When we tell some people we’re a <a href="https://www.bcorporation.net/en-us/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">B Corp</a>, they often smile and nod. That’s because the chances of finding a recruitment company that’s B Corp accredited is so small, it’s unlikely you’d have heard of it before.What is a B Corp?Certified B Corporations are leaders in the global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.It’s that stamp of approval that says, as a business you value society and the environment. We’re proud to be part of the movement.

We’ve donated over £250,000 and 1400+ hours of volunteering in the first five years of business. And we want to give even more. We love bringing clients along on this journey. Click below to find out about our current charity partner, and how you can get involved.Our Mission.We put people before profit. If that sounds like an empty promise, keep reading. We believe financial success shouldn’t be in lieu of social responsibility but work with it hand in hand. This belief runs through the core of our DNA

Understanding why a recruiter joins a company is tricky business. But we think we’ve got it nailed.

Ever heard of a company founded because of a book about giving back? You have now. The rousing ‘People Over Profit’ by Dale Partridge is why we exist.In the book, Dale outlines the 7 core beliefs that enable business leaders to break the old ‘profit-first’ cycle, achieve incredible success and have a huge impact, all by simply putting people first.And that’s what we’ve done. We’ve made recruitment, an industry which is inherently people-centric, about the people.So whether it’s our customers, our team, charity partners or communities – it’s people over profit.&nbsp;

We connect the best and brightest in tech &amp; digital talent across the UK, US and Europe with awesome, impactful and innovative organizations.We regularly turn down work if we don’t believe in the business. Our values have to match. This ensures we have more time and energy to represent clients we truly believe in, and do so 100% authentically forging stronger relationships between you and the candidate market.We’re big fans of those companies harnessing tech for the good of the planet and society and do all we can to help them build diverse and capable teams introducing new ways of working for great impact.

It's super easy to get started and get access to lots of great volunteering opportunities, Simply sign up, fill out your profile, search and apply.

We want Technology Volunteers to be as simple as possible in supporting your journey in finding the right people to get you moving along with tech. That's why, for now we'll manage your project listing and account for you, no need to sign up or register. If you would like to have your project listed on our site and have our wonderful volunteers come knocking at the door - all you need to do is give us a shout and we'll be in touch

Wir kümmern uns um die Gemeinschaft und die Umwelt und engagieren uns für das Gemeinwohl.Nachdem wir unsere preisgekrönte Agentur in den letzten 6 Jahren in Großbritannien aufgebaut haben, glauben wir, dass unser sozial verantwortungsvoller Rekrutierungsansatz auch in der pulsierenden Technologielandschaft Deutschlands funktioniert. Unser europäisches Team besteht aus Experten, die sich auf die folgenden wichtigen Tech-Sektoren spezialisiert haben: Cloud, SRE und DevOps, Computervision und maschinelles Lernen, Produkt- und Daten-Engineering.Wir sind mehr als nur Personalvermittler – wir sind leidenschaftliche Verfechter eines sinnvollen Wandels.

<h3>Our charity commitment</h3>
We make two charitable donations every year representing 5% of our profits&hellip; and that&rsquo;s not all.
To support organisations who are close to our heart, every member of the SR2 team will volunteer 2 days of their time to support them throughout the year.
In the six years since our inception, we&rsquo;re blessed to say we&rsquo;ve given over &pound;250,000 to local charities and supported them with over 2000 hours of our time.
You&rsquo;ll be pleased to know we&rsquo;re not stopping there.
If there&rsquo;s a charity close to your heart, one that is integral to your community, help us out by <a href="mailto:info@sr2rec.co.uk" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">suggesting</a> them for a future donation.

We have teamed up with <a href="https://thefutureforestcompany.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Future Forest Company</a> to help unf*ck the future! For every placement we make we will be planting a tree. The Future Forest Company are UK based and the candidate gets sent the pic and location of their sapling so they can go and visit their tree!

Sind Sie also auf der Suche nach Ihrer nächsten spannenden Herausforderung in der vielfältigen deutschen Tech-Branche oder möchten Sie mit einer Agentur zusammenarbeiten, um ein Tech-Team aufzubauen, das nicht nur Ihren Erfolg vorantreibt, sondern auch einen positiven Beitrag zur Gesellschaft und zu ethischen Tech-Praktiken leistet, dann sind Sie bei uns in den richtigen Händen.

Guaranteed warm fuzzy feeling inside.
