Recruitment Consultant - Technology Contracts
Hove | Hybrid - 2-3 days WFH
£30,000 - £40,000 + Commission
If you're a recruiter who wants more jobs to work, quicker deal cycles, and the opportunity to earn commission without spending months building a desk, this is a great opportunity to move into technology contract recruitment.
You'll join an established specialist recruitment firm with a dedicated contract division supplying technical professionals to businesses across international markets. The team works with major consultancies, technology vendors, and end-user organisations delivering large-scale technology projects - creating consistent demand for specialist contractors who can start quickly and make an immediate impact.
The Market
Contract technology recruitment moves quickly. When businesses are undertaking a major cloud migration, responding to a cybersecurity challenge, implementing new infrastructure, or delivering a transformation programme, they often can't wait months to hire.
They need experienced specialists - quickly.
You'll recruit contractors across areas including:
- Cloud & Infrastructure
- Cybersecurity
- Enterprise IT
- Digital Transformation
- Technology Consulting
The team manages several large strategic accounts with requirements across multiple regions and technical disciplines, creating strong job flow and plenty of opportunities to make placements.
For a recruiter who enjoys the pace and buzz of recruitment, it's an exciting market to work in.
The Opportunity
You'll initially focus heavily on candidate generation and delivery, working live contract requirements and building relationships with specialist technology professionals.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
