A true partner in recruitment.
Specialist recruitment for UK engineering, manufacturing, automation and technical sales - built on 25+ years of hands-on industry experience.
Connecting exceptional talent with world-class manufacturers
Industrial Connected Talent was created to help solve one of the biggest challenges facing UK engineering and manufacturing: finding the right people.
After years of working closely with manufacturers across the UK, we saw first-hand how difficult it had become for businesses to attract skilled engineers, technical specialists and commercial professionals. At the same time, talented people were struggling to find employers that truly valued their skills and ambitions.
That's why we created Industrial Connected Talent.
As the recruitment division of Industrial Connected, we combine specialist recruitment expertise with genuine industry knowledge. We understand the companies we work with, the markets they operate in and the people who help them succeed.
Whether you're looking to build a high-performing engineering team or take the next step in your career, our focus is always the same: creating long-term partnerships that deliver lasting results.
We don't believe in simply filling vacancies. We believe in connecting the right people with the right businesses to help UK manufacturing continue to grow.

Hear from our clients
"They really took the time to understand what we were looking for and put forward a great selection of candidates - one of whom we were delighted to hire. Their honest, friendly, and professional approach made the whole process smooth and straightforward. We wouldn't hesitate to work with them again."
"We have been working with the guys from TCS for a couple of months now, and we've hired our first engineer through TCS already. First of all, TCS really took the time to understand our culture as a company, and what makes us unique as a business. This in turn, enabled them to screen for the exact type of candidate that would fit into our team."
"As well as getting the right people for the job, they have also been doing a great job in terms of pre-screening candidates before putting them forward to interview with ourselves. This has saved countless hours of potentially wasted time, allowing us to focus on the company whilst TCS made sure they hit the criteria required for an initial interview."
"I've had the pleasure of working with TCS on both internal and external recruitment, and the experience has been nothing short of excellent. From the very beginning, Tom and Callum made a real effort to understand not just the role, but who we are as a business. They asked thoughtful questions, took the time to get to know our culture, and even visited the office - which really stood out to me."
