Job description

Build Your Market. Grow Your Own Team. Create Your Own Success.

At SF Technology Partners, we're looking for an experienced 360 Tech Recruiter to join our growing team.

This isn't a role where you'll inherit a desk and be expected to follow a predetermined plan. It's an opportunity for an ambitious recruiter to build their technology specialism in their own way, backed by an experienced and collaborative team who will support your growth every step of the way.

Whether your specialism is Software Engineering, Data & AI, Cloud & Infrastructure, Cyber Security, ERP, Product, Digital or another technology niche, we'll give you the freedom, trust and autonomy to develop your market whilst benefiting from an established brand, strong client relationships and a genuinely supportive environment.

Most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to grow beyond individual contribution. If leadership is part of your long-term ambition, there is a clear pathway to build and develop a team beneath you as we continue to invest in our technology division.

About SF Technology Partners

SF Technology Partners is part of the SF Recruitment Group and specialises in connecting exceptional technology professionals with organisations ranging from SMEs, high-growth businesses and PE-backed organisations, through to established national and international employers.

Our approach is built on expertise, relationships and long-term partnerships. We give our consultants the freedom to operate with an entrepreneurial mindset, whilst providing the infrastructure, support and collaboration needed to maximise success.

The Opportunity

As a 360 Recruitment Consultant, you'll be responsible for developing your specialist market, generating new business opportunities and delivering exceptional recruitment solutions across permanent, contract or interim technology recruitment.

You'll have the freedom to:

• Build a technology specialism that aligns with your experience and interests
• Develop your own client portfolio across multiple sectors and locations
• Create long-term, strategic client relationships
• Manage the full recruitment lifecycle from business development through to placement
• Build a personal brand within your chosen technology market
• Contribute to the continued growth and direction of SF Technology Partners

What We're Looking For

We're interested in speaking with recruiters who:

• Have experience operating a successful 360 recruitment desk within the technology market
• Can evidence success in business development and client acquisition
• Enjoy building meaningful client and candidate relationships
• Have a strong understanding of their chosen technology specialism
• Demonstrate ambition, resilience and a genuine passion for recruitment
• Are motivated by both financial rewards and long-term career progression
• Want the autonomy to shape their own future

Whether you're currently a Managing Consultant, Senior Consultant, Principal Consultant or an experienced Recruitment Consultant ready for your next challenge, we'd love to hear from you.
