of Monster.com; and Angie Clowers, previously with TruStar Solutions and Appendant Marketing Group.
The Beyond.com sales team has experienced rapid expansion since the start of 2011 with 250 percent growth as 18 new employees joined the Indianapolis office. Overall, Beyond.com has grown by 41 percent company-wide this year.
This strong company momentum is driven by significant accomplishments over the past year, including:
- The acquisition of Orbius, a powerful social website that strengthens Beyond.com’s commitment to its community focus, providing new ways for its members to connect and engage throughout their careers.
- An agreement with eQuest to provide mutual customers unlimited job posting access and give eQuest OFCCP Compliance users exclusive rights to post jobs to The Beyond Diversity Network.
- Beyond.com was selected by The Network as its exclusive provider of recruitment services in the U.S. market for its multinational clients, replacing Yahoo! HotJobs, creating an international explosion of Beyond.com awareness.
“We are very excited about the recent launch of our Indianapolis-based sales office,” said Rich Milgram, CEO, Beyond.com. “Indianapolis is a significant hub for opportunity with an extremely talent-rich market in the recruitment space, which we are confident will be able to support our continued, explosive growth and contribute to the overall success of Beyond.com.
