WE ARE HIRING FOR TEAM TECH... Umbilical Technology is a special business! It launched back in 2018, a year after Umbilical Life. I remember making the first business development call from our old office. The excitement of launching a new brand was immense! Since then, we have placed hundreds of candidates in innovation engineering positions across the UK, Europe, and the USA. I am biased, I accept that, but I think Team Tech is awesome and anyone looking to build a career in recruitment would be lucky to joining them. I asked Team Tech's Senior Business Manager, Charles Birch, some questions about why he chose to join Team Tech... Why did you join Umbilical? I believed in the people. After meeting Ben and the team at Umbilical, I knew that this was a business with a fantastic platform to become one of the leading recruitment companies in the advanced technology space - I wanted to be part of it! The energy, motivation and ambition from everyone here is inspiring and I knew this IS the type of environment which I wanted to not only lead, but also grow with.    Why should recruiters in Leicester choose to work for Umbilical?

I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PROUD TO COME FROM LEICESTER... The cultural diversity of the city, the people, the sports teams, the music scene, the city's expansive pieces of graffiti and street art, the parks, the universities, and the city's great businesses make it a really special place. I love my city, always have, always will. "I'm Leicester 'till I die" 🦊 HOWEVER... Recently the vibe in the city has been extra special, and a conversation with my colleague Alicia recently supported the fact that we've felt that little bit prouder to call Leicester our home. We launched Umbilical 7 years ago in the hope of building a special business, that would offer Leicester-based professionals a platform to create for themselves the kind of career that historically they'd have had to move to London or Manchester for... And this is something I believe we have absolutely nailed!!! I'm personally really passionate about Umbilical giving our people a platform to change their lives through performance-related pay and career development. And I'm confident that if you spoke with members of U-Crew, both past and present, they'd be able to pinpoint where the business had helped them improve both their professional and personal lives. So, here's the thing... We are hiring! And I'd love to speak with Leicester based professionals that have a burning desire to 'make it happen' for themselves. Recruitment isn't an easy gig... If it was, everyone would be doing it! BUT Get it right and I promise you, that you'll not regret making it your career of choice as I did 20 years ago! Reach out to me on the details below to come and be a part of something special. ☎️ 0116 461 0070 📱+44 (0) 7792230180 📧 ben@umbilical.co #recruitmentconsultant #recruiter #recruitmentjobs
