Recruitment With MAYDAY
Technology
.
Technology hiring that understands how digital teams actually build, ship and scale.
At MAYDAY Technology, we understand how engineering teams operate, how products are delivered and what good looks like in evolving technical environments.
Our approach is built around partnerships, insight and care, so you get people who can contribute from day one.
The MAYDAY Experience.
Our consultants specialise in specific technology domains — not general IT. That means you’re working with people who understand architecture decisions, delivery cycles and the difference between “can code” and “can build”.
Working with MAYDAY Technology means partnering with a team that:
- Understands the build, not just the brief – We dig into systems, stack, team structure and delivery expectations so we can hire for real-world impact
- Finds engineers where they actually are – We engage passive talent across product, platform, data and cloud communities
- Validates capability properly – Every candidate is assessed for technical depth, delivery experience and team fit, not just keywords on a CV
- Moves at product speed – Fast shortlists without compromising signal quality or relevance
- Stays involved post-placement
– Because success is measured in shipped work, not signed offers
Whether you’re scaling a product team, modernising legacy systems or building cloud capability from the ground up, we act as an embedded part of your delivery ecosystem.
Meet Jo, Head of MAYDAY Experience.
Setting the standard for how we partner across every MAYDAY brand.
As a Co-Founder of the MAYDAY Recruitment Group, Jo leads the service framework that defines how we operate.
Alongside Imogen and Kat, she built what we call our Care Factor - a commitment to clarity, consistency and human connection in recruitment.
In Technology recruitment, that translates into something simple: hiring that doesn’t break when things move fast.
Clear process. Consistent communication. Decisions backed by insight and care. And an experience that doesn’t change depending on urgency, volume or market conditions.
Because in tech hiring, chaos is normal. Our job is to bring structure to it.
What We Do Differently.
Built Around Real Tech Hiring Needs.
Not generic recruitment cycles; real delivery environments.
We align reporting and service design to how technology teams actually operate: sprint cycles, release timelines and scaling phases.
