It is also a rare person that takes a call from you late at night to ‘talk’…he takes that call because he cares, is interested and your call is as important to him as it is to you. Sajid has worked with me from my first steps into healthcare and has stayed supporting me in too many roles and projects to mention. He has been instrumental throughout my career. I trust him and can attest that working with Sajid has been one of my deepest pleasures. I regularly thank him for his support, concern and good advice and am grateful for all he has done for me.”

Sajid proved himself to be a highly professional recruiter. I look forward to working with him again in the future. Highly recommended."
