Roneta stands out in the recruitment landscape by offering a deeply localized, highly personalized approach to executive search and contingent workforce management. Roneta is exclusively focused on providing recruitment strategies to its Calgary base, developing in-depth relationships with local candidates and employers. This distinct focus has positioned Roneta as a trusted partner for organizations looking to fill executive roles in accounting, finance, tax, and beyond. Moreover, Roneta’s success proves to the executive search and recruitment industry that a localized, specialized, and quality-driven approach can yield even more success for clients. “We can become that ambassador for employers and clients. Some clients need assistance attracting strong candidates because there isn’t enough information known in the market about their company. Many candidates know about the big well-known employers. We can help companies, and their unique opportunities stand out” says Chris Jackson, Co-Founder of Roneta.

While Roneta’s roots are in finance, accounting, and tax, the firm has expanded its capabilities to include a variety of senior roles in areas such as HR and other disciplines. “We have one of the largest databases of financial people in Calgary, and we can access neighbor communities very easily,” explains Jackson. This diversification was driven by client demand, as satisfied customers in finance and accounting began requesting Roneta’s services for broader hiring needs. Roneta leverages a robust, constantly updated database of top Calgary talent, allowing the firm to efficiently match candidates with roles while maintaining high-quality placements across sectors. To reiterate, Roneta’s extensive knowledge of local industries, including the oil and gas sector, enables them to provide tailored solutions that align with the specific needs of each client.

Roneta’s recruitment process begins with a thorough understanding of each client’s unique culture, goals, and needs. This includes a dynamic consultation, with a significant in-person component (sometimes unusual in today’s digital age), where Roneta’s team gathers insights on team dynamics, cultural fit, and reporting relationships. The team then creates a candidate profile, detailing both “must-have” and “nice-to-have” skills. They balance this profile with the client’s compensation range and other specific requirements, ensuring that each search is precisely tailored. Leveraging their broad network means tapping into sections of a certain industry with precision and clarity. “We want to help our clients market to attract the right candidates,” says Jackson.

For candidate outreach, Roneta combines their existing extensive network with traditional job advertising and cold-calling strategies, ensuring that they reach both active and passive job seekers. They also meticulously screen and interview candidates, providing comprehensive support through resume enhancement and interview preparation. This hands-on approach helps Roneta find the best possible match for each role, whether it’s filling a C-level position or a specialized role such as operations accounting in the oil and gas industry.

Roneta’s recruitment approach is designed to address common pain points in the hiring process. From managing excessive volumes of candidates to facilitating communication between clients and candidates, Roneta’s team acts as both ambassador and advisor. They bring urgency and focus to each search, preventing delays and ensuring candidate interest remains high through sometimes lengthy recruitment processes. “We want to maintain momentum throughout the process,” explains Jackson. Additionally, by acting as intermediaries in sensitive situations—such as salary negotiations or long hiring timelines—they help maintain candidates’ positive perception of the hiring organization. All of this adds a personalized touch which is especially useful in complex cases such as recruiting for multinational stakeholders with varying preferences and time zones.

While many firms prioritize growth, Roneta remains focused on quality. The firm prefers to maintain its close relationships and hands-on approach with existing clients and prospective ones. Roneta’s unwavering commitment to quality and personalized service has positioned it as a leader in Calgary’s executive recruitment and contingent workforce management sectors. By focusing on long-term relationships, localized networks, and innovative solutions tailored to each client’s needs, Roneta provides a recruitment experience that goes beyond to deliver exceptional results.
