Why Join NearTech

NearTech was built with a clear mission: to be a trusted technology recruitment partner to ambitious, tech-driven companies across the UK. That focus is reflected in the innovative markets we operate in and in our ability to truly align with what our clients and candidates need, never taking a one-size-fits-all approach. 


Working at NearTech mirrors that philosophy. You’ll be trusted and supported to build your own technology desk, learning from experienced recruiters within a close-knit, collaborative team. You’ll have autonomy, guidance when you need it, and the space to grow your market properly.

We don’t measure performance against generic KPIs. Every consultant and every market is different, and we believe success should reflect that. NearTech is entrepreneurial at its core, and we encourage our Recruitment Consultants to think and operate the same way. Everyone who joins us has a clear progression plan and we actively support you in achieving your long-term career goals. 


As part of the 11 Investments Group, NearTech offers the backing of a friendly, ambitious and highly supportive network of specialist brands. We share wins, collaborate across markets and create real opportunities for growth.

Supporting NWTS

NearTech Search is proud to sponsor the North West & North Wales Paediatric Transport Service (NWTS), a vital team helping critically ill children reach the care they need.


This cause is close to our Founder, Richard Thexton, whose daughter was supported by NWTS during a medical emergency. Their care made a lasting impact, and we’re honoured to give back.


We’ll be sharing updates on how we’re supporting NWTS and how you can get involved. Learn more at nwts.nhs.uk.
