Meeting the Unique Demands of Fintech Executive Search in the UK
At Hanover, we offer financial services expertise and a personalised approach. Our executive search process is tailored to your specific operations and goals — we work with you to uncover top talent based on what we learn during initial needs assessments. Additionally, we understand the unique demands of the UK market and work within it to find effective leaders. Here are a few ways we stand out.
Navigating Complexity With Confidence
Firms operating in London and across the UK must abide by regulations like those from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). We help find leaders who are well-versed in existing rules and ready to adapt to new ones that may impact the organisation.
Understanding Your Market, Inside Out
The UK fintech market blends startups and established players. Our deep roots in the London and UK fintech environment provide us with access to both rising talent and the latest industry trends. We search for leaders who can help companies scale quickly and source effective talent, even in a tight labour market.
Building Expertise Into Every Placement
Fintech blends traditional financial services with a forward-thinking approach to technology. We connect you with experienced leaders who have future-focused perspectives.
Attracting Bold Leaders to High-Growth Roles
Unlike other financial industries, fintech has a higher level of risk. We identify leaders who can manage these risks while innovating new products, services and business models.
Accessing Talent Others Miss
Our fintech executive search consultants work within your industry and beyond. We often find leaders within traditional professional services willing to take on the more dynamic world of fintech.
