Paulo Brinholi - Founder & Principal Consultant

With years of hands-on experience in recruitment and Talent Acquisition leadership, I have a proven track record of helping organizations attract and hire with quality. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across various industries, leading teams and building strategies that align recruitment efforts with organizational goals. I specialize in creating tailored recruitment solutions that go beyond just filling roles — I focus on building a culture of hire that enhances long-term performance and growth. Whether leading large-scale hiring projects or refining talent pipelines, my goal is to help companies recruit better, not just more.

Most importantly, I’m a proud husband to a beautiful, supportive wife and a father to two amazing kids. Coaching them in their favorite sports—soccer and baseball—is a privilege where we have fun and grow together. I also have a passion for Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and you can learn more about it at  https://www.advantagejiujitsu.ca/our-team/ 😉
