Nanotechnology is one of the most niche areas of technical recruitment, and one of the most rewarding. We work with businesses developing semiconductors, photonics, advanced materials, and novel devices, recruiting the engineers and scientists who work at this scale of physics. The talent pool is small, and our network in it is one of the deepest in the UK.
Nanotechnology is a small market, and our consultants stay in it rather than recruiting across general scientific roles. They know the names, the labs, and the businesses doing the most interesting work in this space. They understand why a process engineer from semiconductor fabrication might be the right hire for an advanced materials business, and why someone from one corner of photonics might bring exactly the cross-pollination another business has been missing. That depth of network is what we bring to every brief, and it’s why most of our work in this sector is repeat business from people who know us by name.
We recruit across permanent, contract, and interim briefs in nanotechnology, and we’ll always give you a straight view on the role – whether the salary fits what you’ll need to attract the right person from a small talent pool, where the spec might benefit from a tweak, and which type of hire makes sense if you want our take. Permanent hires usually make most sense for the engineers and scientists who’ll build long-term technical depth. Contract or interim works for specific research programmes, fabrication projects, and the periods where a business needs niche expertise for a defined window.
