Industries We Support Across Ontario

STACK IT recruits IT professionals for organizations across Ontario. Select a sector to see how we support typical hiring needs and operating realities.

Healthcare & Life Sciences

Hospitals, community care networks, device and pharma teams rely on stable, well-documented systems and clear communication between clinical and technical staff. We recruit IT managers, support teams, and engineers who respect auditability, patient privacy, and change control in live environments.

Financial Services & Insurance

Actuarial consultancies, wealth firms, lenders, and reinsurers need hires who manage risk, maintain clean data flows, and communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders. We focus on candidates who balance delivery with governance and can support audits without slowing the work.

Technology, SaaS & IT Services

From product startups to enterprise platforms, teams require engineers and leaders who ship responsibly, document decisions, and keep systems observable. We screen for production maturity, clarity in handoffs, and the ability to work across product, QA, and infrastructure.

Manufacturing & Logistics

Plant operations and distribution depend on reliable networks, access control, and quick incident recovery. We recruit support specialists and infrastructure talent who keep lines running, align with safety practices, and document changes for smooth handoffs across shifts.

Hospitality & Food Service

Multi-site operators need IT that supports POS uptime, secure guest data, and predictable rollouts across locations. We place professionals who improve reliability, tighten vendor coordination, and keep frontline teams supported without disruption.

Real Estate & Property Management

Property portfolios rely on dependable building systems, tenant-facing applications, and clear vendor handoff. We recruit IT staff who document configurations, coordinate with operations, and maintain service quality across sites.

Consumer Goods & Retail

Brands and distributors need stable endpoints, clear inventory signals, and secure transactions. We focus on hires who improve store and warehouse support, reduce repeat issues, and keep data moving cleanly between systems.
