Cathcart Technology

About the Company

Cathcart Technology is an independent, agile, specialist technology recruitment company, headquartered in Edinburgh.

Like all good start-up stories, we were founded in 2009 by two industry experts who saw a better way of doing things, in what was already a crowded market. Initially from a two-man cupboard in Edinburgh to a 40 strong team in the heart of George Street, it’s been a hell of a journey.

Bootstrapped all the way (start-up speak for no outside investment or loans), we’ve succeeded due to our hard work, honesty and ability to provide a service very few can match.

We quickly established ourselves as Scotland’s premier technology recruitment company, trusted by a mix of start-ups, scale-ups and some of the world’s biggest companies to find them their most important asset – their people.

Never one to sit still, we widened our focus in 2015 to recruit into the North of England (the homeland of one of our founders) and Bangkok where we are one of the most successful technology recruiters in the country, and since 2019 we have been growing another hugely succesful team in Finland.

We immerse ourselves in the heart of the communities we recruit for and organise both ScotML and MancML, two of the UK’s biggest and best data analytics meet-ups to champion the amazing things going on in Scotland and the North West.
