About Martina

Martina Sarro is an experienced, Alberta-based headhunter known for her impressive network, honest perspective, and ability to identify exceptional talent.

Her work is built on trust. Her goal isn't focused on simply filling a role but rather on shaping teams and making hiring decisions that strengthen organizations over time.

As such, Martina approaches every search with a deep understanding of both people and business. She takes the time to understand leadership styles, company culture, and strategic goals before any candidate is considered, let alone approached.

The result is a search process that is uniquely selective and incredibly rewarding!

“After years of building trusted relationships across multiple industries, I recognized a growing need for a more thoughtful and strategic approach to recruitment — one that prioritizes alignment over volume.”

Founder & CEO

Martina Sarro

Martina Sarro is the Founder & CEO of Bravn Talent, where she leads each search with a clear and core belief: the right hire elevates everything.

She began her career in executive headhunting within a high-level leadership forum, quickly earning a reputation for instinct, discretion, and an uncompromising approach to value-centric relationship building.

Martina is deliberately selective in the clients she takes on, partnering with organizations that value thoughtful decision-making and lasting impact over speed in the interest of simply filling an empty seat. Her work focuses on identifying individuals who bring not only capability but culture fit, sound judgment, and the ability to elevate those around them.

Known for her polish, warmth, and candour, she has built an impressive portfolio of trusted relationships with clients and candidates alike. Every search she leads is handled with care, clarity, and a strong sense of accountability.
