We understand the fabric of financial markets and the intricate nature of the relationships that exist within it. This helps us to provide employers and candidates with the direction they need when making important career decisions.

Industry dynamics are important too, so whether you are hiring someone into your own team or looking for a new job yourself, we appreciate how risky an interview process can be. Afterall, the cost of hiring the wrong person, or accepting the wrong job offer is significant for all parties.

Reputations are also critical to everyone we deal with, and it is a key part of our role to enhance these by challenging any of preconceived notions which may exist about either companies or candidates. By selling candidate attributes consistently and fairly on merit, and by challenging company perceptions, it helps either party enormously, enabling them to make decisions based on reality rather than here say.

We believe in speed, discretion and in the importance of detail. Everyone has a different set of circumstances which are listened to intently, so whatever your background, you will find us to be intelligent and well informed.

Worldwide industry experience and knowledge

Our reputation and reach are truly global. In the past two years alone outside of the UK and the US, we have placed candidates in Malaysia, India, Singapore, Netherlands, Brazil, Russia, Spain, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Australia and Lithuania. 

This means we are also very well placed to advise candidates on international relocations, which in many instances includes advice on where to live, cost of living, and local market salaries. Similarly, we spend a considerable amount of time identifying for our clients in the UK and US, many candidates who are wishing to return home from overseas.

Our expertise

Working with our candidates

Most of the candidates we represent are referred to us. This is not because we place everyone we meet, but is instead because of our style and approach, which we are confident you will find honest and forthright. 

Of course, we spend much of our time sourcing and placing candidates in existing roles, however we are also committed to proactively sourcing opportunities for candidates through discrete, albeit targeted approaches on your behalf.

We have built a strong reputation working with some of the world's most recognisable financial institutions, which has helped us create formidable relationships, and allows us to identify tremendous career opportunities for our candidates.

We also appreciate the frustrations experienced by some during their job search, whether it is lack of response, poorly managed expectations, or a tardy approach. From the moment you apply for a new position we will keep you informed at every stage and ensure your placement process is a seamless as possible.

Working with our clients

Our success is built by partnering with an exceptional client base to create the best opportunities for the best talent available.

We also understand the need to be thorough which encourages us to ask tough but pertinent questions to properly ascertain your needs, and it often requires us to read between the lines and trust our intuition. Either way, we take pride in our work and take care in selecting the opportunities that play to our strengths.

Employers can face many frustrations during the recruitment process in addition to their everyday budgetary and time constraints. The commercial impact of hiring the wrong person can be enormous which makes it even more important to grasp opportunities as they arise.

Our Consultants possess the market knowledge to work on assignments across any product type, discipline or asset class, and have the experience to guide you through the entire recruitment process.
