THE RIGHT PEOPLE CHANGE EVERYTHING.

Founder-led recruitment for businesses that care who they hire, not just how quickly they hire.

Start a Search

Fewer clients. Deeper searches. Better hiring decisions.

We intentionally work with a select number of clients so every search gets our full attention. When you partner with Headhunters Canada, you work directly with Gregg or Veronica from the first conversation through to placement. No junior handoffs. No volume game.

Work Directly With the Founders

The people who understand your mandate are the people running your search.

Search Beyond the Job Boards

We identify and approach strong candidates whether they are actively looking or not.

A Shortlist, Not a Stack

We focus on presenting the right people, not the most people.


If the hire matters to your business, we want to understand it.


Have an important hire on your hands?

Tell us what you're trying to solve. Whether you're ready to begin a search or simply want a perspective on the market, you'll speak directly with one of us.


How We Help

Direct Placement

Full-cycle recruitment for permanent hires across functions and seniority levels.

We take the time to understand the role, search beyond the obvious candidates, assess fit and deliver a carefully selected shortlist — not a stack of resumes.

Strategic Talent Search

For critical, confidential, complex or hard-to-fill roles where a standard recruitment process isn't enough.

We take a deeper, research-led approach to the market, proactively identifying and engaging talent that may never respond to a job posting. The seniority of the role matters less than the importance of getting the hire right.

Fractional Talent Partnership

Senior recruitment expertise embedded into your business when you need more than a single search, but don't need a full-time internal talent function.

We work alongside your leadership team to provide hiring strategy, market insight and hands-on recruitment support on a flexible or project basis


If the hire matters to your business, we want to understand it.

How We Work

Understand

We go beyond the job description to understand the business, team, challenges and what success actually looks like.

Search

We map the market, engage active and passive candidates and carefully assess fit before making an introduction.

Hire

We present a focused shortlist and stay involved through interviews, references, negotiation, offer and onboarding.


The people you meet are the people doing the work.

Our philosophy is simple: reconnect talent with humanity. In a hiring world increasingly driven by systems, automation and AI, we believe the best decisions still come from real conversations, genuine understanding and staying close to the work.
