How we work

Having been involved in compliance since 1988, and previously worked as Compliance Practitioners, we are well placed to advise if required as to how much experience you should be seeking for the level of responsibility of the position, or conversely what level of experience and/or qualification you can expect to recruit for a given budget (even if you haven't written a formal specification yet, please don't hesitate to contact us as we are perfectly able to operate without one or assist you in preparing one if required).

Then having identified the candidates by verifying their level of experience, qualifications, and salary expectations are appropriate, we thoroughly interview them, using our own backgrounds to ensure the following criteria are met:

 Their technical understanding is satisfactory for the level required (we can also assist in technical interviewing of internal candidates if requested)
 
 Their personality is suited to the culture and size of the firm as well as the role
 
 The CV contains only accurate content and dates and neither overstates nor omits their relevant experience or product/technical knowledge

START-UP COMPANIES

 

As compliance practitioners, we are very experienced in helping new companies set up under FCA (including PSR) Regulations and both sponsor and work closely with the FCA-supported Association of Professional Compliance Consultants which gives us a good understanding of current FCA processes regarding authorisations. Also, our MD has previously worked as a Compliance Consultant directly helping firms authorise and recently advising others, including acting as an NED for one. NB As above can write the job specification and advise on the candidate specification needed to ensure will meet FCA approval (including part-time) and likely salary ranges.

We can source candidates from and into any of the major continents – and have done successfully in North and South America, Africa, Australia, Asia (including the Middle East, India and Far East) as well as across Europe. We are adept at negotiating packages in different currencies and considering and discussing the complexities involved including the differences in tax, general cost of living and specific issues (e.g. cost of accommodation in desirable areas, education allowances etc.).
