Joshua Mallen

Joshua Mallen is the Co-Founder & Strategic Advisor of HyperHired®. HyperHired wasn’t built from a business plan — it was built from a problem. Joshua and his partners needed to build their own sales teams, and the recruiters, agencies, and bad actors they trusted to do it led them nowhere and nearly put them out of business. So they built the firm they wished had existed.

A serial entrepreneur, Joshua has built dozens of companies from the ground up across insurance, lead generation, marketing, BPO operations, business funding, and e-commerce. He has led sales floors, scaled sales and marketing systems to significant scale, and developed and mentored countless amounts of talent. It’s the throughline behind everything he builds: he doesn’t theorize about what a high-performing sales team looks like — he has spent years building and running them himself.

That operator’s lens is what sets HyperHired® apart from a traditional agency. The firm is led by people who own and operate a portfolio of their own sales companies, so it recruits to the same standard those businesses hold their top closers to — not a résumé checklist. Because Joshua has personally sold, hired, and led in the exact roles HyperHired fills, every part of the process reflects how hiring works in practice: compensation structured to attract real talent, roles designed to fit the floor, screening built around the intangibles a résumé can’t reveal, and a placement-contingent model that ties the firm’s fee to hires actually delivered.

The results speak in numbers: more than 20,000 sales representatives placed at over 1,500 companies, spanning 50+ industries — with the firm growing every year since day one.

At the core of Joshua’s approach is a conviction tested across every company he’s built: hunger can’t be faked, and the drive to win can’t be taught. HyperHired exists to find the people who already have it.
