Recruitment Consultant - Permanent Agency Recruitment

Halian

Client Executive - Permanent Recruitment (Technology)

Dubai, UAE

This role is built for someone who wants to build a long-term career in technology recruiting in a recruitment agency.

What you’ll doing:

• Source and identify candidates for active engineering and technology leadership searches: Staff Engineers, Principal Engineers, Distinguished Engineers, Engineering Managers, VPs of Engineering, CTOs, and similar senior technical profiles.
• Manage candidate pipelines, keep the CRM clean, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. Coordinate interviews and logistics between candidates and clients
• Research target companies, map engineering org charts and CTO office structures, and build longlists for new search engagements.
• Build a sophisticated sourcing strategy where you target notoriously passive yet in high demand talent pools.

What you’ll grow into:

• Owning client discovery calls and managing client communication on active technical searches.
• Developing your own network and market expertise in software engineering and technical leadership hiring.
• Confidently discussing technical concepts with candidates and clients; you won’t need to write code, but you’ll need to understand what separates a good Staff Engineer from a great one.
• Eventually building and managing your own desk with full client ownership.

What we’re looking for:

• 1-3 years of experience in recruiting (agency or in-house), with exposure to technical roles.
• Strong written and verbal communication; you’ll be reaching out to Staff Engineers, Principal Architects, Engineering Directors, and CTOs.
• Knowledge and experience in sourcing, selection and market mapping.
