Why we do this

Making tech recruitment feel easy and rewarding

With years of experience in this field, we know the tech industry inside out – every pitfall, every challenge and every risk for every party.

We enjoy sharing the advice, guidance and support people need to help them arrive at the result they’re looking for with as little stress as possible.

And we handle the complexities, keep people engaged and ensure both employer and employee feel informed, confident and in control.

How it works

Delivering high-value tech recruitment solutions, reliably and at pace

In the recruitment sector, connections are everything. Because we keep up to date on the stand-out companies and specialists in the region – as well as new technology and new approaches – we know who to call in any situation.

We align a role’s requirements and objectives with an individual’s talents 
and ambitions to ensure both can achieve their full potential. 

Our process for both candidates and employers always begins with a conversation where we get to understand your needs and establish goals. Then, we move quickly through preparation and research before presenting good-fit solutions, arranging interviews and finalising the details.

Want to know more about the process?

It’s not unusual for tech specialists to get pinged multiple times a week by agencies. It’s a testament to Bristow Holland that they don’t get lost in all that noise and maintain respect.
