A finance recruitment agency finds, screens, and shortlists finance and accountancy professionals on your behalf.

Instead of spending weeks writing job ads, sifting through applications, and trying to assess qualifications and experience, you brief us on the role and we do the heavy lifting.

We interview every candidate before you see them, so you only meet people who are genuinely qualified and right for the job.

At Coburg Banks, we've been recruiting finance professionals since 2002 - from Finance Assistants and Management Accountants through to Financial Controllers, FDs, and CFOs.

It varies by seniority, but in-house finance recruitment typically takes 8–10 weeks - longer for qualified or senior positions where the talent pool is smaller.

Through Coburg Banks, our average time to hire is 29 days.

We typically have a shortlist of vetted, interviewed candidates with you within a few days of receiving your brief, because we have immediate access to thousands of active and passive finance candidates across every sector.

You can - and for some roles it works. But qualified finance professionals are in high demand, and the best ones are often already in a role and not actively looking.

Job boards tend to attract active jobseekers, which means you're missing a huge pool of talented people who'd move for the right opportunity but won't respond to an ad.

We spend every day building relationships with finance professionals across the UK. We know where to find them and how to have the conversations that get them interested. We've been doing it since 2002.

We'll get back to you within 20 minutes to have a quick chat about your role.

We'll ask about the qualifications, technical skills, and experience you need, the team they'll be joining, and the kind of person who'd thrive in your environment.

Then we get to work.

You'll typically have a shortlist of vetted, interviewed candidates within a few days.

No pressure, no hard sell - if you don't like what we send, there's no obligation to go further.

Yes - we recruit at every level, from part-qualified and newly qualified through to ACCA, CIMA, and ACA-qualified professionals with years of post-qualification experience.

Whether you need a part-qualified Management Accountant or a fully qualified FD, we'll find the right person. We understand the importance of matching not just qualifications but also sector experience and cultural fit.

We cover the full range of finance and accountancy roles — from Finance Assistants, Accounts Payable, and Credit Control through to Management Accountants, Financial Controllers, Finance Business Partners, Commercial Finance Managers, Finance Directors, and CFOs.

We recruit on a permanent and contract basis across all of these.

If your role is particularly specialist, give us a call on 0121 362 2300 and we'll confirm we can help.

It depends on the role. Our fees typically range between 15% and 23% of the candidate's basic salary, depending on seniority and complexity.

We'll give you a clear figure upfront before we start - no surprises, and we won't charge you any more than that amount, even if you have to offer a higher salary to secure your ideal hire.

And remember, you don't pay anything unless we find someone you actually hire.

Not until your new hire starts work. There's nothing to pay upfront, nothing on shortlist, nothing on interview.

Our fee only becomes due once the successful candidate is sat at their desk working for you.

Yes. We operate a replacement and rebate scheme on every placement.

If you have to dismiss a candidate within the first three months, we'll either find you a replacement or refund a proportion of the fee.

It's there to give you complete peace of mind. Give us a call and we'll walk you through exactly how it works.

No problem - there's zero obligation. Sometimes we don't get it exactly right first time, and that's fine.

Just tell us what's missing or what didn't fit, and we'll go back and refine the search.

We'd rather get it right than get it fast.
