Public Practice

The public practice market is a jungle! It’s not a statement you might expect to read but the war for talent and the demand for it makes it so.

Whether you are considering leading national firms, strong regional powerhouses, or independent boutiques, we have a team of public practice accounting recruiters who not only have an enviable network to engage with but also the experience to make your job search as positive and enjoyable as possible.

By continually networking within our finance network, with the sole purpose of keeping abreast of emerging trends and current or pending opportunities, we can connect your talent with the right firm for you.

Commerce & Industry

Not limited by geography, sector or level, the commercial finance team is instructed on some of the best opportunities in the market across a variety of industries. The majority we receive are on an exclusive basis so we can help you and the hiring manager best navigate the recruitment process.

We don’t over commit and we don’t over promise. Our specialist accountancy recruitment team works on quality and not quantity.

With the introduction of widely adopted flexible working patterns, the number of available opportunities will naturally increase but so does the competition in terms of candidate numbers available for each role but with over 50 years worth of recruitment experience within the commercial finance team, we truly mean it when we say, you’re in safe hands!

Trusted by our Clients

See some of our reviews by our wonderful clients!

David took the time to understand our organisation and our culture.  He nailed this so when he presented us with the long list we were stunned at the ‘fit’ between candidates and our hopes for the type of person we would go on to appoint.  Several high-calibre candidates could have fitted into the business.

David was absolutely brilliant. He took a measured and considered approach. Really listening to what our needs were, rather than just trying to fit a potential candidate (square peg) into our requirements (round hole).
