Contract IT Recruiter - Own the tech hiring sprint

Philadelphia, PA

Step into a short, sharp mission that actually moves the needle

You know how to build tech pipelines fast. Now put that skill to work for a global insurance organization with serious technology ambitions.

You’ll own full-cycle recruiting for priority IT roles across software engineering, data, cloud, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and digital platforms. No endless meetings, no fuzzy brief – this is a focused delivery engagement with a clear mandate and defined end date.

You’ll be the one partnering directly with hiring managers, shaping searches, and getting offers over the line.

If you’ve recruited tech talent and love the rush of a well-run hiring sprint, we want to talk to you.

What You'll Work On

You’ll be the go-to recruiter for critical technology hiring, including:

• Software engineering and application development roles
• Data and analytics positions
• Cloud engineering and related platforms
• Cybersecurity and information security roles
• IT infrastructure and operations positions
• Digital platforms and technology product roles
• Priority, high-visibility tech vacancies across multiple teams
• Pipeline-building for recurring and hard-to-fill IT positions

This is hands-on, full-cycle IT recruiting for a global insurance technology organization.

What You'll Be Doing

• Partnering with hiring managers to clarify IT role requirements, timelines, and interview processes
• Running intake conversations and setting expectations on market, profiles, and process
• Sourcing and engaging qualified IT candidates through direct outreach, networks, and job boards
• Using advanced Boolean search and LinkedIn Recruiter to uncover and attract technical talent
• Screening candidates for technical fit and motivation before presenting shortlists
• Managing the full recruiting cycle from intake to offer support and acceptance
• Scheduling interviews and keeping candidates and stakeholders aligned throughout
• Building and maintaining active pipelines for high-priority tech roles
• Tracking activity and progress against agreed hiring targets and timelines
• Representing the client professionally with candidates and internal stakeholders
• Balancing multiple tech requisitions and hiring managers at once
• Owning delivery on a defined, short-term contract engagement

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience recruiting for IT / technology roles (software, data, cloud, security, or infrastructure)
• Strong sourcing skills, including Boolean search, LinkedIn Recruiter, and direct outreach
• Ability to manage multiple requisitions and stakeholders simultaneously
• Comfort communicating clearly with both technical candidates and business hiring managers
• Track record of working independently and hitting delivery targets on recruiting projects
• Experience supporting hiring within structured, process-driven organizations
• Background recruiting for digital platforms or enterprise technology environments
• Exposure to regulated industries such as insurance or financial services (a plus)

Why This Opportunity?

This is a chance to plug into a global insurance technology environment and run a focused recruiting sprint without the long-term corporate drag.

You get a clear brief, real ownership of your reqs, and direct access to IT hiring managers who need talent now.

If you like to move fast, deliver visible results, and then choose your next move, this short-term contract is built for you.
