Search Expertise.
Built on Experience.
Empire Resource Group is led by Craig MacGregor, bringing more than 25 years of recruitment experience across Canada and the U.S. While technology and highly specialized search remain at the core of what we do, our work spans executive and senior leadership, professional, permanent and contract hiring across a wide range of industries and functions. Whether the need is a key executive, a hard-to-find technical specialist or the next great addition to your team, every search is driven by the same hands-on approach, market knowledge and relationships built over decades in the business.
Great hires don’t always start with an application.
Many of the strongest candidates are already succeeding where they are and may not be actively looking for their next move. That is where experience, market knowledge and relationships matter. We identify the people who genuinely fit the role, approach them directly and create meaningful conversations around opportunities worth considering.
At ERG, we know how to reach talent that may never appear through a traditional job posting, and how to turn the right conversation into the right hire.
We find them differently.
The search is direct. ERG maps the market and approaches the right people one at a time, drawing on relationships built over a career and on modern search technology.
Then experience takes over. Every shortlisted candidate is assessed personally and presented with the context a resume leaves out. See how a search runs.
