Partner Appointments

For Partner-level appointments we work on a retained basis. You engage us exclusively. We conduct a thorough market search, approach candidates who may not be actively looking, and manage the process from briefing to placement.

We work the search until it is filled, however long that takes.

Senior to Director Hires

For Senior to Director appointments we work on a contingency basis. You pay on successful placement. Where we are engaged exclusively, we make an unconditional commitment to fill the role, however long it takes and however hard the search proves to be.

We do not deprioritise difficult roles. Exclusive engagement is how we do our best work, and it is the model we will always work towards with clients.

How a search with us works.

Five stages. No corners cut. No surprises at offer stage.

Briefing

We spend time understanding the role, the team, the culture and what success looks like.

Market Mapping

We identify the relevant talent pool in your region, including people who are not actively looking.

Approach & Assessment

We approach candidates using a variety of methods to ensure we hear back from as many relevant people as possible, and assess them properly before presenting them to you. We will also feed back anything relevant to your employer brand.

Process Management

We manage salary expectations, cultural fit and communication throughout. No surprises at offer stage.

Placement & Beyond

We support the offer process and follow up after the placement starts. The relationship does not end at signing.

What we bring to every search.

Inside Knowledge

Eight years recruiting from within accountancy practices. We know the firms, the culture and what genuinely makes a placement work.

Transparency

We tell you what the market looks like, what the search will realistically involve, and where we are at every stage.

Regional Depth

South West, Midlands, South Wales. Three markets we know in genuine depth, not three markets we cover from a central database.

Planning a hire?

We would welcome an initial conversation. No commitment, no pitch. Just a useful discussion about what the market looks like and whether we are the right fit for the search.
