London, Greater London, United Kingdom Maiden Marc Associates Full time

Maiden Marc Associates are working with a leading retained executive search boutique with offices in London and New York to find several Associate and Senior Associate-level profiles to join their industry-leading Financial and Professional Services teams.

Focusing on operationally and strategically essential roles globally, the business has a long track record of finding CEOs, direct reports to the board and leaders of critical revenue-generating front-office functions within Finance Services, including a client base spanning leading Hedge Funds, Banks and Asset/Wealth Managers.

Working directly under and learning from a hands-on Partner, the right individual for the role will help execute search mandates from day one. As you develop further in your career, you will be encouraged to build your network in the market, manage senior professionals as a trusted advisor and develop into a fee-generating Principal, allowing you to take responsibility for a revenue area of your own.

Core role objectives include:

  • The ability to identify, reference, and proactively reach out and assess candidates for active mandates and core clients
  • Create detail-oriented forensic competitor analysis, strategic overviews, bespoke market benchmarking and product intelligence reports, referencing and profiling market leaders in the Financial Services
  • Executing on search mandates, focusing on candidate management and client delivery, while working closely with the Partners on closing candidates and developing further working relationships with clients
  • Owning pre-pitch/origination research and due diligence responsibilities

The firm is two years into a strategic 5-year growth plan and is looking for Associate and Senior Associate level talent to become future consultants and leaders to help drive this growth.

All high-performing Associates will be genuinely able to impact and grow with the firm - something they can demonstrate through their current outstanding track record of developing talent through the business.

They are looking for someone who ideally has the following:

  • 12 months to six years experience, preferably within a search or headhunting environment, though they would consider a high-performing contingent recruiter looking for a move to retained search or someone coming from a relevant professional services background
  • Worked on executive search mandates, market research projects or has the drive to take on this type of detail-oriented role moving forward
  • Excellent academic credentials with a degree or postgraduate qualification are highly sought-after, alongside exemplary writing skills and a high level of attention to detail
  • A mature but driven personality that enjoys problem-solving, is motivated to deliver high-quality work, and has a natural drive to overachieve

Salary banding for the role depends on experience. It starts from £38,000 for the junior end of the pool and rises based on background and delivery track record to £80,000+ for more experienced Principal-level candidates.

They also offer an industry-leading total compensation package (discretionary performance-driven bonus) alongside opportunities for internal growth, real hands-on mentorship, development from experienced senior leadership, and a route to relocation to their New York office.
