Bio
Alpesh Patel
Matt’s style of recruiting is second to none. Moving to the UK on 2-year visa, Matt was able to get me my first job within a few short weeks. No mucking around, just quick and efficient in finding the best role for me. When my visa was ending, I wanted to stay in the UK for a few more years, and Matt was my first port of call. Even though it was at the height of the pandemic when the industry was on a down turn, Matt was able to secure two interviews for me with potential employers - one in which hired and sponsored me to stay in the UK for another 2 years. I cannot recommend Matt enough, without him I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to stay in the UK for as long as I did. If I ever decide to go back to London, Matt will be my first call without a doubt.

Matt does his research properly and knows what projects are current or in the pipeline and which consultancies either have the work or are likely to. Matt is a personable bloke who knows a lot of key people throughout the industry, in the engineering game this is a highly important attribute. I used Matt’s recruitment services in 2012 when moving from Australia to the UK. For myself, Matt delivered. A quick discussion of rate, role, project type, team & location was soon followed by an interview within a mining engineering design team that met all expectations. I’d highly recommend Matt/ Amida for recruitment services both for prospective employees or employers.
