Hawthorne Recruitment places senior communications and marketing professionals for organizations across Halifax and Atlantic Canada — VPs, directors, and C-level leaders who can lead strategy, not just execute it.
Hawthorne Recruitment places communications and marketing professionals at the senior and executive level for organizations across Halifax and Atlantic Canada. Based in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, the firm recruits Vice-Presidents of Marketing, Directors of Communications, Chief Marketing Officers, Public Relations Directors, and senior marketing and communications professionals for organizations in the private, public, and non-profit sectors.
Halifax is the communications and marketing hub for Atlantic Canada. The region's senior communications and marketing talent pool includes professionals who have led brand strategy, public affairs, media relations, digital marketing, and integrated communications for organizations of significant scale. Many of the strongest people have built careers spanning private sector, government, and non-profit — which gives them a breadth that pure corporate backgrounds often lack.
That breadth, combined with a tight professional community, means the best candidates are well-known and well-connected. They are not applying to postings. They are accessible to search firms with long-standing relationships in the market.
Communications and marketing leaders in Atlantic Canada operate in a specific environment: smaller teams with broader mandates, tighter budgets demanding greater creativity, and a public sphere where individual reputation is inseparable from organizational reputation. Hawthorne looks for the profile that fits — not just the resume that matches.
