Companies in Newcastle, United Kingdom can run their whole hiring process on Pitch N Hire's applicant tracking system — job posting, a branded careers page, resume parsing, interview scheduling, scorecards and team collaboration — with a free-forever plan for one user. It works anywhere on the web, so a Newcastle team can manage local and offshore hiring from one place.
An applicant tracking system (ATS) is the software a team uses to manage hiring end-to-end: posting jobs to boards and a branded careers page, collecting and parsing applications, moving candidates through pipeline stages, scheduling interviews, capturing structured scorecards, and collaborating on decisions. Pitch N Hire's ATS (its 'Operate' product) does all of this in the browser, with a free-forever tier for a single user and paid plans as a team grows. Because it is web-based it serves companies anywhere — a team can run its local recruitment and any offshore hiring from the same system, with reporting on time-to-fill and source performance so the process stays measurable rather than run over email and spreadsheets.
Create roles once and publish to your branded careers page and multiple job boards, so applications flow into one organised pipeline instead of scattered inboxes.
Resumes are parsed and candidates captured automatically, with duplicates merged, so your team starts from a clean, searchable candidate database.
Drag candidates through customisable stages, leave notes, and keep everyone aligned on where each person is — no more spreadsheet status-chasing.
Schedule interviews, share structured scorecards, and gather feedback in one place so hiring decisions are consistent and comparable across interviewers.
Dashboards show time-to-fill, source performance and pipeline conversion, so a team can see what's working and hire more predictably over time.
Pitch N Hire's applicant tracking system covers the full hiring workflow in one place:
Newcastle upon Tyne leads the North East's digital economy, with a hiring market powered by a notable games-studio cluster, growing AI and data-science demand, and a steady flow of graduates from two strong local universities. Sage, the accounting-software company headquartered nearby, and a supportive regional tech network give the city genuine software depth at markedly lower salary levels than London or the South.
Newcastle talent spans games and real-time engineering (Unreal, Unity, C++), full-stack web (JavaScript/TypeScript, .NET, Python) and a rising data and machine-learning contingent. The universities feed a reliable junior-to-mid pipeline, and retention is helped by the region's affordability. Senior specialists in AI or platform engineering can still be scarce, so teams often supplement locally hired staff with offshore engineers.
Newcastle offers strong value: senior developers commonly land around £50k–£75k, appreciably below London for comparable skills, which is a large part of the city's appeal to employers. Offshore augmentation from India can push blended costs lower still while adding seniority, letting North East teams and inbound companies stretch engineering budgets further.
For companies scaling in Newcastle, PNH builds an India-based engineering pod that overlaps well with GMT working hours, vets each hire against the required stack, and manages employment and compliance through its Employer of Record. That combines the city's cost-effective local talent with additional offshore capacity — no UK subsidiary or extra payroll infrastructure needed.
You can engage Pitch N Hire in whichever way fits your Newcastle team's stage and workload — and mix them as you scale:
A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.
You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.
Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.
Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.
Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.
Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.
Staffing and recruitment services, the applicant tracking software, and hiring resources — all in one place.
