Recruiting regulatory talent to strengthen leadership, build organizational capacity, and create lasting impact
Recruitment expertise. Regulatory insight.
Finding the right people for a regulatory organization requires more than matching qualifications to a job description. It requires an understanding of the regulatory environment, the responsibilities of public protection, and the knowledge, skills, and judgment needed to succeed.
Regulatory Personnel Recruitment specializes in helping regulatory organizations identify, assess, and recruit qualified professionals, managers, directors, and senior leaders.
Backed by MDR Strategy Group’s extensive experience working with regulators, we bring a unique combination of sector knowledge, recruitment expertise, and established professional networks to every assignment.
From defining the position and identifying prospective candidates to conducting structured assessments and supporting final selection, we deliver a comprehensive recruitment process tailored to each organization’s needs.
We understand regulation. We understand the people who make it work.
Our Process
From our initial search planning meeting to hiring and onboarding, we take our responsibility as a strategic partner seriously and have refined our recruitment process to ensure the highest level of service for both the candidates and clients we serve.
Prior to posting an employment opportunity, we work closely with our client to learn about the organization, its challenges, and the Board’s short and long-term priorities. That enables us to identify the right candidate for the job. We also look at external factors that could affect an organization, from new legislation to location, all factors have a role in finding your next leader. You will receive a roadmap from us generated by you and our team outlining our path to success. This roadmap will include all the details to successfully hire your next leader.
1. Search Planning
Examining internal and external factors that may impact the search process, we conduct a current state analysis and provide a roadmap to a successful outcome.
2. Opportunity Profile
Serious candidates need more information. Our Opportunity Profile, also known as an Executive Brief is an in-depth profile for candidates about the organization, role, staff, and culture, and the municipality in which the role is located and other important information.
3. Marketing / Positioning
We employ carefully targeted digital and traditional channels to strategically market and position the job opportunity to attract the right top-tier candidates.
4. Strategic Sourcing
We connect with our networks to spread the word about the employment opportunity, identify the right candidates, and encourage them to consider a meaningful career change.
5. Candidate Screening
Our comprehensive screening process will evaluate candidates’ skills, experience, and fit for your organization. On the employers request, we also conduct competency analyses, and criminal record checks and other statutory verifications.
6. Interviews
Depending on the number of candidates and our client needs, we oversee a number of interviews. From an initial qualification screening to meeting the potential future employer, our interviews are tailored to ensure that the client can learn what they need - and what we feel they need from each candidate to make an informed decision about next steps.
7. Employment Offer
We oversee the fomal offer of employment and support candidates with the transition to be successful on the first day of work.

Our tailored onboarding solutions will help empower your new leader and support your organization through transition.
9. Post Placement Follow-up
Thirty days into the new role, we contact the new employee to check in, hear from them and the employer about the new team member, and identify areas of support they need.
