What I recruit for
One niche, done properly. I only recruit 5-axis CNC and CAM specialists, so I know what good looks like before I send you a CV.
Permanent 5-axis CNC and CAM programmers
Programmers who can take a part from a CAD model to a proven, efficient program on Mastercam, hyperMILL, PowerMill and similar systems.
Permanent CNC setters and setter operators
Multi-axis and 5-axis setters who can prove out a job, hold tolerance and keep your spindles running.
Confidential moves for CNC professionals
If you program or set 5-axis machines in South Yorkshire, I’ll tell you honestly what you’re worth and only put you forward for roles you’ve agreed to.

Why Hidaya
I don’t recruit for everyone. I recruit 5-axis CNC and CAM specialists in the Greater Sheffield Area, and nothing else.
That means fewer CVs in your inbox and better ones, from someone who knows the difference between a setter who loads programs and one who proves them out.
