The Story Behind momentum

After years in HR leadership roles, I knew firsthand the frustration of trying to fill contract positions. The "post and pray" approach left us with thin applicant pools and candidates who rarely understood the unique demands of contract work. Quality professionals seemed to avoid contract opportunities, while organizations struggled to find talent who could hit the ground running.

But I also saw the other side of the equation through my own career dreams. I'd always envisioned traveling across Canada, taking 12-18 month contract placements in each province - experiencing our beautiful country while building diverse professional experiences. The freedom and growth potential of strategic contract work fascinated me, yet I watched talented professionals dismiss these opportunities simply because they weren't presented properly.

This dual perspective—understanding both the employer's struggle to find exceptional contract talent and the professional's hesitation to explore contract opportunities—sparked the vision for Momentum Talent Solutions

Momentum was born from the belief that contract work shouldn't be a compromise for either side. When done right, it creates momentum for careers, businesses, and the broader professional community. We're here to make that vision a reality. One meaningful placement at a time.
