Job description

Elevate Careers, Strengthen Teams, and Shape Organizational Success

CPA Ontario is not like other organizations

We operate at a rare intersection, both regulator and membership body, responsible for upholding the integrity of the CPA designation while supporting more than 105,000 members and 19,000 students across the province. Our work sits between business and the public interest, between the evolving demands of industry and the standards that make trust possible.

Careers built here tend to look different because the work itself is different. You are not simply contributing to an organization. You are helping shape a profession that touches nearly every sector of the economy at a moment when expectations, technology, and the nature of work are all being rewritten.

About This Opportunity:

The Recruitment team is an integral part of CPA Ontario. We work across the organization, with every Business Unit to offer advisory and subject matter expertise on everything from job descriptions to hiring strategy to offer negotiations, before handing off to HR Operations for onboarding. Our focus is on providing a smooth and easy process for hiring managers and exceptional experience for our candidates.

As CPA Ontario’s Senior Recruiter, reporting to the Manager, Recruitment, you'll partner with leaders across the organization to deliver full-cycle recruitment and an exceptional hiring experience for hiring managers and candidates.

You’ll then manage sourcing, screening, interviewing, offer, pre-employment verifications if needed, all the way to onboarding hand off.
• Talent Sourcing & Pipeline Development. Sourcing is key here as the majority of roles we hire are niche or require a little something beyond the usual. You’ll leverage all possible sourcing channels and build relationships with candidates for future opportunities.
• As a strategic partner to our hiring managers, you’ll work consultatively to build successful talent acquisition strategies.
• You’ll work with the Recruitment, HR and Marketing & Brand teams to solidify and elevate our employee value proposition. In addition, you may be asked to represent CPA Ontario at networking events, conferences, and career fairs if needed.
• You’re a master at analytics and reporting. You regularly track and analyze your own metrics and recognize the importance of using data and reports to help the business understand future opportunities.
• Additional project work to help elevate the team.

To Be Successful You Need:

• 5+ years of full cycle corporate, in-house recruitment experience. A combination of 2+ yrs corporate, in-house and agency experience would be considered
• To be comfortable sourcing hard to find candidates and you’re up to date on the tools required to do that
• Previous experience using an Applicant Tracking System
• Experience driving recruitment actions to support our culture of equity, diversity and inclusion
• Experience developing, maintaining and using recruitment reports and metrics as required
• Exceptional communication (verbal and written) and presentation skills are essential as are interpersonal, relationship-building, and influencing skills
• Previous stakeholder management experience, able to build relationships quickly, and able to influence and provide consultative services at all levels of the organization
• Exceptional organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects
• Strong attention to details and the ability to show judgement
• A self-starter who is results oriented
• Comfortable working with and through ambiguity, you’re able to understand where to be flexible within set guidelines
