Executive Search & Permanent Placement Company
Founded more than 12 years ago, this executive search firm has established itself as a trusted recruitment partner across Canada’s construction, manufacturing, property management, distribution, accounting, and skilled trades sectors. The company focuses exclusively on direct-hire and retained search, setting it apart from traditional contract or temp staffing firms. With a strong reputation, proven processes, and long-tenured recruiters operating under independent contractor agreements, the platform delivers premium placements and repeatable client satisfaction.
Services
The firm provides mid- to executive-level permanent placement services. Assignments often involve leadership and technical roles with base compensation exceeding $100,000. Searches are increasingly conducted on an exclusive or retained basis, reflecting the company’s positioning in the high-value segment of the market. Sub-focus areas include finance, sales and marketing, and HR.
Clients
Clients include many of Canada’s top builders, developers, general contractors, and facilities operators. The firm maintains long-standing relationships that generate recurring assignments in critical roles such as project managers, site superintendents, estimators, and finance leaders. Access to passive candidates in these high-demand fields is a significant competitive advantage.
Operations
The business operates under a lean, scalable model. Recruiters and account executives, many with 10+ years of tenure, work under exclusive independent contractor agreements, reducing fixed costs while ensuring continuity and quality. Established workflows, candidate development playbooks, and data assets reinforce consistency and scalability.
Growth Opportunities
The firm sees significant opportunities for expansion by strengthening its presence in new and emerging markets, diversifying its service offerings to deepen relationships with existing clients, and addressing widespread workforce challenges that drive sustained demand for specialized talent. It is also well-positioned to pursue complex, mission-critical projects that require highly skilled expertise. Additionally, the increasing need for executive and professional roles that are less susceptible to automation further reinforces long-term growth potential.
Reason for Sale
Ownership seeks to align with a strategic or financial buyer who can leverage the firm’s platform for expansion in Canada and the U.S. The business presents a premium acquisition opportunity for firms looking to enhance direct-hire and executive search capabilities.
Transition Support
The founding partners are committed to ensuring continuity for clients, candidates, and teams. They are open to remaining post-transaction in reduced or non-ownership roles, with a focus on client development and senior-level placements. Their involvement will ensure a seamless handover and sustained client relationships.
