GT Group, headquartered in Montreal Canada, provides a varied range of products and services related to Containers, Transport, Logistics and Warehousing for the international shipping community. Serving both the domestic and international sectors for over 45 years, we bring a solid and innovative approach to client satisfaction. GT Group is seeking a Recruiter to join our team on a one-year contract, dedicated to sourcing, screening and hiring Class 1 drivers who transport containers to support our container transport, logistics and warehousing operations.

Reporting to the Transport Operations Supervisor, this role owns the full recruitment cycle for driver positions – from sourcing and screening through offer and onboarding hand-off – and partners closely with operations leadership to keep pace with GT Group's driver staffing needs. Manage full-cycle recruitment for Class 1 driver positions supporting container transport operations, and other transport-operations roles as needed. Source candidates through job boards, driver-specific platforms, employee referrals, driving schools, trucking associations, social media and other channels.

Screen resumes and applications, and verify Class 1 licence validity, driving record (abstract) and relevant certifications. Conduct initial phone/video screening interviews to assess qualifications, experience and fit before advancing candidates. Coordinate and schedule interviews with the Transport Operations Supervisor and other stakeholders.

Maintain an accurate, up-to-date candidate pipeline and applicant tracking records. Conduct reference checks and coordinate pre-employment requirements (driving abstract, medical certification,



and other checks as required by GT Group and applicable regulations). Prepare and extend offers in collaboration with the Transport Operations Supervisor and HR.

Build and maintain relationships with driving schools, trucking associations and industry contacts to develop a steady pipeline of qualified Class 1 drivers. Track and report recruiting metrics (time-to-fill, source effectiveness, offer-acceptance rate) to the Transport Operations Supervisor. Represent GT Group at job fairs, driver-recruitment events and community outreach activities as needed.

Perform other related recruiting and administrative duties as assigned. Proven experience recruiting Class 1 drivers or similar commercial drivers – required.

Experience recruiting drivers specifically for container transport – an asset.

Experience in full-cycle recruitment, ideally within the transport, logistics or supply chain industry. Familiarity with Quebec Class 1 licensing requirements, driving abstracts and transport-industry compliance standards – an asset. Bilingual (French/English), professional level, written and spoken – required.

Strong sourcing skills across job boards, social media and driver-specific recruiting channels. Ability to manage a high-volume pipeline and multiple requisitions simultaneously in a fast-paced environment. Familiarity with applicant tracking systems (ATS) and MS Office Suite.

Diploma or certificate in Human Resources, or equivalent combination of education and experience. A dynamic, quick-paced environment within a growing container transport, logistics and warehousing company. The opportunity to build a dedicated driver-recruitment function and make a direct, visible impact on operations.
