Be part of building the most extraordinary teams in tech.

There were plenty of tech recruitment agencies in London to choose from when I was looking to start my career in Recruitment two years ago, but I gravitated towards Burns Sheehan as I loved finding out more about their events and how they built their network. Since joining I’ve had the opportunity to work with some amazing brands, received three promotions and been on some fantastic trips abroad with the team!

Through my day-to-day life at Burns Sheehan, it’s clear that relationships are genuinely at the heart of everything we do, and this extends not only to candidates and clients but across the team too. Not every day in recruitment is a walk in the park, but being around such an amazing team who celebrate the good times and motivate you when the going gets tough I think is what makes us truly special.

Ellie

Principal Consultant - Product & Agile Delivery

I joined Burns Sheehan as a Graduate towards the end of 2016 & within 3 years became the Head of our Data practice. This was followed by becoming a Director in the business after 5 years.

My story is an example of the growth & progression you can achieve at Burns Sheehan due to the leadership and colleagues I had around me. Having a team and wider business of people who genuinely care about your personal and professional goals and work with you to get to where you want to be has been something I've massively valued.

Nick

Senior Director - Head of Data & AI

I joined Burns Sheehan in the Summer of 2021 as a Graduate Technology Recruiter and within 7 months, I was promoted to Senior Technology Recruiter.

Throughout my career at Burns Sheehan, I have grown more aware of the need for DEI advocates in the tech community. Burns Sheehan has helped me to recognise the importance of my contribution, which has resulted in me becoming an active member of the Future Leadership Programme team, specialising in matching female engineers and leaders to help more women break into tech leadership.

I also organise a Women In Tech Leadership roundtable event series, which serve as a quarterly meetup for like-minded, female Engineering Leaders. The primary objective of this event is to encourage all attendees to foster an environment that promotes a more inclusive and equal approach to hiring in the tech world.

Grace

Principal Software Engineering Recruiter

At two decades old as a business, you might expect a corporate vibe, but what I love most about working here is the dynamic start-up atmosphere. We're encouraged to think big, get creative, and step outside our comfort zone. We're not afraid to fail because we learn and grow quickly in a supportive and innovative environment.

Personally, I've experienced immense trust and encouragement to advance in my career. Our Founders & Directors have been incredible mentors, providing support and training that have empowered me to take on new responsibilities. Whether it's enrolling in courses or connecting with skilled mentors, they've always made sure I have the resources I need to develop personally & professionally.

Becca

Marketing Director

I started my recruitment career over in Australia and then in New Zealand where I was completely bought into the people side of the role and face to face meetings. I knew when I moved back to the UK that I wanted to work for a company that put the same emphasis on relationships and service that I’d experienced overseas, but a lot of the companies I interviewed with didn’t seem to value this over other KPI’s and I was sceptical about whether I’d find the right company for me.

I was drawn to Burns Sheehan because the entire fabric of the business has been built on relationships. We’re always encouraged to be memorable by getting out and meeting people face to face. Whether it’s by hosting an event or meeting a candidate for a coffee (or a beer). It’s what drew me into the industry in the first place and keeps every day different. 

Joe

Associate Director Software Engineering Recruiter

One of the best things about Burns Sheehan is that you get rewarded for your hard work. I started as a Graduate in 2016 and have since had five promotions to get me to my current role. I also just love the culture here - everybody is a genuinely nice person.

You also get a lot of opportunities if you put in the work. I’ve had the opportunity to work on-site as part of an Embedded Model at a couple of companies. It’s great to have that exposure from the client-side of things and be trusted to lead on those projects.

Tom

Senior Director - Head of Platform Engineering, Infrastructure & Security

Since joining Burns Sheehan in 2022, I have been given the opportunity to not only grow my knowledge and expertise in the marketing field but also lead on multiple initiatives including newsletters, events, & media campaigns.

I've been given the autonomy to manage projects across London and Manchester which has not only provided me with great exposure to the tech industry and networking opportunities but also a good excuse for frequent trips up to visit the Manchester team in their office.

My proudest moment to date would be leading my first large-scale tech event up in Manchester where I managed the event organising, email campaigns, social media advertising, digital assets, video editing & post-event analysis.
