About Us

At Albert Bow, we connect talented professionals with the right opportunities, helping businesses grow and careers thrive.

Smart. Sharp. People -First.


We’re a team of specialist recruiters with a passion for tech and trading and we’ve been making powerful connections since 2018.

At our core, we’re all about people. We take the time to truly understand what makes a business tick and what drives top talent. Our consultants aren’t just recruiters they’re deeply embedded in their niche markets, from high-frequency trading and quant research to software engineering and data science.

We know this space moves fast, and so do we. But we never cut corners. We’re all about quality over quantity, long-term relationships over quick wins, and always adding real value whether you're scaling a trading desk or searching for your next big move.

We’re vibrant, down-to-earth, and seriously good at what we do. Fancy a chat? Get in touch we’d love to hear from you.

Meet the people who make everything we do at Albert Bow possible

Craig Trenier

Founder
When founding Albert Bow I had a very clear vision in mind. I wanted to build a recruitment agency that was different to the rest. A recruitment agency both clients and candidates can trust, rely on and enjoy working with. Building Albert Bow with a people first mentality is the basis of everything I wanted to achieve.

DAVID MCGUIGAN

Team Lead | Financial Tech
I am currently working as Head of Backend Technology here at Albert Bow. Finding someone the right role and helping them achieve their goals and potential is something I have brought from my teaching experience and it's a philosophy everyone at Albert Bow adheres to.

SINEAD CLERY

Operations Manager
My career with Albert Bow began in early 2019 when I joined the company as a recruitment consultant. However I quickly found myself drifting towards the Marketing and PR side of the business and before I knew it, my role transitioned into Marketing and Operations Manager.

CHLOE FLETCHER

Team Lead | Technology
I lead the Technology team at Albert Bow, partnering with start-ups and scale-ups in blockchain, fintech & Ai. My role is all about helping founders and executives build the engineering, product, and leadership teams that drive growth. With a background in sport from my time at Loughborough University, I bring resilience, energy, and determination into recruitment. What I enjoy most is connecting brilliant people with opportunities where they can make a real impact.

Ed Langdon

Senior Financial Technology Consultant
I joined Albert Bow on the back of my experience in sales and I am so glad I made the move. The team is a collaboration of likeminded and driven consultants who use longstanding relationships to deliver a second-to-none recruitment service to clients and candidates. The environment and culture fosters hard working people and ultimately, the right people to the right jobs. This is somewhere I want to stay and develop my career.

Callum James

Principal Recruitment Consultant
After returning from the United States, I sought to enter an industry that would tap into my competitive sporting nature. I found that in recruitment, where I now lead the Ai, ML, and Data Engineering division at Albert Bow. With 4 years of experience in both permanent and contract recruitment, I’ve refined my ability to match exceptional talent with the right opportunities.

Luke Davidson

I joined Albert Bow in March 2025, specialising in DevOps and IT Infrastructure recruitment. Based in the Belfast office, I’m passionate about building genuine relationships, understanding career journeys, and connecting people with the right opportunities. Proud to be part of a collaborative, ambitious, and values-driven team.

Zack McCall

Senior Recruitment Consultant
With a background in professional sports, I transitioned into tech recruitment, gaining over 3 years’ experience before joining Albert Bow. I now specialise in Software Development, particularly within the JavaScript ecosystem. I love working with innovative companies alongside a supportive, ambitious team. Outside of work, you'll find me on the rugby pitch or enjoying a pint of Guinness with friends!

James Nicholls

Senior Financial Technology Consultant 
I joined Albert Bow’s trading desk with a solid background in finance recruitment and I’ve never looked back. I thrive in a high-energy, collaborative team that knows how to work hard, move fast, and still have a good laugh along the way. When I’m not busy connecting top talent with cutting-edge trading firms, you’ll probably find me on the hunt for the next must-try food spot in London or going to various music events!

Bobby

Chief Mood Booster
I began my career with Albert Bow basically from the day I was born. I embody Albert Bow's philosophy of valuing long lasting relationships and trying to put a smile on everyone's face.
