Hi, I’m Pratap
I am an experienced Senior Technology Recruiter specialising in Cyber Security, Cloud and Architecture, connecting forward-thinking Technology Consulting businesses and Specialty Insurance firms across the UK and Europe with the best talent to support their strategic growth and commercial success.
With a particular focus on building communities of hard-to-find talent, roles I recruit for include:
- Enterprise Security Architects/Consultants
- Senior Cloud Security Consultants
- Cloud Migration Consultants
- Technical Directors – Cloud
- Heads of Security/CISO
As Head of the Contract Division at Pioneer Search, I connect clients with high-quality, fast, and flexible interim talent, helping them deliver complex projects and navigate change.
My Background
I am a Senior Technology Recruiter with over 17 years of industry experience. My career has focused on Infrastructure, Security, and Cloud, with a strong foundation in consultancy, which has helped me become a trusted expert and communicate effectively with a wide range of clients in an ever-changing industry.
As a hands-on Recruiter, my focus is on senior appointments across Security and Architecture through to Management/Director level.
I graduated from Brunel University in 2008 and majored in the Business and Globalisation of Sport (Totally related to Recruitment!) I also took on a module for Psychology in Sports Coaching. I was a very keen cricketer and played to youth county level until the unescapable lure of Beer and partying at University put a stop to that!
Why I joined Pioneer
I joined pioneer for the very simple fact that it was a grown up/adult environment at a point in my career where I wanted the opportunity to develop further skills including management and leadership. What was very apparent was the clear direction that Mark wanted to take Pioneer. It is a very honest and collaborative environment which was attractive to me. Nearly 6 years on, it certainly is the opportunity and environment that was sold to me!
Outside of work
Outside of work I spend a lot of time with family and friends and enjoy experiencing good food and wine.
