Randstad, the world’s leading partner for talent, is expanding our Digital Specialty team in Toronto. We are looking for an ambitious, high-performing Technical Recruiter to own full-cycle recruiting for permanent IT and digital roles.
In this role, you won't be micro-managed or expected to just "take orders". You will operate as a true talent advisor and strategic partner to our clients and internal stakeholders. If you bring an agency hustle, a drive for uncapped earning potential, and the ability to operate with complete accountability, this desk is built for you.
What You Get to Do:
-
Full-Desk Ownership: Drive end-to-end recruitment for permanent IT and digital positions.
-
Manage High Requisition Volume: Successfully manage, prioritize, and execute 7 to 10 active requisitions concurrently with minimal supervision.
-
Act as a Strategic Advisor: Partner directly with hiring managers and account leaders to shape recruitment strategies, set market expectations, and advocate for candidates.
-
Targeted Sourcing: Proactively source, screen, and build pipelines for niche, hard-to-fill technical skill sets using creative sourcing strategies.
-
Offer & Closing Management: Consult candidates through the entire interview lifecycle, managing compensation expectations, offer negotiations, and closings.
-
Market Expertise: Stay ahead of IT industry trends, compensation benchmarks, and talent market conditions to guide client decision-making.
What You Need to Bring:
-
3 to 5 years of technical recruitment experience, ideally coming from a boutique or agency staffing environment.
-
Deep experience recruiting across various IT, tech, and digital skill sets.
-
A high-ownership mentality—someone who is independent, accountable, and thrives on speed and delivery.
-
Strong drive to maximize earnings through performance-based commission rather than relying solely on base pay.
-
Proven track record of managing high requisition loads in a fast-paced setting without requiring daily hand-holding.
-
Exceptional communication, negotiation, and candidate/client management skills.
What’s in it for You:
-
Competitive Compensation: Base salary + uncapped commission structure designed for top producers.
-
Autonomy & Trust: Complete freedom to run your desk with full support, but zero micro-management.
-
Flexible Work Model: Hybrid work environment with home office setup reimbursements.
-
Comprehensive Benefits: Wellness spending accounts, ergonomic reimbursement, and immediate health/dental coverage.
-
Time Off: 3 weeks (15 days) paid vacation in your first 12 months, plus additional care days.
-
Top Workplace Culture: Join an organization named one of Canada's Best Workplaces by Great Place to Work® for over 10 consecutive years.
