The Headhunters

The Headhunters, operated by The Headhunters Recruitment LP, is a Canadian recruitment firm founded in 2009. It conducts searches across North America, with a primary focus on Canada. Its founders had previously worked in recruitment at other firms. The team is fully remote and serves clients from coast-to-coast.

The firm recruits in accounting and finance, operations, human resources, sales and business development, marketing and communications, executive and senior management, administration and executive assistance, private equity, legal, insurance, customer service, information technology, engineering, construction, and supply chain and logistics. Each recruitment consultant focuses on a core specialty area.

Its main service is contingency searches for permanent placements. Fees are a percentage of starting salary, and candidates are never charged. It also offers temporary and contract placements, including temp-to-perm, and retained searches. Its process includes a hiring assessment called the Workstyle & Performance Profile, with TalentClick as its assessment partner. The Headhunters is part of the Humanis Advisory Group, which offers recruitment, executive search, leadership coaching and HR consulting.
