The Opportunity

Are you looking for a caring, collaborative, values-driven workplace with inspiring teammates and leaders? Do you have the ambition and desire to be the best and thrive at the most impactful global insurance provider in the world? Look no further than Zurich Canada.

If you have experience in executive recruitment, strategic sourcing, talent intelligence, and workforce planning and are looking for a new challenge, we would love to hear from you.

Zurich Canada is currently looking for a Bilingual Executive Recruiter, Talent Intelligence & Strategic Sourcing Partner to lead executive recruitment while serving as the enterprise sourcing and talent intelligence expert for the Talent Acquisition team.
Reporting to the AVP, Talent Acquisition, you will be a key member of Zurich Canada's Talent Acquisition Centre of Excellence.

Working closely with Executive Leaders, Hiring Managers, HR Business Partners, Talent Management, and Global Talent Acquisition, you will proactively identify exceptional talent, build executive and critical talent pipelines, deliver market intelligence, and provide workforce insights that support strategic hiring decisions. Through executive search, enterprise sourcing, and predictive talent intelligence, you will strengthen leadership capability, reduce agency reliance, elevate recruiter effectiveness, and help position Zurich Canada as an employer of choice.

This is a unique opportunity to build your knowledge and experience for the future in a supportive environment where your voice matters. This posting is for an existing vacancy.

Zurich Canada uses artificial intelligence-enabled tools to support certain aspects of the recruitment process, including the initial review and screening of applications. Artificial intelligence is not the sole basis for candidate shortlisting or selection. All hiring decisions are reviewed and made by qualified hiring professionals.

Zurich follows a hybrid work model requiring three days per week of in-person presence, which may include time in the office or market-facing engagements.

What you will do:

Executive Recruitment

Lead end-to-end recruitment for executive, senior leadership, and critical business roles across Zurich Canada.
Develop and execute strategic executive search strategies aligned with business priorities and future capability needs.
Partner with Executive Leaders, Hiring Managers, and HR Business Partners on confidential executive recruitment, succession planning, and leadership hiring.
Deliver a best-in-class candidate and hiring leader experience throughout the recruitment lifecycle.

Enterprise Strategic Sourcing & Talent Intelligence

Serve as the enterprise strategic sourcing partner supporting Talent Acquisition across all business functions.
Build proactive and evergreen talent pipelines for executive, niche, technical, and difficult-to-fill roles before business demand exists.
Conduct talent mapping, competitor research, labour market analysis, and market intelligence to inform hiring strategies.
Leverage LinkedIn Recruiter, AI-enabled sourcing technologies, networking, and market insights to identify and engage exceptional talent.
Produce talent intelligence reports highlighting market trends, competitor activity, emerging skills, talent availability, and sourcing opportunities.
Reduce agency reliance through proactive sourcing and strategic pipeline development.

Strategic Partnership

Act as a trusted advisor to Executive Leaders, Hiring Managers, and HR Business Partners.
Influence hiring strategies through workforce insights, labour market intelligence, and external talent data.
Partner with Talent Management and Global Talent Acquisition to strengthen leadership pipelines, succession readiness, and enterprise talent strategies.
Coach Talent Acquisition Partners on executive search methodologies, advanced sourcing techniques, and talent intelligence best practices.

Innovation & Continuous Improvement

Evaluate emerging sourcing technologies, AI capabilities, and talent intelligence tools to improve recruiter productivity and hiring outcomes.
Share sourcing innovations, market insights, and best practices across the Talent Acquisition team.
Contribute to the continued evolution of Zurich Canada's Talent Acquisition Centre of Excellence through innovation, continuous improvement, and knowledge sharing.

What you bring to the table:

Required:

Bachelor’s degree and 8+ or more years of experience in Recruiting

Demonstrated success recruiting executive, leadership, and specialized talent through proactive sourcing and market engagement.
Proven experience building proactive talent pipelines and conducting talent mapping, competitor research, labour market analysis, and talent intelligence.
Experience supporting strategic workforce planning, succession planning, and organizational growth initiatives.
Advanced sourcing expertise using LinkedIn Recruiter, Boolean search techniques, AI-enabled sourcing technologies, and modern talent intelligence platforms.
Demonstrated ability to leverage market intelligence, talent data, and external insights to influence hiring strategies and business decisions.
Experience assessing talent through skills, capabilities, and future potential, with an understanding of skills-based hiring and internal mobility.
Strong business acumen with the ability to align talent strategies with organizational priorities.
Exceptional communication, analytical, stakeholder management, and relationship-building skills.
Demonstrated ability to influence Executive Leaders, Hiring Managers, and HR Business Partners as a trusted advisor.

Preferred:

Executive search firm or in-house executive recruitment experience.
Insurance, financial services, or other highly regulated industry experience.
Experience with SuccessFactors, Phenom, LinkedIn Recruiter, LinkedIn Hiring Assistant, or similar ATS, CRM, and talent intelligence platforms.
Knowledge of workforce planning, succession planning, organizational capability, and talent analytics.

What Makes You Successful

You are:

A strategic talent advisor who builds trusted relationships through insight, influence, and collaboration.
Naturally curious and passionate about understanding talent markets, emerging skills, and competitor activity.
Data-driven and able to translate market intelligence into actionable business recommendations.
Skilled at balancing executive recruitment with enterprise-wide sourcing priorities.
Innovative, adaptable, and energized by continuous improvement, AI, and evolving talent practices.
Committed to delivering exceptional experiences for candidates, leaders, and internal partners while elevating Talent Acquisition capability across the organization.

At Zurich Canada, we are committed to pay equity. We determine compensation based on objective criteria such as skills, experience, and internal equity. The salary range for this position is $90,000 - $125,000. This range reflects the expected pay for the role across Canada and may vary depending on factors like office location, specific responsibilities, and individual qualifications. As required by local law, Zurich provides in good faith a reasonable compensation range, but starting salaries may exceed this range based on a candidate’s skills and experience.

Our Culture

At Zurich, we are proud of our culture. We are passionate about Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging (DIEB). We want you to bring your whole self to work, and we want our employees to be reflective of the communities in which we live and work. Our DIEB initiatives are creating an environment where everyone feels welcome.

We have a collaborative culture where diversity of thought is valued. We value your input and strive to give our employees the tools they need to make an impact.

We care about our employees’ well-being and offer a comprehensive health/benefits plan with varying levels of coverage to suit your specific needs and a competitive total compensation package.

We understand how important it is to rest, recharge and do the things you love. At Zurich, all employees receive a minimum of four weeks of vacation per year to do just that.

We also understand that employees require time off for personal reasons. Maybe you have an appointment during a workday, a cultural or religious holiday you would like to observe, or you need time off to focus on your mental health. Zurich employees receive four personal days per year to be used at their discretion.

We are committed to continuous improvement, and offer access to a comprehensive range of training and development opportunities.

We care about our communities. Our communities are where our customers, people, and shareholders live and work. While we can be proud of the contribution to society Zurich makes through our core business of insurance, we must also give back to our communities through our talent, time and resources.

We have won numerous awards for our workplace culture. We are proud to be one of Greater Toronto’s Top Employers and to have received Insurance Business Canada’s 5-Star Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Award.

Make a difference. Be challenged. Be inspired. Be supported. Love what you do. Work for us.
