Our Franchising specialty practice is spearheaded by one of most experienced recruitment consultants with more than 30 years in the talent business. As a result, we have developed a particular niche in a vertical that is underrepresented and with exceptional recruiting hard to find.
Our Franchising specialty practice is spearheaded by Pat Laforet, one of most experienced recruitment consultants with more than 30 years in the talent business. He has developed a particular niche in a vertical that is underrepresented and with exceptional recruiting hard to find.
Pat has had two stints with Stoakley-Stewart Consultants. In 2006 he was presented with an opportunity to go to Africa and become the Country Manager of a Medical Mission working in the rural areas of Malawi. After 5 years of growth and expansion, Pat and his wife returned to Canada and accepted a Director Level position with Habitat for Humanity Toronto. He returned to re-join the firm in January 2014.
Since then, he has built a successful Franchising recruitment practice and has consistently been a top producer with our firm, year over year.
I used Stoakley-Stewart for recruitment services from Vancouver, BC for a remote role in Northern Ontario. Donna and team took the time to understand us and the role. They found someone in a timely manner, and communication throughout was great. We also used them to recruit one of our long-term managers 10 years ago, who still puts in an amazing performance!
