Linkus Group

Linkus Group is a recruitment agency specialising in mission-critical hires for startups and small-to-medium businesses in Canada and the United States. Founded by Adam Gellert, a talent strategist, the company has spent over 10,000 hours building core teams for founder-led companies and has worked with more than 500 companies, completing over 1,000 successful hires with a 95% retention rate. The agency functions as a dedicated in-house recruitment team without the overhead, combining proven tools, technology, and processes to deliver results that exceed both internal and traditional agency approaches.

Linkus Group offers executive search, local talent acquisition, passive candidate recruiting, and talent advisory services. The company differentiates itself through exclusive partnerships (no competitor work), high-touch service (no committee-based decisions), and focus on companies' specific needs rather than filling positions quickly. For founder-led companies, the agency saves 8-10 hours per week by focusing the founder's time on meeting only top performers who genuinely fit culture and growth stage. The recruitment process covers strategy, sourcing, vetting, and closing, with the agency taking a complete view of the business, culture, and growth stage to find truly aligned candidates.

The company has built relationships with top companies from their early days, providing unique insight into what separates winners from everyone else. They work exclusively with partners they are fully invested in, ensuring focused, strategic recruitment support rather than transactional placements. Their commitment to cultural fit, growth-stage alignment, and long-term success makes them a strategic partner for ambitious founder-led businesses.
