Some finance recruiters just crunch the numbers. We go deeper, building talent pipelines, ensuring culture fit, and using market insight to create long-term value.
Here are some of the most common questions people are asking us about technology recruitment, jobs and careers.
It depends on your recruitment needs: the role and hiring type. Permanent positions usually take 6 to 10 weeks to fill. For contract and temporary roles, we move faster – often within days to a few weeks – so projects keep rolling without a hitch.
We verify skills in the best talent through thorough interviews, technical tests, and checking references. For contract and temp roles, where speed matters, we focus on proven track records and relevant experience to make sure candidates can hit the ground running.
We’re committed to inclusive hiring, helping clients reach a broader talent pool, and promoting diversity in skills, backgrounds, and perspectives to build stronger, innovative teams. Learn more about our commitment to diversity.
Degrees in software engineering, IT, computer science, and data analytics top the list. Certifications in cloud platforms, cybersecurity, and project management boost your chances of securing a role. For contract roles, practical skills, hands-on experience and boot camps from well-respected IT companies often carry the most weight.
Salaries vary by role, experience, and contract type. Permanent roles offer stable packages, while contract and temp positions often pay a premium for flexibility and specialised skills. We can provide tailored insights based on your exact role and market trends.
Keep your technical skills sharp and build a solid portfolio that shows your impact. Equally important are soft skills: strong communication, teamwork, and adaptability help you fit seamlessly into any tech team. Being open to contract or temp roles can also get your foot in the door faster, build your network, and open doors to permanent opportunities
