Brisbane's Trusted IT Recruitment Agency

Queensland’s tech sector currently comprises more than 150,000 workers, and contributes $15 billion to the state economy. The Tech and IT workforce in Queensland alone is projected to surpass 360,000 by 2035 (ACS Digital Pulse 2025). As demand continues to outpace supply, finding and securing the right people requires the support of a specialist IT recruitment agency.

Ignite’s Brisbane recruiters go beyond the traditional recruitment process to find the right digital and IT talent.  It’s less about a candidate on paper, and more about understanding talent that can perform, work cohesively with other staff and stakeholders, and deliver on projects. 

Our Brisbane head office is located on Edward Street, where our team of senior IT recruiters work with businesses big and small across Federal Government, telecommunications, banking, and enterprise. We have a network of more than 870,000 work-ready professionals – including passive candidates you won’t find through a job ad or LinkedIn post. We’re proud to say that we’ve partnered with some of Australia’s leading technology brands including Thales Australia, Optus, Telstra, Huawei Technologies, and Westpac.

Brisbane is one of Australia’s fastest growing cities in terms of technology. Now home to more than 300 startups, Brisbane is behind only Sydney and Melbourne in the number of tech workers working both locally and remotely. Queensland’s tech workforce is projected to more than double over the next 10 years, with more than 200,000 new IT roles expected by 2035 (ACS Digital Pulse 2025).

The growth is evident in the number of new expansions, projects, and investments in Brisbane, between Microsoft’s $500 million Brisbane data centre; the expansion of NextDC’s facilities, the Brisbane 2032 Olympics, and the $19 billion Cross River rail project, which includes significant digital signalling and systems integration work. The sustained demand for IT professionals across cloud, infrastructure, and engineering disciplines makes for an exciting landscape for job seekers, and a competitive field for employers to find talent.
