Every other recruiter says they specialise in tech. We actually do — no Finance desk, no HR division, no generalist CVs. Just Singapore and SEA's best IT talent, technically screened, shortlisted in 48 hours, placed in under 7 days.
Most recruitment agencies treat IT hiring like any other sector. They can't tell a DevOps engineer from a sysadmin. They forward eight CVs when they should send two excellent ones. And they call it a service.
Legatcy Recruitment was built specifically to fix that. Part of Legatcy Group — a Singapore-based consultancy with deep roots across Southeast Asia — we entered IT recruitment with one mandate: precision over volume. Understand the brief properly. Screen technically, not just by keyword. Deliver fast.
Today we place engineers, architects, and tech leaders at some of Singapore's most demanding organisations — from Series A startups scaling their first engineering team to enterprise IT transformation programmes that needed people yesterday.
Work with usEvery engagement model. One specialist partner.
Full-cycle recruitment for long-term technical hires. Brief to offer, handled end-to-end. You only interview candidates worth your time.
[Most Common]Confidential search for CTOs, Heads of Engineering, and Principal Engineers. Passive candidate pipeline, discreet process from day one.
[C-Suite & VP]Flexible specialists for project-based work. Rapid deployment for transformation programmes, surge capacity, or specialist skills unavailable in-house.
[3–24 Months]Dedicated IT teams embedded in your operations. Purpose-built for MSPs who need consistent NOC, helpdesk, and infrastructure headcount at scale.
[MSP Specialist]These are the five things we stake our reputation on.
No Finance desk. No HR division. No office manager roles tucked between the cloud architects. Every consultant at Legatcy works exclusively in IT — Cloud, Data, DevOps, Cybersecurity, AI/ML, FullStack. We know what you mean when you say "we need a platform engineer who actually understands Kubernetes at scale." That's not a stretch for us. It's Tuesday.
The average Singapore IT search with a generalist agency takes 6–8 weeks. Our process — Brief → Search → Screen → Place — cuts that to days. First technically screened shortlist in 48 hours. Typical time from initial brief to signed offer: under 7 days. We've done it in 3.
At most agencies, you brief a senior, get passed to a junior, and wonder who's actually running your search. Not here. Your brief stays with a senior consultant from kickoff to offer — one person who understands the role, knows the market, and is accountable for the outcome. Not a ticket in a queue.
When Singapore's local talent pool is tight — and in certain specialisms, it is — we reach into Malaysia and broader Southeast Asia. We know EP eligibility. We know the Fair Consideration Framework. No compliance surprises.
We publish Singapore IT salary benchmarks quarterly — pulled from our active placements, not a survey conducted 18 months ago. Before you post that JD with a band that won't attract anyone serious, talk to us first. We'll tell you exactly what the market is paying right now, and where your number lands.
Small team. Deep specialisation. Your brief never gets passed to a junior.
