Strategic recruitment partner, I support organizations across Quebec in securing critical talent in logistics, operations, and specialized roles, where every hiring decision has a direct impact on performance, operational continuity, and team engagement.

With more than 10 years of experience, my background is deeply rooted in operations. I progressed from hands-on field roles to management positions within complex and demanding environments — retail, liquidation, branch turnaround, team leadership, and growth contexts. This experience now allows me to quickly grasp the strategic and operational challenges facing leaders, far beyond job descriptions.

My approach is rigorous, human, and results-driven. It is built on transparency, a nuanced understanding of real needs, respect for the candidate as a career partner, and a constant focus on sustainable effectiveness for the organization.

I mainly work on sensitive, high-value strategic mandates, where talent is scarce, timelines are tight, and the stakes are high. My role is to reduce time-to-hire, secure highly qualified profiles, and create lasting alignment between the talent, the leadership team, and the organization.

For me, recruitment is not a transactional service.

It is a strategic partnership, built on trust, commitment, and a long-term vision.
