Accounting & Finance Recruitment

Tailored hiring in finance: We see the person behind the numbers

Finance professionals are not all the same, and not all finance roles are equal. Finance teams provide the critical thinking at the heart of every business strategy. As one of the UK's most trusted finance & accountancy staffing agencies, we match qualified accounting and finance professionals to the right opportunity, not just any role.

You’ll work with our industry experts, many of whom are ex-finance professionals, to plot the next step that’s right for you. We recruit permanent, contract and fixed-term roles for a wide variety of firms and organisations. From start-ups to FMCG giants, investment banking, insurance, audit to advisory, we hire talent for the most dynamic, and the most prestigious organisations in the UK.
