The Key Partnership Promise…
Key Partnership makes recruitment a breeze for our Clients, and a smooth process for our Candidates. We are a Business Built on Relationships and apply this simple principle to everything we do. Headquartered in South Northamptonshire, we have highly engaged networks of Top Tech Talent across the Home Counties (Bucks, Beds, Northants & Herts), but can support our Clients nationwide.
We are extremely passionate Technology Recruiters first, and award-winners second. Unlike other recruitment firms, Key Partnership purposely keeps a relatively small Client portfolio compared to our competitors, allowing us to properly understand our Clients’ business, along with their culture, values, and growth aspirations.
We understand the continued challenges that employers are facing when recruiting into their Technology Teams, with the need for talent in the tech sector skyrocketing. There is a clear skill shortage, and companies are hungrier than ever for the best talent available. This is where Key Partnership can help.
We cover the Full Stack of Software Development, with fantastic networks of Back-end, Front-end & Full Stack Developers, Architects, Testers, and Product Managers. We have scaled Software Development teams for household brands, billion-pound turnover companies as well as start-ups with the innovations of tomorrow. Software Development is our absolute area of expertise, and where Chapter 1 of our great recruitment story began!
Whether you are a business looking to grow an IT Support team, boost your IT Infrastructure & Networking capabilities, or deliver Technology Rollouts and Implementations, Key Partnership can help. We have built and grown Industry Accredited Technology Teams on behalf of both FTSE-250 and Fortune 500 Companies, as well as small and medium-sized businesses.
Having access to data and being able to deliver it is crucial for every business’ success. We can help you grow teams of BI Developers, Database Administrators, and Architects, so you can clearly visualise the future of your business.
We are sector agnostic, with Clients in industries such as Hospitality & Retail, Medical, Professional Services as well as SaaS and Tech Vendors. We consult, not push, and are ambassadors for your Corporate Brand. Here is what our clients say:

Matt has helped me with my recruiting needs as the Head of the Development department. After trying a few agencies, I was contacted by Matt and I was able to leave the rest up to him. He is excellent in communication and quickly understands requirements. He was respectful of our budget and specific needs and provided many suitable candidates from which I could choose. I confidently and highly recommend him.

We had an urgent requirement for a position, which we were finding difficult to fill with another recruitment company. We were introduced to Key Partnership, so I decided to call and explain our difficulty.
Matt was both helpful and encouraging, he understood our needs and responded the same day with a selection of candidates, 2 of which were an excellent fit for our needs.
Thanks to Matts’s persistence, professionalism, and great networking, we have filled our vacancy with an excellent candidate, and all within 7 days of my original phone call.
Great service, professionalism, and a successful swift appointment, exactly what we asked for.

Recruitment was a dreaded task. Our adverts would land and the inevitable spam arrives shortly after, so it was a huge relief to be able to partner up with Matt and begin to receive well-vetted candidates, with the right skills and a desire to work for our organisation because of the things we are doing.
