Sachin established Camino Group in 2012, having spotted a niche in the recruitment sector which seeks to support other recruitment companies&rsquo; needs by searching and placing non-sales talent -supporting staff- within their operations.
Following a highly successful period of growth, which encompassed the opening of Camino Search, a now-global headhunting consultancy, Sachin is CEO for both operations, where he is passionate about enabling the Camino Group vision to &ldquo;leave a positive legacy within the industry by positively impacting colleagues&rsquo;, clients&rsquo; and candidates&rsquo; lives&rdquo;.

In 2011, myself and two business partners discovered a gap in the market for a company to specialise in placing finance roles exclusively within the recruitment sector, and so Camino Partners was born at the start of 2012. Following a successful beginning and increasing demand from clients, I played a lead role in expanding our service offering to the recruitment of all back-office to boardroom level professionals.
This puts me in a unique position of both running a successful and growing recruitment business, but also working with hundreds of staffing firms in hiring leadership talent to grow theirs.
In my current position, I set up and lead our USA brand - Cavana Search.
Cavana Search specialises in placing staffing and sales roles in the staffing sector across the United States.
I am driven to succeed and provide the most effective recruitment experience our clients can envisage. The recruitment process is a trusted partnership and both recruiter and client should work with honesty and integrity. I have found that this approach has allowed Camino to partner with our clients, enabling them to build high performing teams.
I live by the motto that today&rsquo;s candidate is tomorrow&rsquo;s client. I spend the time with all candidates to understand their motivations, advise them on the market and their options and ultimately to ensure that they will fit culturally within our clients.
I like to know all the best people within the staffing industry, I&rsquo;m an avid networker and appreciate the value of extensive and long-term relationships.
If you&rsquo;re a staffing firm business owner looking to hire recruitment or sales talent for your team, or you&rsquo;re interested in pursuing a career in the sector or alternatively would like advice or to network, please get in touch.

I have been working within the recruitment sector for nearly 3 years now, and joined the industry with hopes to become a specialist within my market and niche.
​When joining the business I stared working as a specialist consultant on the Legal and Compliance desk of which I scaled and grew into a highly successful recruitment operation - and placed over 50 Unsung Heroes in this sector across the recruitment sector with some of our top clients.In August I decided to take the sidestep into heading up our Marketing into Recruitment desk, specialising in recruiting marketing and communications professionals.
​I cover all areas of marketing placements from entry level admin up to CMO and Director of Commercial Marketing also.

I specialise in recruiting the unsung heroes in recruitment, working in the legal and compliance sectors.&nbsp;Before joining Camino Partners I previously established a career in tech sales in Manchester.
I then moved down to London and joined Camino Partners, having completed the internal training academy programme with the business in 2023.&nbsp;I place anyone from a compliance administrator up to legal counsel into other recruitment recruitment companies.
My favourite thing about being a recruiter is the relationships I am able to build with people.Truly understanding what a candidate is looking for in their next role and being there to support them in their career feels great.

​I&rsquo;m now working to support the recruitment sector itself with finding top talent for learning and development and support functions in other recruitment companies.&nbsp;I am part of Camino Partners, specialising in supporting recruitment businesses and executive search firms to find top talent across the Learning and Development space.
​What I really enjoy most about leading the L&amp;D desk at Camino, is the difference I can make to so many recruiters&rsquo; skillset and abilities by placing top level trainers into their businesses.&nbsp;These people can add trememdous value to help recruiters towards becoming exceptional recruiters in their industries..

I have been working in recruitment for just over a year and a half, after moving from Scotland to start my next chapter in London.
​I personally specialise in placing entry level to senior level finance professionals exclusively into the recruitment sector.
​When starting at Camino Partners I was placing FDs and CFOs and now work with all levels of finance and accountancy up to junior Finance Director.
​Some of my most recent placements have consisted of Management Accountants, Payroll Administrators, Financial Controllers, Finance Managers and Data Analysts.&nbsp;What I enjoy most about supporting other recruitment companies is being able to provide the businesses with the right candidates to support them through periods of growth and playing a key part in helping them achieve their overall business goals.
