Why Venor in St. John's

We know Newfoundland's talent market.

Newfoundland and Labrador has a distinct economy shaped by energy, ocean technology, fisheries, mining, and a growing professional services sector. Recruiting here requires local knowledge, real relationships, and an understanding of how talent moves in and out of the province.

We recruit locally, regionally, and nationally, and we know how to attract talent to St. John's, which has become an increasingly compelling place to build a career.

How long has Venor been recruiting in Newfoundland?

We've had a presence in Newfoundland since the early years of our practice. As a recruitment agency with longstanding roots in St. John's, our relationships span the energy sector, public sector, professional services, and beyond, built over more than a decade of active work in this market.

Can you recruit talent to relocate to Newfoundland?

Yes. St. John's has a strong quality of life proposition that we know how to articulate compellingly. We've helped many organizations attract talent from across Canada to Newfoundland by positioning the opportunity and the place honestly and effectively.

Do you work in the oil and gas sector in Newfoundland?

Yes. We have experience recruiting in the energy sector, including offshore oil and gas, as well as the adjacent engineering, environmental, and professional services firms that support it. This is one of Newfoundland's defining industries and a meaningful part of our St. John's practice.

Do you recruit outside of the Avalon Peninsula?

Yes. We work across the province including Corner Brook on the west coast, Gander and Grand Falls-Windsor in Central NL, and Happy Valley-Goose Bay and Labrador City where mining and power generation are the dominant industries. Organizations outside St. John's often have a harder time attracting qualified candidates, and that's exactly where we can make a real difference.
