Level Up Your Recruitment Career: Join La Fosse

Who we are:

At La Fosse, we do things a little differently. We’re an employee-owned talent solutions business that specialises in technology, digital, and change, but at our core, we’re all about people.

Our goal is to create a working world where talent is recognised for what it brings to the table, not where it comes from. That’s why we work with organisations of all sizes to solve people and business challenges, whether that’s helping them find great talent, build long-term capability, or shape future leadership. We do this through our recruitment, academy, solutions, and executive search services.

What really sets us apart? Everyone here has a stake in the business. We’re employee-owned, which means we all have a voice, and we all share in the success we create. That sense of ownership shapes everything, from how we make decisions to how we support each other to grow.

There’s a genuine focus on learning, development, and helping people build careers they’re proud of. You’ll be part of a team that’s collaborative, down-to-earth, and serious about making an impact, but without taking itself too seriously.

You’ll partner closely with customers to understand their needs and deliver high-impact talent solutions, while building strong, long-term relationships with top front-end developers across the UK.

The Team
Thanks to an internal move, one of our highest-performing desks is now open. You’ll step into a role that already has huge momentum, with the flexibility to either operate as a standalone high-biller or lead a team of five who collectively generate over £1.5m annually.
