🚀 Global Tech & AI Recruitment Consultant | Empowering Exceptional Technologists to Achieve Greatness | Passionate about Cultivating World-Class Engineering and AI Teams 💡

Hi, I’m Chris. 

I help engineering leaders solve one of the hardest problems in business: hiring great people fast, without compromising on quality.

Recruitment isn’t about luck or volume. It’s about judgment, knowing when someone’s truly exceptional and when they’re just good in an interview.

For the past seven years, I’ve built engineering teams across the US, UK, Europe, and Asia. I work with trading firms, fintechs, and AI startups where precision matters and talent directly impacts performance.

I’m known for honesty, speed, and a long-term mindset. No shortcuts, no noise, just the right introductions that make a measurable difference.

If you’re building a team that needs to deliver, or you’re an engineer ready for your next big step, let’s talk.

We make no secret of our success; we're proud to be the UK’s number one debt collection agency. We have the highest success rate in the industry thanks to our highly skilled enforcement agents, and we utilise the latest body cam technology to ensure the safety and transparency of everyone involved, especially your debtors. 

We recovered a staggering £12million for our clients in 2020, with an 88% success rate, and all cases actioned within 24 hours.

Who do we work with?

Anyone owed £1k+, whether you’re a corporate company, SME, sole trader, or an individual. Irrespective of your circumstances, you deserve justice, and that’s what we’re here for. 

What can I expect?

We’re a face-to-face debt recovery service; we will track down your debtor and visit them to collect your funds and then return them to you, where they rightfully belong. 

What else do we do?

What our clients say:

“I thought I'd lost my money but then I found Cobra who returned my money within 2 months. They kept me informed the whole way through and I really loved the body cam footage at the premises. It was a very smooth process and I would definitely recommend them if you're in a similar situation”

“I was owed around £25k from bad, abusive tenants. I felt I couldn't cope with all the stress anymore. Then I found Cobra and wow, these guys are top of their game. They recovered all the money owed to me in a very short time. They were easy to deal with, very honest, and effective. If you're struggling with bad tenants, I would definitely recommend Cobra Financial”

This isn’t just a job to the team here; it’s a passion. Being owed money is a highly stressful experience, especially for the vulnerable members of the community that we are often asked to help. Exceptional results and customer experience is paramount to us, which is why we have a 5* Trustpilot rating.

Absolutely buzzing that we today managed to resolve a long overdue debt for Abby Brend this lady had so many sleepless nights over Christmas with not being paid. 

Money in her Bank and no doubt the best sleep she has had for a while.

Only 24 hours ago we was instructed by our client Paul Dove to recover a 21k debt outstanding for over 12 months, client had enough off lies and being ignored.

Debtor visited today and payment off £1500 made, balance secured all done within 24 hours 💥 💰

Face to Face debt really does catch these buggers out.

Another day another success for our client

As we always say paying debtors surprise early morning visits is always more effective than sending letters and emails.

Commercial rental arrears 🏠 
Amount collected £5358.50 💰

🚨 BAD DEBTOR ALERT 🚨

Acumen Fieldwork Ltd
Acumen Fieldwork 
Amount £10924.30.
Area Salford 
Abi Fuller 
Julie Fuller  fmrs 
Lydia Fuller 

2nd visit made this morning and they would not open the door they seem to think it’s acceptable to not pay for their recruitment fees and to put the client through 12 months off misery.

We spent half hour in their offices last week and believed this would be resolved but the 3 family members who own the business clearly are just laughing at this situation.

Can’t wait to tell my client Elizabeth Whitfield-Smith off EWS Logostics ltd that following this mornings visit to debtor we have resolved the debt that she was being ignored on for nearly 2 years. 💰 💥 

We happy to work with all debtors but when ye ye tell us they going to make payment “in 24 hours” you can bet your life if that money don’t lane we will be back out there the next morning.

Most debtors who owe money just simply have no respect and because there is no respect there is no motivation to want to pay it’s time to stop debtors laughing at you and get paid !!!!!
