Keen People

Keen People is a UK-based recruitment agency specialising in technology and cyber security talent acquisition. Founded by Rebecca Keen, the company delivers pre-screened technical candidates through a fixed-fee subscription model rather than traditional commission-based recruitment. Keen People combines cutting-edge search automation with high-touch technical validation to provide clients with predictable, scalable talent pipelines, offering three flexible engagement models: AI Talent Partner for volume hiring, Fractional Partner for embedded continuous talent mapping, and Retained Search for senior and niche executive placements.

The agency specialises exclusively in information technology and cyber security recruitment. Keen People focuses on sourcing passive technical talent including senior platform engineers, security architects, developers, and infrastructure specialists across the UK market. The company leverages proprietary sourcing algorithms targeting 300 to 400 premium passive technical profiles, combined with expert technical validation from team members with deep infrastructure and engineering backgrounds.

Keen People operates primarily across the United Kingdom, serving technology businesses, fast-scaling startups, and SMEs throughout London and UK remote clusters. The agency differentiates itself through complete sourcing pipeline visibility, live salary benchmarking and market intelligence, and a commitment to genuine partnerships over transactional relationships. Clients choose Keen People for its transparent, people-led approach, fixed monthly investment models that eliminate surprise invoices, and consistent delivery of interview-ready candidates with average time-to-fill of two to three weeks.
