- Provide weekly reports and status updates to leadership and the larger P&C team on hiring progress and proactively address roadblocks
- Conduct full-cycle recruitment:
- Own the requisitions for senior, technical, and niche requisitions located in both Canada (provincial focus on Ontario) and USA (state focus in Texas) by acting as the main contact for candidates, scheduling interviews and coordinating all details of the interview and selection process
- Partner with hiring leaders and TA Specialists to:

- I'm proud of how I make candidates feel unique and understand how to assess their character and competence fit. I am also keen to mentor hiring leaders and team members on the secrets behind my superstar interviewing skills.
- I love leveraging technology to drive effective and efficient work habits. I've worked with a variety of applicant tracking systems. I get bonus points if I've used Workable, but if I haven't, then I'm confident that I'd pick up the system quickly.
- I get excited about being extremely organized and ensuring candidates and hiring leaders feel confident in my ability to keep the process moving efficiently.
- I'm willing to occasionally travel and have a valid passport and no travel restrictions that limit my ability to cross the border between Canada and the USA for team building or recruitment events.
