About the role The position is at a tech company. We’re looking for a Talent Acquisition Specialist to join our People team and support hiring growth across the organization.

This is a hands-on, full-cycle recruiting role for someone who can independently manage searches from intake through accepted offer, build robust partnerships with hiring managers, and deliver an exceptional candidate experience.

You’ll oversee the day-to-day execution of hiring across functions including Go-to-Market, Customer Success, Operations, Product, and Engineering. You’ll partner with our People & Talent Partner on broader talent strategy, recruiting analytics, process enhancement, workforce planning, and select senior or complex searches.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys both the relationship-building and operational aspects of recruiting: understanding what drives success in a role, identifying strong candidates, keeping searches progressing, and using data and market insights to improve hiring results.

Responsibilities

- Independently manage a portfolio of full-cycle searches from initial kickoff through accepted offer.
- Partner with hiring managers to establish role requirements, success profiles, competencies, and interview criteria.
- Develop qualified candidate pipelines through proactive sourcing, referrals, inbound applicants, networking, and innovative sourcing strategies.
- Conduct recruiter screens and evaluate candidates against clearly established role requirements.
- Keep hiring processes on track by proactively coordinating candidates, interviewers, feedback, and next steps.
- Act as the primary day-to-day recruiting partner for hiring managers, sharing pipeline updates, market insights, and recommendations when search strategies need to evolve.
- Identify potential hiring risks and process bottlenecks early and recommend effective solutions.




- Coordinate offers and support candidate closing in partnership with the People team.
- Develop proactive talent pipelines for recurring and challenging-to-fill positions.
- Conduct talent mapping and provide insights into candidate availability, compensation expectations, and market hiring trends.
- Maintain accurate candidate and requisition information in our ATS while supporting consistent interview and scorecard practices.
- Partner with the People team to ensure a seamless transition from accepted offer through onboarding.
- Identify opportunities to improve recruiting workflows, candidate experience, sourcing strategies, systems, and automation.
- Partner with our People & Talent Partner to track recruiting metrics including pipeline health, conversion rates, source effectiveness, time in stage, and time-to-fill.

Qualifications

- 3–5 years of full-cycle recruiting experience, preferably within a technology, SaaS, or high-growth environment.
- Experience independently managing multiple searches across a variety of functions.
- Strong proactive sourcing capabilities with experience engaging passive candidates.
- Confidence conducting recruiter screens and evaluating candidates beyond their resume qualifications.
- Strong hiring manager partnership skills, including the ability to make recommendations, manage expectations, and constructively challenge assumptions.
- Excellent candidate communication skills and a strong focus on candidate experience.
- Highly organized with the ability to maintain momentum while balancing competing priorities.
- Comfort working in an environment where priorities may change, and processes are not always fully defined.
- Experience with recruiting metrics and using pipeline data to identify risks, challenges, or opportunities.
- Experience using an ATS such as Greenhouse or a comparable platform.
- Curiosity about recruiting technology, automation, and AI-powered recruiting tools.
- Experience recruiting across GTM, Customer Success, Product, Engineering, Finance, or Operations is an asset.

Pay: CA$75k to CA$90k annually.
