Oxford is known for its world-class university, but its business landscape is equally impressive – a thriving ecosystem of tech start-ups, research-driven SaaS firms, healthtech ventures, and digital consultancies. In a city defined by intelligence and innovation, the bar for talent is set high.
At Live Digital, we help Oxford’s most ambitious employers meet – and exceed – that bar. We’re a specialist recruitment agency in Oxford that delivers high-performing candidates in SaaS, Digital Marketing, Data, and Project Management roles. Whether you’re building out a product team in a science park, scaling a SaaS company in the city centre, or growing a digital function inside a global consultancy – we help you find people who make an impact.
There’s no shortage of recruiters - but few truly understand the digital, tech, and data landscape. At Live Digital, we bring targeted expertise, a Midlands-wide talent network, and a consultative approach that sets us apart.
Hiring in Oxford presents a unique set of challenges. The talent pool is rich – but selective. Candidates are highly qualified, but often passive. And with competition from London-based firms offering hybrid roles, attracting top talent locally can feel like an uphill battle.
That’s where we come in. We don’t rely on job boards or cookie-cutter CVs. We work closely with founders, hiring managers and HR leads to understand exactly what you need – and deliver it. Fast.
We understand technical and commercial roles.
We know what it takes to hire a SaaS AE with consultative selling skills, a Digital Marketer who can balance brand with performance, or a Data Analyst who can communicate clearly with senior stakeholders. Our team is sector-led – not sales-led – so we speak your language.
We know Oxford’s business culture.
We’ve worked with spin-outs, venture-backed start-ups, global corporates, and everything in between. We understand the pace, nuance, and expectations of hiring in a high-calibre city like Oxford.
We focus on alignment.
Our recruitment approach goes beyond the job spec. We look for cultural fit, learning mindset, communication style, and long-term potential. You won’t get a pile of CVs – you’ll get a shortlist of people who can thrive in your team.
We’re fast – but we don’t cut corners.
Our search process is structured, proactive and built for speed. We prioritise quality and communication, helping you hire with confidence – not compromise.
Oxford is a rising star in the UK SaaS ecosystem, with companies building products across AI, biotech, healthtech, and enterprise software. But hiring in this space is tough – the best candidates are already working and not scrolling job boards.
Live Digital helps SaaS founders, Heads of Sales, and Product Leads find commercial and product talent that can grow with the business. From SDRs and CSMs to Product Owners and Go-to-Market specialists, we tailor every search based on your growth stage, team structure, and GTM model.
We understand that early hires in SaaS are critical – and we help you get them right.
From global education brands to high-growth agencies and mission-driven eCommerce platforms, Oxford’s digital footprint is expanding – and so is the demand for marketers who can deliver real results.
We support digital teams across performance, content, CRM, and strategy – helping you hire marketers who understand channels, budgets, and customer journeys. Whether you’re launching paid media campaigns, building brand visibility, or scaling acquisition through organic content, we’ll connect you with digital talent that fits your goals and pace.
Data is embedded in Oxford’s innovation economy. But technical skill alone isn’t enough – you need analysts who can tell a story, influence direction, and help stakeholders make smarter decisions.
We help growing teams hire Data Analysts, Insight Leads, BI Developers, and Data Engineers who combine analytical rigour with strong communication. Whether your team uses Power BI, SQL, Python or Tableau, we’ll help you find people who can turn raw numbers into competitive advantage.
Our clients span SaaS, biotech, healthcare, education and public sector – all united by the need for data-driven decision-making.
Delivery professionals are essential to growth – especially in complex, fast-moving environments. We help companies in Oxford hire Digital Project Managers, Technical PMs, Product Owners, and Agile Delivery Leads who can take ownership, align teams, and deliver measurable outcomes.
Whether you’re managing software sprints, launching a digital product, or delivering transformation programmes, we’ll bring you candidates who can lead with clarity and consistency.
Whether you're a company looking to hire exceptional talent or a candidate ready for your next career move, we're here to support you with tailored staffing solutions that meet your goals.

Recruitment doesn’t need to be chaotic. At Live Digital, we bring clarity, structure and momentum to your hiring - so you can focus on building your business. Here’s how we work with employers in Oxford:
We begin with a detailed hiring consultation – not just to understand the role, but the team, the product, the growth stage, and the bigger picture. This lets us align the search to your long-term goals.
We build a bespoke candidate strategy, combining headhunting, talent mapping, and network referrals. Our candidates are typically off-market – and often not visible to in-house teams.
We don’t flood inboxes. We send curated shortlists with detailed candidate insights – covering motivations, notice periods, strengths, and potential risks. You’ll know exactly why they’re a match.
We manage scheduling, prep, and feedback both ways – keeping momentum high and communication clear. We also help manage counteroffers, notice period risks, and candidate experience.
Once you’ve chosen your ideal hire, we support you through offer negotiations and onboarding. We stay close to both sides post-offer to ensure a smooth, confident transition.
