Anson McCade is a specialist executive search and consultancy firm operating internationally across the

Technology and Capital Markets sectors. We partner with innovative start-ups, high-growth businesses, and global household names, with many of our client relationships spanning more than a decade.

We are looking for an experienced Technology Recruitment & Business Development professional to join our Singapore team and play a key role in expanding our presence across Singapore, Hong Kong, and the wider APAC region.

This is a mid-to-senior level opportunity for an established agency recruiter who is confident managing senior client relationships, delivering against recruitment mandates, and developing new business. The more senior the individual, the greater the expectation to leverage an existing network to identify and bring on new clients.

The Role

You will have the opportunity to build and develop your own desk while working closely with our established teams in Singapore and the UK.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing and developing relationships with key clients across Technology, Fintech and Capital Markets.
• Supporting and growing existing key accounts, while identifying opportunities for new business.
• Developing new client relationships through your existing network, market knowledge and business development activity.
• Delivering end-to-end recruitment solutions across technical and specialist technology functions.
• Building strong relationships with senior candidates and developing a high-quality talent network.
• Conducting market mapping and identifying relevant talent pools across APAC.
• Supporting recruitment activity across Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand and ANZ.
• Providing clients with informed market insight on talent availability, hiring trends and key developments across the technology sector.
• Facilitating discussions and managing the process between clients and candidates.
• Working collaboratively with colleagues across Singapore and the UK to maximise opportunities and deliver exceptional client service.
• Support with other business lines, including our embedded recruitment model. You may be required to be embedded with a client if a key strategic opportunity arises, or sell our embedded offering.
• Other duties to support the business within your skills and experience, or with reasonable training.

What We're Looking For

We are seeking an established recruitment professional who combines strong delivery capability with genuine commercial and business development experience.

You should have:

• 5+ years experience in Technology recruitment, ideally gained within an agency, consultancy or executive search environment.
• A proven track record within agency recruitment or executive search.
• Strong client-facing experience, including managing and developing key accounts.
• Demonstrable business development capability and confidence engaging with senior stakeholders.
• An established network within Technology and/or Fintech; for more senior candidates, an existing client network that can be leveraged to develop new business.
• Work with our existing global client base and key active accounts, identifying opportunities to develop relationships further across Singapore and APAC.
• Strong knowledge of technology and fintech talent markets.
• Be comfortable working in a start-up environment and wear multiple hats when required to facilitate business needs.
• Excellent communication, relationship-building and negotiation skills.
• A resilient, ambitious and commercially minded approach.
• The ability to work autonomously while contributing effectively within a highly collaborative international team.
• Eligibility to work in Singapore as a Singapore Citizen or Permanent Resident. No visa sponsorship is available for this position.

What's On Offer

• The opportunity to build and own a recruitment desk across APAC.
• Strong backing from experienced teams in Singapore and the UK.
• Access to an established client base, including leading technology companies, global consultancies, and exciting tech start-ups.
• Opportunity to manage and grow key accounts, as well as develop relationships with additional stakeholders, teams, and business areas.
• Direct exposure to senior decision-makers and leaders within major organisations.
• A competitive base salary with uncapped commission and no thresholds – commission is paid on every $1 you bill.
• Genuine career progression within a meritocratic, high-performing environment.
• Significant autonomy to develop your market, client relationships, and career.
• A flexible and entrepreneurial working culture without unnecessary micromanagement.
• Hybrid working from a prestigious private members club in Singapore, including access to club facilities, exclusive events, and gym.
