Shape your future with the freedom of a start-up and the backing of a market leader.

• No threshold + 22% commission on all billings – earn more from day one, with one of the most transparent and rewarding structures in the market.
• Genuine flexibility – choose how and where you work best, with a culture built on trust, autonomy, and outcomes.
• Be part of something from the ground up – shape the growth of a new London team, backed by an established, award-winning brand.

The Person:

• An experienced Accountancy & Finance recruiter who thrives in a 360 role.
• Ambitious but humble, confident in your abilities, and genuinely care about building something long-term.
• Experience across both interim and perm, or you've specialised in one and are curious to expand.
• Ideally, you've worked across newly qualified to senior finance levels and understand the pace of working with PE-backed businesses or mid-sized C&I firms.
• You've had some consistency in your career and are now ready to help shape a London business you can be proud of.
• Entrepreneurial, collaborative, and excited by the chance to have a real impact from day one.

The Company:

• This is a well-established and highly successful recruitment business with multiple UK offices and a turnover of £1m+ NFI per month.
• They are cash-positive, profitable, and have seen double-digit year-on-year growth in early 2025.
• Their culture is what truly sets them apart—multi-award winning in employee engagement, high retention, and led by a forward-thinking, hands-on leadership team.
• There's no ego, no big-biller special treatment—just a genuine passion for building careers and championing individuals who bring value, energy, and fresh ideas.
• With significant investment in tech, marketing, and operations, and a reputation for delivering on flexible working, this is an opportunity to be part of a build, with the backing of a bigger group behind you.

The Role:

• You'll be joining the early build phase of a new London team, with realistic plans to grow to five heads by the end of 2025—and longer-term ambitions to become a 40–50 strong flagship hub.
• This is a senior-level 360 recruitment role within Accountancy & Finance.
• Working with Commerce & Industry clients, including many PE-backed portfolio companies, recruiting roles from newly qualified through to FC, FD and CFO levels.
• Whether you favour interim/temp or perm, there's space to shape your desk—and, in time, your own team or niche.
• You'll have a high level of autonomy, industry-leading tech, no threshold, and access to a national network of existing client relationships, especially within group finance and executive search.
• Expectations are realistic and with full support behind you to get there.
