Crystal Heatlie
Recruitment Consultant and Operations Manager
Crystal grew up in a predominantly agricultural community in Western Quebec, that she still has strong ties to today. After post-secondary graduation Crystal spent time with the federal government practicing social work and law enforcement. This eventually led to a career shift where she fell into a role within the staffing industry, now 10 years later the rest is history. She has diligently worked her way up the ranks from Operations Support to Recruitment. She specializes in the recruitment of Administration, Accounting Operations and Property Management. She continues to grow and expand her skills and knowledge while pursuing her passion for helping people, problem-solving and ensuring the smooth day to day operations of the office.
Crystal has the unique ability to understand and anticipate the needs of candidates and clients alike based on her years of hands on experience in these roles. Her straight-forward, “can do” attitude and approach to life, combined with her sheer determination and relentless “country girl” work ethic will no doubt benefit her colleagues, candidates and clients alike.
Fun/Interesting Facts:

She and her family travel across Canada and the United States to world class competitions with their 6 horse hitch of Clydesdales.
