Aplin is looking for a driven, results-oriented Recruiter to join our Vancouver team. This is an opportunity for a proven salesperson to build a career in recruitment, leveraging your prospecting, relationship-building, negotiation and closing skills to build a successful recruitment desk.

Our recruiters specialize across a range of industries, including Accounting & Finance, Insurance, Legal, Construction, Property and more. Depending on your experience, interests and our business needs, you’ll have the opportunity to join one of our specialized recruitment divisions.

Who We Are:
Aplin is a proud Canadian organization built on family values, a client-first mindset, and a strong commitment to developing its people. As an award-winning staffing and recruiting agency, we stand apart for quality results, we have proudly fulfilled talent demands and advanced careers for over 50 years.

We believe in recognizing and promoting talent from within, and our culture is centered on support, teamwork, and fostering meaningful connections, both within the company and with the communities we serve.

What You'll Do:
As a Recruiter on our Vancouver team, you’ll build strong relationships with top talent and connect them to great opportunities with our clients.

• Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified candidates within your specialized vertical.
• Proactively source candidates through networking, referrals, social media, cold outreach, and direct recruiting.
• Conduct in-depth interviews to assess candidates’ experience, skills, career goals, and overall fit for client opportunities.
• Coordinate interviews, manage feedback, and guide candidates through the hiring process.
• Collaborate closely with Account Managers to understand client needs and deliver exceptional talent on searches.
• Negotiate offers, facilitate placements, and help close successful hires across contract and permanent positions.

• Manage placed contractors throughout their assignments to ensure a positive experience for both clients and candidates.

What We’re Looking For:
We’re looking for a driven sales professional who is excited to build a successful career in recruitment. Previous recruitment experience is an asset, but a strong sales background and proven track record of success are equally valuable.

• 1–5 years of experience in B2B sales, business development, agency recruitment, account management or a related sales environment.
• Proven track record of exceeding sales targets, quotas or KPIs.
• Experience or knowledge in a professional industry such as Accounting & Finance, Insurance, Legal, Construction, Property, or another relevant sector is an asset.
• Exceptional communication, relationship-building, and negotiation skills.
• Strong work ethic with a high sense of urgency and accountability.
• Competitive and results-driven, with the motivation to build a successful desk and grow your earning potential.
• Previous recruitment or staffing experience is an asset but not required.

What You’ll Gain:

• Competitive base salary, plus uncapped commission.
• On-target earnings (OTE) of approximately $80,000 in your first year, with significantly higher earning potential as you build your desk.
• Excellent perks and comprehensive benefits package.
• A fun, collaborative, and supportive team environment where people celebrate each other’s successes and enjoy working together.
• Ongoing training, coaching, and mentorship from experienced recruitment professionals.
