    September has seen an increase in hiring activity within the Australian tech scene after a sluggish 2023. It seems like the hibernation phase is coming to an end, although we don’t expect the post-COVID activity that we saw in 2021 and into 2022.

    Hiring a high-performing sales headcount is front of mind for many Sales Leaders, and, if not now, plans are taking shape for the new year, which is great to see.

    On another note, and off the back of our launch into the US, I’m excited to announce the launch of our Tech recruitment division!

     

    Data Center - IT Jobs and Recruiters - Pulse Recruitment

     

    Pulse Recruitment has always dabbled in Tech recruitment, but now we’ve made it official with a dedicated resourcing team offering a combined 40 years of Tech recruitment experience.

    This month, we have already placed a Senior Database Developer and two Tier III Technical Support Consultants. We also have several contract offshore Developers working on a project for an SI Client.

    We are also well on our way to building an offshore Centre of Excellence in the Philippines that will cover a range of functions. This remote workforce will offer Clients a low-cost, flexible option to hire highly skilled resources on a short-term contract basis with no locked-in set timeframes.

    We can also offer local contractors at short notice and find high-quality permanent talent ranging from Systems Administrators and Tech Support to Dev Ops and Heads of Cloud Engineering.

    Please reach out if you’d like to learn more about how we can help fill skills gaps in your projects or find high-calibre permanent staff.
