Job description

SiteTalent is a specialized talent partner for the industrial sector. We recruit, retain, develop and grow exceptional talent in the construction, manufacturing, and resource sectors.

We have an opening for a Talent Specialist to join our Abbotsford team. This role drives high-volume sourcing, outreach, and early-stage candidate engagement across active client searches, from first contact through screening and interview coordination, and delivers well-prepared candidate submissions that keep every search moving forward.

So what kind of person fits the role? Someone who’s energized by a full day of conversations and just as disciplined about the follow-through behind them. A person who can work quickly and at volume but never treats a candidate like a number, giving everyone a professional, positive experience regardless of outcome. Someone who’s motivated by clear targets and sees every search as a chance to sharpen their instincts for finding the right fit.

Key Responsibilities

Candidate Sourcing and Outreach

• Conduct proactive, high-volume outreach across LinkedIn, job boards, and other sourcing channels to maintain an active, qualified pipeline
• Identify and engage candidates for active and anticipated searches through direct messaging, InMail, email, and referral follow-up
• Track outreach activity and candidate status in our applicant tracking system to keep pipelines accurate and visible
• Build lasting relationships with candidates across the construction, manufacturing, and resource sectors

Screening and Interview Coordination

• Conduct candidate screening interviews at high weekly volume to assess fit against role requirements
• Prepare candidates for next-stage interviews with a clear briefing on role details, client culture, and process expectations
• Coordinate interview logistics between candidates and clients, including scheduling, reminders, and follow-up
• Document interview notes and candidate assessments clearly and consistently

Candidate Submissions

• Prepare and submit polished candidate profiles to clients on a consistent weekly cadence
• Ensure every submission aligns with the confirmed role brief and meets the client’s quality expectations
• Incorporate client and leadership feedback to continually improve submission quality

Business Development Support

• Conduct proactive outreach to potential client contacts to support the business development pipeline
• Identify new client leads and hiring signals from market activity and candidate conversations
• Assist with the preparation of client-facing materials alongside the sales team

Candidate and Client Experience

• Deliver a responsive, professional, and positive experience for every candidate, regardless of placement outcome
• Support the collection of client feedback following submissions and placements
• Invite satisfied candidates and clients to share reviews of their experience

Qualifications

• 1 to 3 years of experience in recruitment, staffing, talent acquisition, or a similar high-volume, people-facing role such as inside sales
• Hands-on experience sourcing candidates through LinkedIn and job boards
• Confidence conducting phone and video screens and assessing candidates against a role brief
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a style that is both professional and personable
• Excellent organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple searches and a full calendar without losing track of details
• Experience working in an applicant tracking system or CRM; experience with Loxo is an asset
• Familiarity with construction, manufacturing, or resource sector roles is an asset
• Post-secondary education in human resources, business, or a related field is an asset

SiteTalent "Must Haves"

• You care about getting it right: precision and accuracy drive you
• Able and willing to commute to our Abbotsford office
• You’re a self-starter who takes ownership of your work and follows through
• You have a sense of humor and love to have fun, but take your responsibilities seriously
• You thrive in a busy, high-activity role with clear weekly targets for outreach, interviews, and submissions

Benefits of Working for SiteTalent

• Compensation: $55,000 - $65,000 base + commission (based on experience)
