Recruitment for public practice

Finding senior accountants who fit the practice, not just the job description

Technical ability matters, but senior accountancy appointments also depend on client-handling skills, portfolio experience, software knowledge, leadership style and long-term ambitions.

We take time to understand the vacancy and only introduce candidates whose experience and expectations appear relevant.
