Job description

Are you a strategic recruiter with a passion for building high-performing technology teams? Do you thrive in fast-paced, innovative environments where talent is the true differentiator? If so, this opportunity is for you.

We’re seeking a Talent Acquisition Partner who will take ownership of end-to-end recruitment for our Technology and Engineering functions. This is not a transactional role — it’s a chance to play a key part in shaping the future of our tech capability, partnering closely with business leaders, hiring managers, and candidates to attract world-class talent.

What You’ll Be Doing :

  • Partner with senior stakeholders across engineering, data, and product teams to understand their hiring needs and strategic priorities.
  • Lead the full recruitment lifecycle — from briefing to offer — ensuring an exceptional candidate and hiring manager experience.
  • Build and execute proactive sourcing strategies to identify hard-to-find talent across Cape Town and global tech hubs.
  • Use market intelligence, data insights, and recruitment analytics to influence hiring decisions and workforce planning.
  • Champion our employer brand through creative talent engagement, events, and digital storytelling.
  • Collaborate with HR and business leadership on diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives to drive balanced and future-ready teams.

What You’ll Bring :

  • 5+ years of experience in Talent Acquisition, with a strong focus on technology recruitment (Software Engineering, DevOps, Data, or Product).
  • Proven ability to recruit for niche or senior technical roles in fast-growing or high-demand markets.
  • Strong stakeholder management and the ability to build trust with technical and executive teams.
  • A data-driven mindset — you use metrics and insights to shape strategy and improve processes.
  • Familiarity with Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), sourcing tools, and recruitment marketing platforms.
  • Passion for tech, talent, and staying ahead of market trends.
  • Why Join Us :

    You’ll be part of a forward-thinking team that’s redefining what great recruitment looks like in the digital era. We move fast, think globally, and empower our people to make a real impact.

    Based in Cape Town , you’ll enjoy a hybrid work setup, a collaborative culture, and the opportunity to work on talent projects that scale beyond borders.
