Ryan St. Germaine

Entrepreneur, online strategist and proud Vancouverite, Ryan St. Germaine is the chief executive officer for BCjobs.ca and Jobcast.net – two recruitment technology companies based in Vancouver, B.C. When not working with his team or typing away 140 characters at a time, Ryan can be found snowboarding the local mountains or fly fishing on the Skagit River.

From the age of 14, Ryan has been involved in various entrepreneurial endeavours with the help of his father and mentor. He quickly learned the value of a dollar by sweeping parkades and washing dishes through his father’s companies. This upbringing gave Ryan a stable foundation and taught him the value of hard work, determination and sound business relationships. He embraced his father’s commitment to helping family, friends, clients and staff and considers this a fundamental key to a successful business. With a passion for online strategy and business development, Ryan has translated his background and interests into an innovative and successful business.

Dedicated to helping B.C. businesses grow through the acquisition of top talent, Ryan is often at conferences, trade shows, career fairs, networking functions and meetings with hiring managers in small, medium and large-sized companies throughout the province.
