Technical Recruiter, Johannesburg

Who is HelloKindred?

HelloKindred are specialists in staffing marketing, creative and technology roles, offering a range of talent solutions that can be delivered on-site, remotely or hybrid.

Our vision is to make work accessible and people’s lives better. We do this by disrupting traditional employment barriers – connecting ambitious talent to flexible opportunities with trusted brands.

Job Description We’re looking for an experienced Tech Recruiter to join us, supporting delivery for clients focused primarily on contractor hiring. The initial focus will be on a UK-based client and UK contractor talent, with scope to expand into additional clients and geographies over time.

You’ll recruit across a broad range of enterprise tech roles including data, software engineering, cloud/DevOps, infrastructure, security, architecture, ERP systems, and project/product delivery. Exposure to areas like UX/design or IT operations is a plus but not core.

We operate in a high-velocity model, typically sharing initial candidate profiles within 48 hours. You’ll be supported by the team but expected to take ownership and drive delivery outcomes.

This is an initial 6-month contract, with extension based on delivery outcomes.

What you’ll do:

Source and engage UK-based contract tech talent

Screen and qualify candidates for fit, readiness, and availability

Present candidates and manage them end-to-end through process and offer

Partner with the team to prioritise roles and maintain delivery pace

Support hiring across additional regions as part of a global team
