Sourcer, Talent Acquisition (1-year contract)

Your career is an investment that grows over time!

Wealthsimple is on a mission to help everyone achieve financial freedom by reimagining what it means to manage your money. Using smart technology, we take financial services that are often confusing, opaque and expensive and make them transparent and low-cost for everyone. We’re the largest fintech company in Canada, with over 4 million users who trust us with more than $50 billion in assets.

Our teams ship often and make an impact with groundbreaking ideas. We're looking for talented people who keep it simple and value collaboration and humility as we continue to create inclusive and high-performing teams where people can be inspired to do their best work.

You’re the detective, connector, and pipeline builder all rolled into one. Working closely with our R&D squads—data, engineering, product, design—you’ll hunt down fintech talent who will help us reinvent financial services in Canada.

You’ll keep us plugged in to the right people, whether we’re hiring now or just warming up for the future. Your superpower? Turning research, market savvy, and data-driven insights into a nonstop stream of great candidates and hiring wins.

At Wealthsimple, we move fast with naive ambition — always aiming higher and shipping it without waiting for perfection. You take ownership of your work, acting as a true maker-owner in the hiring process. You’re deeply customer-obsessed, always thinking about how the talent you find will shape a simpler, more human financial experience for Canadians. You bring your full self to work - being human matters here — and you know that keeping things simple is the best way to build trust and move quickly.

• Partner closely with recruiters on active searches and build smart, research-driven strategies that find top candidates — always putting candidates, recruiters, and hiring teams first.
• Fearlessly hunt down diverse, high-quality talent for high-priority or hard-to-fill roles — no lead too cold, no message too bold.
• Build and maintain evergreen talent pools for engineering and design that line up with where we’re headed long-term.

• Create scalable, repeatable sourcing processes that keep our pipelines growing well beyond today’s openings.
• Use AI and modern sourcing tools to work smarter, uncover hidden talent, and surface the right people faster.
• Research hiring trends in fintech’s hottest spaces — crypto, trading, lending, and beyond — so we’re always ahead of the curve.
• Develop a deep understanding of the North American tech talent landscape — who’s out there, where they are, and how to reach them.
• Help build authentic communities where passive talent naturally wants to engage with Wealthsimple — long before they apply.
• Reimagine how we connect with candidates — making every first touch thoughtful, human, and memorable.
• Focus on sourcing and referrals as our secret weapons — because the best hires come from the right network and real relationships.

• Proven track record of building pipelines and connecting with candidates in niche or specialized roles
• Familiar with sourcing platforms, AI tooling, and modern recruitment technology
