Welcome to the team: Paul Melanson

Meet one of the newest members of our team! Paul Melanson has been recruiting in Atlantic Canada for the last 13 years and joined the MSG group about 5 months ago. His previous sales and business development background had him travelling the Eastern seaboard a lot so a career in recruiting (which involves much less travel) was very appealing as he had a young family at home.

During his sales and business development career, he often worked with recruiters to find his next role. When the opportunity arose to become a recruiter himself, he already knew the value of the role from the “candidate” side so it was an easy sell.

Paul is now a Senior Consultant for MSG’s Atlantic Canada region. He’s got a true passion for networking and helping to connect people. He values keeping things simple and transparent and isn’t afraid to tell you the hard truth or celebrate a win with you. Instead of calling you to talk about the specifics of a potential role, he’ll call you to chat more about you and your career aspirations. He takes a more holistic approach when working with candidates and clients so he gets to know the person behind the resume.

Paul says being a professional recruiter isn’t for everyone. You either love it or hate it. He definitely LOVES it as it’s a natural fit for his skills and personality. See more of Paul’s diverse skills, experience, and currently open jobs today.
