We are Techne

We find talent in one of the most innovative and competitive markets in the world.

Talent is only found successfully with specialist knowledge of that sector, including its technical requirements.

That’s why no one at Techne ever contacts potential clients or looks for candidates until they acquire this knowledge.

Because only then can they gather data of real quality. Data we pore over and share with you to find and deliver a better standard of candidate, faster.

Search smarter

At Techne, we believe you can only be good at finding something if you know all there is to know about it. That’s why we invest heavily in training our own people to have excellent technical and market knowledge in their specific fields. This leads to a better understanding of client briefs, a meticulous approach to market mapping and a more dynamic candidate network.

Basically, it makes us an invaluable resource for anyone searching for talent in the challenging world of embedded and electronic systems.

However much we value smart thinking and savvy searching, more is needed to find that elusive ideal candidate. More understanding of your company ethos so that we can find like-minded talent. More collaboration to ensure our thinking remains aligned and success remains on track.

We achieve both by working with you throughout our talent search; encouraging weekly progress calls, sharing valuable market and candidate insights, and offering support and guidance throughout the acceptance process.
