Frequently
Asked Questions

Techmercial specialises in placing talent who combine technical expertise with commercial acumen. We bridge the gap between engineering, science, software and business by sourcing candidates who thrive in roles such as Pre-sales, Product Management, Consulting, and Leadership. Alongside recruitment, we offer live assessment centres so companies can evaluate candidates in real-world scenarios before making a hire.

We work across the Technology, Software, SaaS, Engineering, Life Science and Healthcare sectors – particularly where technical and commercial skills overlap.

We specialise in technical-commercial hybrid roles, such as:
  • Pre-Sales Engineers / Solution Engineers
  • Product Managers
  • Application Scientists
  • Implementation Consultants
  • Technical Consultants
  • Commercial Leaders with technical backgrounds

Yes – although our sweet spot is the overlap between technical and commercial, we work with our colleagues at InterSTEM to support you on vacancies that are purely technical or commercial.

Our assessment centres are structured, live evaluations where clients can observe candidates perform tasks relevant to the role (e.g., technical demos, stakeholder presentations, customer scenarios). This provides a more reliable and dynamic view of a candidate’s fit than traditional interviews alone.

We provide structured feedback for each candidate covering both technical capability and commercial aptitude, including presentation skills, solution thinking, client empathy, and team fit.

We offer flexible fee structures depending on your needs, including:
  • Success-based recruitment fees
  • Flat-rate access to assessment centre days
  • Reduced rates for exclusivity or strategic partnerships

Depending on the complexity of the brief, we typically introduce shortlisted candidates within 5–10 working days. For urgent roles, we may be able to share qualified profiles sooner from our existing network.

All our candidates are vetted for their ability to think commercially, communicate with stakeholders, and represent technical solutions with clarity. Many of them have transitioned from R&D, Software Engineering, or Scientific backgrounds into Pre-sales, Product or Strategy roles – giving them unique credibility.

We work with fast-growth scale-ups, established SaaS companies, and global life science/engineering businesses. Whether you're making your first technical-commercial hire or building out a whole team, we can support at any scale.

Yes – we support both permanent and interim hiring, particularly when companies need project-based expertise in areas like implementation, systems migration, or product launches.

We do. As part of a broader hiring campaign, we can help craft messaging and outreach strategies to engage high-calibre technical-commercial candidates who may not be actively applying.
