Deerfoot Recruitment Solutions

Deerfoot Recruitment Solutions is an independent technology recruitment consultancy. We have worked on IT hiring, and nothing else, since 1997.

We recruit permanent and contract technology professionals for UK employers, from mid-level engineers through to heads of function. Our specialisms are AI and data, cyber security, cloud, DevOps and platform engineering, software engineering and QA, infrastructure and networking, IT architecture, project and programme management, business analysis, and technology leadership. We work across banking and financial services, wealth management, automotive, publishing and the public sector, including security-cleared roles.

We are a remote-first team based in Hampshire, working with clients throughout the UK, with consultants covering London, Bristol and Manchester.

What tends to matter to clients choosing us:

• A six-month, 100% refund as standard. Nothing is invoiced on the start date.
• An externally audited process. Our candidate assessment is ISO 9001 certified and audited by BSI, and includes identity and background verification on everyone we submit.
• Placements that last. In our most recent audited period, 94% of our permanent placements were still in post after twelve months.
• Credentials that are checkable. Certified B Corporation, REC corporate member, FCSA recruiter partner.
• Experienced consultants. Our consultants average 19 years' experience, so clients get an honest read on the market rather than a sales pitch.

We also make one fee-free permanent placement a month for a registered charity, offset our carbon footprint through Ecologi, and donate to the Born Free Foundation for every CV we send.
