SPECIALIST TECHNICAL RECRUITMENT
Built to bring more care to technical recruitment.
Verified Technical Recruitment was created to bring more care, structure and accountability to technical recruitment — giving clients clearer information and candidates more careful representation.
Built around structure, care and evidence-led recruitment.
/WHY WE EXIST
Technical recruitment needed more care, structure and accountability.
Technical roles carry real operational weight. Skilled professionals deserve to be properly matched, accurately represented and honestly communicated with.
01
Understand before searching.
We understand the role, the environment and the risk before approaching the market.
02
Verify before submitting.
Compliance and credential checks are part of how we work, so clients receive clearer evidence earlier.
03
Represent candidates clearly
Every candidate should be presented with care, accuracy and context — not reduced to a CV.
/FOUNDER CONTEXT
The reason behind the business.
After 26 years in technical recruitment, Gary Carmichael had seen the same issues repeat too often: vague requirements, rushed submissions, poor evidence and candidates represented without enough care or context.
Verified Technical Recruitment was built as a response to that — a more structured, transparent and specialist way to support technical hiring.
FOUNDER-LED BY EXPERIENCE
26 years in technical recruitment. Built to do it better.
I started Verified Technical Recruitment because technical recruitment should be more structured, more transparent and more accountable - for both sides of the process.
Recruitment should be consultative, transparent and built on trust — with clients and candidates treated with care throughout.
/THE CHALLENGE
Where recruitment loses trust.
Technical recruitment becomes difficult when either side feels poorly understood. Clients need clearer evidence. Candidates need better communication, context and consent.
Client frustrations
Candidate frustrations
What clients often experience.
These are the challenges employers tell us matter most when technical recruitment becomes difficult.
Poor candidate relevance.
“Do not send me people who are not right.”
Limited technical understanding.
“Do you actually understand the role?”
Cost versus value.
“Why should I pay your fee?”
Unverified compliance.
“Has this person been properly checked?”
Poor communication.
“What is actually happening with my vacancy?”
Speed without control.
“Can you move quickly without cutting corners?”
What candidates often experience.
These are the trust issues candidates often face when the process feels rushed, unclear or one-sided.
Poor communication.
“Has anything actually happened, or have I just been forgotten?”
CVs sent without consent.
“Where has my CV gone, and who has seen it?”
Lack of transparency.
“How can I make a decision if I only know half the story?”
Unsuitable roles.
“This does not reflect my experience, goals or circumstances.”
Weak feedback.
“What actually happened, and what could I improve?”
Treated like a transaction.
“They are not representing me; they are just trying to fill a vacancy.”
A better recruitment process has to protect trust on both sides of the hire.
/Our Approach
What we built instead.
Every search follows a structured approach through the Precision-Led Framework, with the Candidate Assessment Document used where it adds clarity.
