Banking
Who we areOliver James Associates is an established search and selection consultancy operating exclusively within the financial services industry since 2002.
Our business was initially built as the chosen recruitment partner for a large proportion of the Insurance and Asset Management industries. In 2011, we launched our Banking team in response to two mainareas of weakness in financial services recruitment:
Most recruiters have contractual preferred supplier relationships in place across the majority of major banks, and therefore have no ability to market map & pro-actively source talented individuals.
There is a supply gap between the reach of the top-end of most contingency recruitment firms and the bottom-end of most search firms – this gap results in poor quality of service being delivered in the £75-150k salary range.
Oliver James Associates satisfy these needs by:
Building long-term relationships with a handful of banks, and ring-fencing the rest of the market as source clients where we spend time mapping relevant teams.
Through an experienced and talented research team we reach out to build relationships with high calibre individuals who are not actively looking for a new role, but are receptive to being presented with their next logical career step.
We treat each instruction as an individual project, and apply search methodology to sourcing a high quality shortlist for roles in the mid-senior level.
Our Strength
Our Locations
Our determination to develop long-term relationships based on trust, integrity and successful delivery has culminated in an unrivalled, highly efficient and far-reaching network of mid-to-senior level professionals from within both industry and consultancy environments.
From our offices in London, Manchester, Dublin, Zurich and Hong Kong we cover the UK, Ireland, Continental Europe and Asia Pacific regions.
Specialist Approach
Oliver James Associates have a specialist approach to financial services recruitment. We are struc-tured in teams that focus on building relationships within niche areas, allowing us to have a detailed knowledge of the technical requirements and through well developed networks offer our clients and candidates in-depth market intelligence regarding recruitment solutions.
Our Corporate Governance markets include: Compliance; Internal Audit; Risk Management; Quants; Business Analysis / Change / Project Management. Within these markets we have specialist Consul-tants and Researchers working exclusively with mid-senior level professionals.
While most agencies see the Quant space as an extension of IT or Risk, we understand the true value of the rocket scientists in the banking world. With a dedicated team covering the Quantita-tive Finance market, we provide a deep technical understanding of the requirements allowing us to source the very best active and passive candidates in the market.
Our team have placed at Global Head through to Associate level, and PhD candidates looking for their first step on the Quant ladder.
We endeavour to truly immerse ourselves in all aspects of quantitative analytics, strategy and trading to provide a true consultancy service to our clients and candidates.
From front office Quantitative Modellers and Quant Traders running their own P&L’s, through to Model Validation and Quantitative Risk, our specialist team understands the technical specications that many recruiters will simply search for in words on a CV.
