About Us

The role is with a privately owned, self-financed specialist recruitment consultancy with an outstanding reputation built over many years at the heart of the London market.

  • Taking detailed role briefs and providing informed advice on market conditions, candidate availability, and remuneration benchmarking
  • Proactively sourcing, engaging, and qualifying finance professionals at all levels
  • Managing end-to-end recruitment processes from initial search through to offer, negotiation, and onboarding
  • Building your personal profile and our brand as a trusted specialist in the market
  • Contributing to a high-performing, collaborative team culture

The Roles You'll Place

You'll be working across a broad mandate of senior and specialist finance appointments, including:

Leadership & Director Level Chief Financial Officer · Group Finance Director · Director of Financial Control · Director of FP&A · Director of Group Reporting · Head of Shared Services · Director of M&A · Head of Business Partnering · Director of Commercial Finance

Qualified Finance Commercial Finance Analyst · Management Accountant · Financial Accountant · Group Accountant · Finance Manager · Finance Business Partner · Finance Analyst · Technical Accountant · Group Reporting Manager

What they're Looking For

  • A minimum of 3 years' experience in a recruitment consultancy environment
  • Prior experience in accountancy & finance, professional services, or a closely adjacent sector is strongly preferred
  • A proven track record of developing new business alongside managing established client accounts
  • Strong communication, influencing, and negotiation skills
  • Self-motivated and commercially driven, with a genuine hunger to build and bill
  • Able to operate with pace and precision in a competitive market
  • A collaborative mindset — someone who raises the standard of those around them

What's on Offer

  • Competitive base salary commensurate with experience (up to £40k DOE)
  • Uncapped commission — one of the most competitive structures in the London market
  • A warm desk with existing client relationships and live mandates from day one
  • Hybrid working with a central London office base
  • Clear and transparent career progression, including a Partner track for top performers
  • Ongoing professional development, market intelligence support, and a strong research function
  • A genuinely supportive, high-performance culture where ambition is recognised and rewarded
