JOB DESCRIPTION:

Tech Recruiter (Candidate Focused)

Basic & Commission Structure dependent on Level

Work from Home (Always)



The candidate focused recruiter is critical in identifying, sourcing and placing top technical talent for our valued clients across Cape Town. You don’t need to be excited about bringing in new business and landing big clients – your area of expertise lies in recruiting great talent and walking them through the recruitment process while having a fun doing so. You will be responsible for proactively sourcing, screening, interviewing, and placing qualified candidates, and partnering with the account manager throughout the full recruitment cycle. The ideal candidate will thrive in a small, but fast-paced boutique specialist agency and will work with a small team and a few external partners.

Here’s who we are looking for from a personality perspective, is this you?

  • A self driven individual who cares about quality and takes pride in the work they produce
  • A person who values their reputation, and conducts their work in an honest and ethical manner
  • You need to actually enjoy recruitment – not everyone does, we are looking for those rare gems who do
  • The ideal candidate will think out the box when needed, to find solutions to recruitment challenges
  • You naturally build strong relationships, you have a kind demeaner, but can be firm when required
  • You are interested in, and excited by technology
  • Ability to look up and learn new areas of technologies that you don’t have exposure to independently and continuously build your knowledge in this area to ensure more effective matches across various stacks and areas of technology
  • You have a sense of humour, along with a strong moral compass
  • You are people centric, and have a genuine care for the wellbeing of others

These are the kinds of things that will keep you busy

  • Research, source, identify and interview candidates for open positions allocated to you
  • Continuously build and expand your network as well as your personal brand within Progressive Edge
  • Build strong relationships with your candidates
  • Walk candidates though the entire recruitment cycle
  • Update and maintain the ATS giving care to data quality
  • Both permanent and contracting positions will form part of your portfolio
  • Work with the team in streamlining processes to continuously improve business processes and workflows
  • Continuously attract talent by using multiple sources to advertise and recruit
  • Continuously build a talent pipeline and referral network
  • Negotiating offers
  • Ad-hoc administrative duties
  • Develop and update job descriptions
  • Efficiently manage a strong candidate flow to the team
  • Identify and implement new innovative ways to source and connect with talent
  • Always uphold the values of the brand in all your interactions and on social media

Requirements

  • 3 to 4 years experience in recruiting as a minimum
  • Experience in hiring for IT / Tech related positions essential
  • Experience supporting a fast-paced organization.
  • Experience using an ATS (applicant tracking system)
  • Strong attention to detail
  • Excellent organizational skills
  • Exceptional communication skills – both written and verbal
  • You need to have both the ability and confidence to engage with high level senior candidates
