We are excited to announce our upcoming launch in Dubai and are actively seeking skilled and passionate recruiters to join our team. As we expand into this vibrant market, we recognize the importance of local expertise and connections to successfully navigate the recruitment landscape. Your expertise in identifying new business opportunities, nurturing client partnerships, and expanding our network will be invaluable in establishing our brand and accelerating our success in Dubai.

You will play a crucial role in building our presence in Dubai, connecting talented candidates with exceptional career opportunities. If you are a seasoned recruiter with a deep understanding of the Dubai job market, we invite you to be a part of our dynamic team.

We’re results-oriented. We don’t waste time. We care about our candidates and their experience with you.

What we're looking for

    • Experience of exceptional delivery on difficult/complex requirements
    • You will have gained this in a recruitment agency or in an internal recruitment role. What we’re looking for is the ability to gather requirements perceptively, prioritise effectively, pitch amazingly and delight your clients with exceptional delivery. As an experienced tech recruiter, you should have recommendations form your placements!

    • Experience in Business Development within the UAE and Saudi
    • As a recruiter, your expertise in the local tech industry will be instrumental in sourcing top-tier talent and nurturing relationships with key stakeholders. This is an opportunity to contribute your expertise and make a significant impact in shaping the future of tech recruitment in Dubai. 

    • Reasonable baseline Tech Knowledge (at least!)
    • We can teach a good amount of tech knowledge to our tech recruiters; but if you’ve been in this industry for a number of years, you should have a broad understanding of technologies, in areas such as (but not limited to): technology stacks; programming languages; database and infrastructure technologies. We want (and great engineers love) speaking to someone who can literally "speak their language".

    • Track record of great candidate experience"
    • Technologists hate it when you don’t get back to them, or treat them like a commodity. Engineers and other members of tech organisations should want to work with you because you represent their interests effectively, and you treat them with the respect they deserve.

What you should bring to the table

    • Raw Intellectual Horsepower
    • Recruitment is fundamentally a puzzle; with lots of moving pieces which tessellate in complex ways. We need excellent problem solvers, who can weigh up complex competing requirements quickly and accurately.

    • True Intellectual Curiosity in Technology
    • How can you be a great recruiter in technology, if tech doesn’t fire your intellectual curiosity? Recruiters who aren’t orientated towards technology don’t go out of their way to learn about new techs. We want geeks who get excited by tech megatrends, gadgets, apps, games (or similar).

    • Rigorous Honesty
    • Recruiters have earned a reputation for playing fast and loose with the truth. Perhaps that’s overstated; but nonetheless, if we’re going to make a real impact on the industry we need to be rigorously honest recruiters. In reality, this means having the strength of character to tell the truth as completely and articulately as you can manage. Always. In the medium to long term, this is the only way to truly succeed in tech recruitment
    • We’re looking for a lot, but we won’t lower the bar for short term gain. If you happen to be successful in our process, you can rest assured that your mentor / peer group will have gone through the same rigorous process; you’ll get to work with a lot of other smart, honest people. We'll be able to teach you recruitment best practices like no other company in the recruitment industry - as our founders have led internal recruitment teams in great Technology companies.
    • As the bar is so high, we’ll be rewarding our Tech Recruiters with the best comp structures. Additionally, we won’t be tracking pointless KPIs (we don’t care how many minutes you’re on the phone), offer flexible working / WFH; all we care about is excellent delivery and you delighting your clients.

We are a *strictly* equal opportunities employer; we only discriminate based on competence, potential, and strength of character
