Permanent Staffing
The right hire, not just a fast one.
Permanent placements are high-stakes decisions. We take the time to understand your role, your team, and your standards — then we find candidates who genuinely fit, not just candidates who are available.
Direct-hire staffing is about finding the right person for a role you need filled long-term. Unlike temporary staffing, the worker becomes your employee from day one. Stersbury handles the sourcing and screening — you make the final hiring decision with confidence.
When permanent staffing is the right choice.
New permanent headcount
You're adding a role to your team and need the right person — not just someone available.
Replacing a departing employee
A key team member is leaving and you need a qualified replacement without a long gap.
Expanding your team
Growth is driving new hires and you need a reliable sourcing partner to keep pace.
Specialized roles
The role requires specific skills or experience that's hard to find — we work our network to surface the right candidates.
Our permanent placement process.
Role intake
We spend time understanding the role — responsibilities, required skills, team dynamics, and what success looks like in the first 90 days.
Targeted sourcing
We draw on our candidate network and active outreach to surface qualified candidates — not just whoever applied to a job board.
Personal screening
We review every candidate personally — verifying experience, assessing fit, and confirming genuine interest in the role.
Shortlist presentation
We present a curated shortlist of candidates we're confident in — not a stack of résumés to sort through.
You make the hire
You interview, select, and make the offer. The worker becomes your direct employee from day one.
Why employers choose Stersbury for permanent staffing.
Curated shortlists
We don't flood your inbox with résumés. We send you candidates we've personally screened and believe in.
No automated matching
Every placement decision is made by a person who understands your role and your operation.
Local market knowledge
We know the Ontario labour market — where qualified candidates are, what they expect, and how to reach them.
Reduced time-to-hire
Our active candidate network shortens the sourcing phase significantly compared to advertising alone.
