About Scrumconnect

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

Backend Developers

QA Engineers

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

Good organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple tasks

High attention to detail and a willingness to follow structured processes

A proactive, can-do attitude and comfort asking questions and seeking feedback

Basic familiarity with LinkedIn or other professional networking platforms

Team-oriented mindset with a genuine enthusiasm for learning talent acquisition

Strong interpersonal skills and comfort communicating with people at all levels
