Finance & Accounting Recruitment

Corporate finance functions across commerce and industry, from qualified accountant to chief financial officer.

Practice overview

This practice covers finance teams in commerce and industry: consumer and retail, manufacturing, logistics, technology, healthcare, property and professional services. Finance roles inside banks, funds and insurers sit within our Financial Services practice, where the technical requirements are different.

Most briefs need a mix of technical accounting depth and commercial instinct. We establish which the role genuinely requires before we start, because the two profiles rarely overlap.
