Why MasterTech
Why MasterTech?
A Skilled Trades recruitment agency permanently placing technicians across North America, from apprentices to shop foremen and managers.

MasterTech is a direct-hire recruitment agency for the Skilled Trades, operating across the United States and Canada. We recruit all Skilled Trades, from heavy duty diesel and welding to power generation, telecommunications and shop management. We make contact with candidates directly, and by engaging with them we can assess their fit and interest. Searches run on contingency, with no up-front fees and the invoice sent only after the hire starts.
Who we are
Your success is our success.
Recruiting skilled tradespeople is a different game from recruiting office staff. They’re not spending their days on LinkedIn. They’re under a truck, on a job site, getting the work done. And the best ones aren’t actively looking for a new job. That’s the challenge we solve.
We recruit diesel mechanics, electricians, welders, millwrights and many other trades, plus the service managers, advisors and sales staff who keep a shop running. Our account executives work the same accounts for years, because a recruiter who knows your shop knows what it needs, and does the job so nice you can rely on them when you’re in a vice.
