Job description

Scrumconnect Consulting is a leading UK digital and technology consultancy delivering impactful, user-centred digital services for the public sector. We partner with central government departments, agencies, and local authorities to build innovative digital solutions that improve citizens' lives.

With a growing team of engineers, architects, designers, and delivery professionals, we are passionate about building high-performing teams and creating an inclusive, collaborative work culture.

Role Overview

We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented Technical Recruiter to join our growing recruitment team. This is a great opportunity for someone early in their recruitment career — whether a recent graduate or someone with up to a year of hands-on or internship experience — to build a career in technical recruitment.

In this role, you will support end-to-end hiring activities, primarily focused on sourcing and hiring technology talent across engineering and QA functions. You'll receive hands-on training and mentorship from experienced recruiters as you build your skills in sourcing, screening, and candidate engagement.

You will work closely with hiring managers, candidates, and the HR team to ensure a smooth and efficient recruitment process while helping the organisation scale high-performing technical teams.

The ideal candidate is curious, eager to learn, and has strong communication skills — technical recruitment experience is a bonus, not a requirement.

Key Responsibilities

• Source candidates through LinkedIn, job portals, referrals, social media platforms, and other recruitment channels (full training provided)
• Support the team in building talent pipelines for technical roles including:
• Full Stack Developers
• Frontend Developers
• Coordinate and schedule interviews, including virtual, phone, and in-person interviews
• Assist with the recruitment lifecycle from sourcing through interview coordination and offer support
• Help post and manage job advertisements across company websites, job boards, and social platforms
• Screen resumes and applications under guidance, learning to identify qualified candidates for hiring managers
• Maintain accurate candidate records and recruitment data within the Applicant Tracking System (ATS)
• Communicate professionally and warmly with candidates throughout the recruitment process, ensuring a positive candidate experience
• Support onboarding activities for successful hires
• Assist in organising recruitment drives, job fairs, and employer branding initiatives
• Collaborate with hiring managers and HR teams to understand hiring requirements and recruitment priorities
• Learn and follow recruitment processes that remain compliant with company policies and GDPR standards
• Bring fresh ideas to sourcing strategies, hiring processes, and candidate engagement

Required Skills & Experience

• Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, B.Tech, B.E., BCA, MCA, or a related field
• 0–1 year of experience in recruitment, talent acquisition, or HR — this includes internships, campus placement cells, or academic projects; freshers are encouraged to apply
• Genuine interest in technical/IT recruitment, even without prior hands-on experience in the space
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Comfortable learning new tools quickly, including Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and sourcing platforms
• Good organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple tasks
• High attention to detail and a willingness to follow structured processes
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook)
• A proactive, can-do attitude and comfort asking questions and seeking feedback

Preferred Attributes

• Any internship, project, or coursework exposure to HR/recruitment processes
• Basic familiarity with LinkedIn or other professional networking platforms
• Interest in IT services, consulting, or technology sectors
• Team-oriented mindset with a genuine enthusiasm for learning talent acquisition
• Strong interpersonal skills and comfort communicating with people at all levels

Why Join Us?

• A genuine entry point into technical recruitment, with structured onboarding and mentorship from senior recruiters
• Opportunity to work with a growing digital consultancy delivering impactful public sector projects
• Collaborative and supportive work environment built for learning and growth
• Early exposure to large-scale technology hiring and global talent acquisition
• Opportunity to contribute to employer branding and recruitment transformation initiatives from day one
• Inclusive culture focused on diversity, learning, and long-term career development
