Professional search is the recruitment of experienced professionals and executives for permanent, contract business-critical roles. Robertson's recruiters combine deep market knowledge with objective insight into skills and compensation, working closely with clients to define candidate requirements and identify the right person for each key role.
Robertson recruits professionals and executives for critical roles, with particular depth in financial services, including banking, insurance, wealth and asset management, as well Technology, Mining, Manufacturing, Energy and the Public Sector. This includes leadership, finance and accounting, risk, compliance, technology, and specialized functional roles where market knowledge and candidate quality matter most.
Professional search fills permanent, senior, or hard-to-fill roles, while temporary and contingent staffing cover short-term or high-volume needs. Search is consultative and quality-led — focused on the right long-term hire — whereas contingent and temporary solutions prioritize speed and scale for interim or project-based demand.
Robertson specializes in complex, regulated sectors — primarily banking, insurance and financial services — and also serves technology, mining, manufacturing and public-sector organizations. With over 25,000 candidates placed at more than 80 financial institutions across North America, Robertson understands emerging roles and the compliance requirements of these complex, regulated industries.
Robertson pairs experienced sector recruiters with AI-powered pre-screening and evaluation tools to assess candidates against each role's specific skill requirements, and the cultural fit with the client organization. The results speak for themselves: fewer than 2% of placed candidates leave within two years, and over 95% of Robertson's business comes from repeat clients.
Timelines vary by sector, role complexity and demand, but Robertson typically reduces time-to-hire by 30–80% compared with clients' previous processes. A recruiter will give you a realistic timeline for your specific mandate during the initial consultation.
