Job summary

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Recruitment Business Partner based in Canada . This is an entrepreneurial recruitment opportunity for an experienced professional who wants to help build and grow a boutique contingency recruitment business. You will combine client development, candidate sourcing, relationship building, and modern recruitment technology to generate placements and revenue. The role offers significant autonomy, with the freedom to build your own client relationships while leveraging an established business, candidate database, and recruitment infrastructure. You will work primarily with startup founders, engineering leaders, and hiring managers who need strong technical talent. A strong commercial mindset is essential, as you will help identify which clients, candidates, and opportunities offer the greatest potential. You will use AI, automation, sourcing platforms, ATS and CRM tools to make recruitment more efficient and scalable. This is a fully remote partnership designed for someone comfortable with variable income, shared ownership, and building something rather than following a traditional career path. Accountabilities Develop new client relationships by leveraging your own network of founders, engineering leaders, hiring managers, and other technology decision-makers. Open new business opportunities and collaborate on converting relationships into active recruitment mandates. Source, engage, and qualify candidates using the existing ATS and candidate database as well as modern sourcing and outreach tools. Build and maintain strong relationships with startup founders, particularly within seed to Series A companies, and understand their technical hiring requirements. Run thoughtful and personalized outreach campaigns that generate meaningful conversations rather than generic recruiter messaging. Use AI, automation, LinkedIn, Apollo, CRM, ATS, and other available technologies to streamline sourcing, outreach, and business development activities. Identify opportunities to cross-sell candidates across multiple roles and maximize the value of the existing candidate network. Help prioritize prospective clients, candidate opportunities, market angles, and other initiatives based on commercial potential. Contribute to strategic decisions about how the recruitment business should develop and where future growth opportunities exist. Manage your own activity and priorities independently while maintaining regular communication with the business partner. Operate collaboratively across the full recruitment lifecycle, from winning clients and sourcing candidates through to successful placements. Requirements You have a strong network within technology, startup, or engineering communities, with relationships that can translate into genuine client and candidate opportunities. You have experience in recruitment, sales, founder-led growth, talent acquisition, or another environment where relationship building and commercial instincts are critical. You are highly comfortable engaging with founders, engineering leaders, and hiring managers and can establish credibility around technical hiring needs. You are technologically confident and naturally comfortable using ATS platforms, CRMs, automation tools, AI applications, LLM prompting, LinkedIn, and other modern recruitment or sales technologies. You have a strong entrepreneurial mindset and are motivated by building relationships, creating opportunities, and directly contributing to revenue. You have excellent judgment and can distinguish high-value opportunities from activities that create little commercial impact. You are comfortable working independently without traditional management structures, formal reporting requirements, or predefined career paths. You are adaptable and comfortable with the variable income and uncertainty inherent in contingency recruitment. You are able to operate effectively within European time zones and align with clients across the UK, Switzerland, Poland, Germany, and France. You bring strong communication skills, commercial awareness, initiative, and a direct, human approach to recruitment. Benefits Fully remote working arrangement. Revenue-share compensation directly tied to successful placements and business generation. A negotiable revenue split designed around the contribution of each partner. Access to an established recruitment business with paying clients and an existing candidate pipeline. Access to a fully configured ATS, email infrastructure, outbound tools, CRM capabilities, and recruitment methodology. Full autonomy over how you develop relationships, source candidates, and build your part of the business. Opportunity to work directly with startup founders and technical hiring leaders across European markets. Opportunity to shape business strategy, client priorities, candidate development, and future growth. A genuine partnership model with shared responsibility and shared upside rather than a traditional employee structure. Exposure to modern AI, automation, sourcing, and recruitment technologies in a highly entrepreneurial environment.
