IT Technical Recruiter(Australia based clients)

AI overview

Drive end-to-end recruitment for IT roles across diverse technologies while building strong candidate relationships in a fast-paced, performance-driven environment.

Zone IT Solutions is a specialist IT recruitment firm supporting enterprise and government clients across Australia. We operate in highly competitive markets where speed, technical depth, and candidate engagement directly impact hiring outcomes.

We are looking for a high-performance IT Technical Recruiter who can move fast, think commercially, and consistently deliver results across diverse technologies and locations.

As an IT Technical Recruiter, you will own the recruitment lifecycle end-to-end — from sourcing and engagement to screening, submission, and closure.

This role is ideal for a recruiter who:
✅ takes ownership like it’s their own business
✅ builds strong candidate relationships (not transactional calling)
✅ thrives in fast-paced, time-critical hiring environments
✅ brings technical confidence and market awareness
✅ is hungry for growth with uncapped incentives

Key Responsibilities (Results First)

1) End-to-End Recruitment Delivery

  • Manage full-cycle recruitment across multiple IT skill sets and locations
  • Deliver candidates quickly without compromising quality
  • Drive outcomes across contract and permanent hiring requirements

2) Proactive Sourcing & Pipeline Building

  • Proactively source and engage candidates through direct outreach and targeted conversations
  • Use LinkedIn Recruiter / RPS, Boolean search, referrals, and market mapping
  • Build and maintain conversion-ready pipelines aligned to active demand

3) Strong Candidate Engagement (Relationship + Trust)

  • Build strong candidate relationships through consistent follow-up and honest communication
  • Keep candidates warm, motivated, and ready to move quickly when roles go live
  • Create a strong candidate experience that improves offer acceptance and retention

4) Technical Screening & Commercial Alignment

  • Demonstrate solid technical understanding to assess skills, experience, and role fit
  • Qualify candidates on:
    • availability and notice period
    • motivation and role alignment
    • work rights / visa status (where relevant)
    • location / relocation / remote preferences
    • rate expectations / salary alignment
  • Present candidates clearly with structured summaries and strong submission quality

5) Delivery Urgency & Execution Discipline

  • Work with urgency in time-critical hiring scenarios (enterprise + government timelines)
  • Maintain high activity levels with clear prioritisation across roles
  • Follow up consistently to progress candidates through interview and offer stages

6) Client & Account Manager Collaboration

  • Partner closely with Account Managers and clients to understand role priorities
  • Push for feedback, interview scheduling, and closure outcomes
  • Contribute market insights to improve hiring strategy and speed

7) ATS & Reporting

  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date records in the ATS
  • Track and report on:
    • outreach activity
    • pipeline health
    • submission volumes
    • interview conversions
    • offers and joiners

What We’re Looking For

Must-Have

  • Proven experience recruiting for IT roles (agency preferred)
  • Strong sourcing capability (LinkedIn + Boolean)
  • Confidence speaking to candidates and driving outcomes
  • Ability to work fast, manage pressure, and stay organised
  • Ownership mindset + strong follow-up discipline

Good to Have (Big Advantage)

  • Experience recruiting for Australian market / time zones
  • Exposure to enterprise and government hiring processes
  • Knowledge of niche IT skill areas (Cloud, Cyber, Data, DevOps, ERP, Integration, etc.)

Requirements

  • Proven experience as an IT Recruiter or Technical Recruiter
  • Strong candidate engagement and relationship-building skills
  • Hands-on expertise with LinkedIn Recruiter / RPS and Boolean searching
  • Sound technical understanding of IT roles, technologies, and delivery models
  • Ability to recruit across multiple technologies and geographic locations
  • High levels of urgency, accountability, and ownership
  • Comfortable working independently in a remote environment
  • Outcome-driven mindset with comfort working to KPIs
  • Resilient, organised, and commercially aware

What Success Looks Like

  • High-quality pipelines built consistently (not last-minute scrambling)
  • Strong submission-to-interview conversion
  • Faster time-to-shortlist and time-to-hire
  • Strong candidate engagement and low drop-off rates
  • Consistent monthly performance with repeatable delivery habits

Incentives & Growth

This is a growth-focused role with uncapped incentives for performance.

You’ll be rewarded for:
✅ delivery outcomes (placements / closures)
✅ pipeline strength and consistency
✅ speed + quality execution
✅ contribution to account growth and client success

This Role Is Not Suited For Candidates Who

  • Prefer purely administrative or CV-processing roles
  • Rely solely on inbound applications or job boards
  • Avoid direct candidate conversations
  • Require close supervision to perform
  • Are uncomfortable with pace, targets, or accountability

Why Join Zone IT Solutions
