Role Overview

This is an entry point into one of the highest-performing specialist tech recruitment teams, now focused on building and expanding our presence across the DACH region. You’ll start by supporting live client engagements across enterprise technology accounts, working closely with delivery teams on sourcing, candidate management, and technical search execution across core infrastructure and cloud disciplines.

Over time, you’ll be coached into owning your own enterprise client relationships, developing accounts, and running end-to-end search processes across complex, high-value technical mandates.

This role is built for someone early enough in their career who is hungry to learn, commercially minded, and wants to build a long-term career in technical recruitment within agency, with a clear path into full client ownership.

If you’ve spent 1–3 years in recruitment or a client-facing commercial role and want to work closely with senior stakeholders across large enterprise IT environments in the DACH market, this is the seat.

Key Duties \& Responsibilities

What you’ll be doing from day one

• Support live enterprise client accounts across the DACH region, working closely with senior consultants and delivery teams

• Source, identify, and engage technical candidates across infrastructure, cloud, and enterprise technology roles

• Build and manage candidate pipelines, ensuring accurate CRM management and strong process discipline

• Coordinate interviews and manage end-to-end scheduling between clients and candidates

• Research enterprise clients and support mapping of technical teams, departments, and hiring structures across DACH accounts

• Contribute to client-facing conversations, helping prepare for discovery calls, role briefings, and candidate updates

• Develop outreach messaging for technical talent across roles such as:

o Infrastructure Engineers

o Cloud / Azure Specialists

o DevOps \& Automation Engineers

o VMware \& Network Engineers

o Cyber Security Specialists

o System Administrators

• Learn how to position opportunities to highly skilled and often passive technical talent pools

• Build an understanding of how enterprise IT organisations operate across transformation programmes (cloud migration, data centre modernisation, DevOps adoption, etc.)

What you’ll grow into

• Owning your own DACH client relationships end-to-end

• Running client discovery calls and managing hiring processes independently

• Developing deep market expertise across enterprise infrastructure, cloud, and cybersecurity hiring in the DACH region

• Confidently engaging with senior stakeholders such as Engineering Managers, Heads of IT, and CIO-level clients

• Building and managing your own desk with full commercial ownership and accountability

What we’re looking for:

• 1–3 years of experience in recruitment (agency or in-house), or a client-facing commercial role

• Exposure to or strong interest in technology, infrastructure, cloud, or enterprise IT markets

• Strong communication skills – you’ll be speaking with senior technical stakeholders and need to build credibility quickly

• Curiosity about how enterprise technology environments operate (data centres, cloud platforms, DevOps, automation, etc.)

• Commercial mindset with a desire to move into client ownership and account development (farming)

• Comfortable with sourcing and delivery early on, with ambition to progress into a full 360 client role

• Fluent English required; German language is a strong advantage given the client base in the region

Travel \& Work Conditions

This is a structured route into enterprise client ownership within the DACH tech market, combining hands-on delivery experience with a clear progression into account management and business development. You’ll be surrounded by high-performing consultants working across complex infrastructure and transformation programmes for leading global clients.
