Company Description
Canadian Recruitment Specialists is a Calgary-based talent acquisition firm that partners closely with business leaders to identify both technical and non-technical skills and deliver the right hire every time. Led by founder and CEO Benjamin (Ben) Rowlandson, who brings 27 years of experience placing professionals across Canada, the agency blends targeted headhunting with disciplined process to surface top candidates quickly and discreetly. The firm emphasizes quality over volume—each CRS recruiter manages only a few searches at a time, ensuring timely, focused attention for clients and candidates. CRS offers a straightforward permanent placement model with a fixed 14% fee and a three-month guarantee, supported by a $1,000 refundable retainer per search to cover direct campaign costs. Their team is known for executing efficient market sweeps, capable of covering a city or an entire province within three weeks to identify the best available talent for any position or role. Assignments span white-collar, blue-collar, and executive levels, with recent briefs ranging from Site Supervisor roles in residential construction to Vacuum Truck Operators supporting wastewater and septic services in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, and Crossfield. Clients choose whether searches are conducted discreetly or made visible and loud to maximize reach. Beyond hiring, CRS supports job seekers with resume design, interview coaching, and guidance through online application protocols, helping candidates present their achievements effectively and navigate modern hiring processes. Rooted in Calgary and serving businesses nationwide, CRS operates as a pragmatic, relationship-driven recruiting partner for industries such as residential construction, trucking and field operations, environmental and utilities-adjacent services, and broader operational and professional roles. By combining targeted headhunting, transparent pricing, and hands-on market coverage, Canadian Recruitment Specialists consistently aligns organizational needs with proven talent, accelerating successful hires that stick.
