Calling Tech Recruiters we need you! As we continue to expand our Technology teams at a rapid rate we’re looking for talented tech recruitment specialists to join us in ramping up our recruitment for Tesco Technology. Joining us means playing a part in sourcing talent which will define, build and launch an ambitious roadmap of digital products that could touch the lives of millions of people over the years to come.

Our teams have access to the best sourcing tools and platforms and you will be part of a great team of like-minded tech recruiters who are passionate about delivering great results and partnering with hiring managers who really get our challenges and act on our recommendations.

We like to innovate and try new things, so if you bring ideas we will listen and try new things out! We don’t want people to just turn a wheel, we want to make a difference and add real value! Our world is fast paced and demanding, but hugely rewarding so if you love recruitment and are passionate about your career, there are lots of opportunities to develop and progress here.
