Talent Partner - IT

The Role: Talent Partner

You’ll join a high-performing technology recruitment team working almost entirely on exclusive assignments across software engineering, AI, data, cloud, cyber, infrastructure and digital transformation.

You’ll inherit warm client relationships, but we’re also looking for someone who enjoys opening doors, winning business and building something that’s genuinely theirs. This is a high-level, individual contributor role for a seasoned recruitment expert with the commercial gravitas to own client accounts and the emotional intelligence to mentor junior staff.

As a Talent Partner, you’ll:

• Take sole ownership of day-to-day recruitment operations for key clients, acting as their primary point of contact and trusted advisor

• Independently identify leads and open new doors through warm business development, speccing top-tier candidates into the market

• Produce hiring insights and market intelligence reports, using data to influence client hiring strategies and salary benchmarking

*Own the full candidate lifecycle end to end, including compliance, referencing and vetting, with total confidence and zero oversight required

• Whether you’ve got 1-2 years under your belt or considerably more, we want to hear from you. Bags of potential and the right attitude matter just as much as years on the clock, and we’ll train you up wherever you need it

• Technology or technical recruitment experience preferred, ideally with a track record of good billings

• Comfortable working in a 360 role, or keen to learn. We’ll happily teach you how to go out, spot new business and build relationships beyond our existing sweet spot

• Happy to work from our Derby office three days a week

• Ambitious, curious and excited by what AI can do for our profession

EMBS are hiring, but this isn’t just another recruitment job. It’s an opportunity to build something alongside our incredible team.

Let’s start here… Employment is a partnership, right? That’s what we think. You don’t work for us. We work together, as equals.

Not because we’ve got a desk to fill, but because we genuinely believe we can help change somebody’s career for the better.

The deal is simple.

You work your socks off for our clients and candidates. You keep learning. You embrace AI. You build brilliant relationships. You thrive and love your life.

We’ll do everything we can to help you build a career you’re proud of.

We’ve spent more than 20 years building technology recruitment businesses. Winning clients. Filling difficult roles. Leading teams.

Helping recruiters build careers of their own. Some have become directors. Some have started businesses. Many have bought homes, raised families and built lives they’re proud of. That’s the bit we’re most proud of. It’s what gets us out of bed every morning.
