The Opportunity

Transdev Canada is looking to add a Senior Recruiter, Executive &

- Strategic Talent to our national Talent &
- Culture team. This newly created position calls for a recruiter who knows how to hunt — someone who can take a complex mandate, understand the business need, map the market, identify where the right talent sits, engage people who may not be actively looking, and build enough interest for them to consider Transdev.

The role will recruit across functions, geographies and levels, including senior and executive leadership positions and specialized, business-critical roles, while proactively building pipelines for future talent needs.

Success in this role will come from curiosity, persistence, commercial instinct and a genuine ability to find and engage exceptional people. You enjoy the hunt and have the tenacity to keep looking when the obvious avenues don’t produce the right talent. Just as importantly, you know that great recruiting is about people: you build trust with candidates, strong partnerships with the business, and authentic relationships across your network.
