When building project teams, I often need to reach out to expert recruiters who know the market and have a large network. Manoj and I go back a few years now, and he is my go-to point when it comes to financial services, especially in London. With a huge network, great understanding of the market and a very personable approach, I recommend Manoj to anyone who needs a rockstar recruiter up their sleeve, will use his services always.

Singletrack – Head of Client success
When we started partnering with Haley Bridge he spent quite some time getting to know the company, our culture and ambition as he, as well as we, believe that cultural fit of candidates is as important as subject knowledge and experience. Unlike other agencies I worked with over the last years, I absolutely know that Nihal will only present candidates who match our requirements in those and other areas discussed for the various roles we have within the team.
We are a dynamic team at Singletrack and as a result, the CS team and roles at Singletrack are constantly changing and evolving, and consequently so are the job roles we are hiring for. Nihal has been actively supporting this change by fully understanding the requirements for each job role, constantly re-evaluating the match between candidates and job role requirements and taking appropriate action. The outcome typically is that Nihal is able to very quickly present well-vetted candidates.
Nihal is making a very difficult job appear easy and almost relaxed, even though I know how much work and time has to be invested by him in the first place.
Expanding a work unit in numbers is what most recruiters can do, but growing a team into a homogenous, highly functional, flexible team is something I don’t think we could not have achieved without him.

I’ve had the pleasure speaking with Manoj at Haley Bridge who is passionate in finding the right candidate to fill for prominent tech roles. I’ve worked with different firms like this previously, but this one sticks out to me in particular due to its flexibility and honesty. People and technology change all the time, and this is the right group of folk you’d want to continue holding relationships with. If you’re seeking a new techy career opportunity, this is the place to go.

I have dealt with many, many recruiters over the years, both as a hiring manager and as a candidate. Nihal at Haley Bridge stands out from many of these because of his exemplary professionalism, extensive knowledge of the industry and genuine care for the well-being of those that he is placing. His approach is genuinely refreshing as he really is about finding the right fit for both candidate and firm. I would whole heartedly recommend him and this firm to those that are looking for their next role and indeed any companies looking for a recruitment firm who want excellence and great service; a service that is often very different from what is available out there. It’s very apparent that Nihal genuinely cares about his work, candidates and what is best for both the firm’s and the candidates he represents.

He is honest, passionate and dedicated towards his work. I would highly recommend Haley Bridge to candidates and companies.
Thanks again !

I’ve known Haley Bridge for several years and was very happy to take a call from them about an interesting role recently. Every stage of the process was handled professionally. Manoj helped me prepare for some of the interviews which was a great help. With his assistance and encouragement I managed to secure the role
Manoj clearly knows the Devops field well and that experience helps him find the right candidates to match the roles he is recruiting for. This benefits both parties, and ensures that interviews meet expectations and his clients’ time is not wasted by poorly suited candidates.
I can recommend Haley Bridge highly to any clients or candidates especially in the Devops field.

I worked with Haley bridge for a potential role, and my experience all the way through has been nothing but brilliant!
They don’t just reaches out to potential candidates with a client specific job spec but is open to hear the requirements from the candidates as well.
Haley Bridge helped me find a suitable role, kept me posted throughout the process. They are very professional and I would be more than happy to recommend and to work with him in future..
Thank you HaleyBridge

Haley Bridge helped me finding my current role at Genesis. I was quite impressed by how he explained the company and the role to me in detail. Even after our initial conversation I was able to picture myself working for Genesis. He was also supportive during the interview stages and provided all the details I needed to succeed. Nihal is a recruiter who honestly cares about his candidates and as well as his clients. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who is seeking a new job or who is looking to hire talent.

When making my last career move, Oct-15, I dealt with Manoj. He was extremely knowledgeable of both the role and the company and took the time to develop a strong working relationship with me – one that we continue to have today. His approach to explaining the role and ensuring this aligned with my own career aspirations was both refreshing and ultimately successful for both of us. I have no hesitation in recommending Manoj, he is an excellent and very professional recruiter. I wish him every success in the next step of his own career journey.
Sarah Chime

Nihal is extremely professional and highly effective in his approach to recruitment. Nihal stands out from other recruiters because he is very quickly able to identify a skills-match between the candidate and the prospective job role. He does this very naturally and accurately, which creates and frictionless application process for the candidate. Many other recruiters often try to ‘force a square peg into a round hole’ which is not an ideal approach. For this reason, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Nihal. He looks out for both the candidate and the prospective employer. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a new role and want to thank him again for the most seamless & enjoyable recruitment process I’ve experienced.

I have known Manoj as a recruiter for over ten years and found him to a true professional. I like his approach he spends time to understand the requirement, then checks his understanding of the requirement before going in to ‘hunt’ mode. He usually finds high quality candidates for me. I would recommend him to anyone as a recruiter.
Samir Patki
Head Of QA at European Central Counterparty
Manoj is one of the sensible recruiters I have come across. He has very good understanding of the exchange & clearing technology (that’s how I met him), he takes time to understand the organisation, culture and has always provided top suitable candidates. During the hiring process, keeps you up to date with the progress. He is simple, friendly & no nonsense individual. I highly recommend him.

I would not hesitate in recommending Nihal and Haley Bridge in representing you on your next placement. Haley Bridge stand out for their level of professionalism, knowledge and insight into the company, the process and more importantly their honest and personable approach. The whole process felt very personal, straight forward and transparent with lots of great advice along the way. Nihal genuinely cares about the people he places and wants the best for both you as a candidate and the hiring company, to ensure the best possible fit – you really are more than just another applicant when you have the support of Haley Bridge representing you.

I have known Manoj for almost as long as I’ve been working in the City. His firm has helped me find a role a couple of times and I also worked with him when I myself needed to find candidates. In my opinion, Manoj is one a very few true professionals in this field, who really understands the recruitment business like no one else and who has a vast network of connections, built and nurtured over the years. Whenever I find myself looking for a move, I know exactly who to call first. And trust me: you’ll be well advised to do the same.
