Senior Recruitment Consultant | Waterloo / Hybrid (3 days in the office) | £35,000 - £45,000

Build the next version of a tech recruitment brand. Not just bill into it.

Last year was noisy.

Tech slowed down. Budgets froze. Teams shrank. Some recruiters panicked. Some jumped ship.

Now? The market’s moving again.

Old clients are hiring. VC-backed start-ups are opening their portfolios. AI isn’t a buzzword anymore - it’s a budget line. And there are more roles on the table than this specialist tech agency can currently deliver.

Which is where you come in.

This is an established name in DevOps, cloud and platform recruitment. Years of credibility. Deep engineering networks. Real community presence.

Now they’re doubling down on AI, machine learning and modern data - without losing their engineering roots.

And they want experienced recruiters to help build it.

Community, not cold calling marathons.

This business is known for the communities it runs - one of the largest tech meetups in the world - 20,000+ members. Seven events across five countries.

These aren’t vanity projects. They’re pipelines.

You’ll meet founders, CTOs and senior engineers face to face. You’ll build a personal brand off the back of real events. You’ll turn speakers into clients. Attendees into candidates. Content into conversations.

It’s warm. It’s credible. And it works.

The market you’ll operate in.

High-value, modern tech.

AI and ML engineers regularly earning £150k+.

Typical permanent fees around £20k.

Roles ranging from first engineering hires in early-stage start-ups through to major consultancies scaling entire teams.

Demand is back. Stronger. Sharper. Better funded.

The tools are modern too.

Bullhorn CRM.

AI tools built in Replit to summarise calls and create targeted searches.

ChatGPT-based workflows to shortlist effectively from large data sets.

No dinosaur tech. No spreadsheet chaos.

You’ll likely have 2+ years in tech recruitment – software, cloud, DevOps, data or AI/ML.

You’ll have consistent billing behind you. Stability. Evidence you can build relationships, not just spike a quarter.

You’re comfortable speaking to founders and CTOs.

You don’t need your hand held.

You’re genuinely curious about AI and modern engineering.

And you want to attach your name to something credible in this space.

£35k–£45k basic depending on experience - but realistically they're open minded. If you billed it, they can build it.

Hybrid working – around three days a week in the Waterloo office.

If you’re an experienced tech recruiter who wants to build a genuine name in AI and DevOps – backed by real communities and an established brand – this could be your move.
