How we help you hire financial and business analysts

Bringing the right analyst into your team requires more than matching technical skills. We look closely at communication style, business partnering experience, and the ability to turn numbers into clear, actionable recommendations. Here’s how we work with you:

Connect

We begin by learning about your business model, reporting needs, planning cycles, and the type of stakeholders your new analyst will support. We want to understand how decisions are made, where the pressure points sit, which systems you rely on, and what good looks like in your environment so we can match you with someone who can operate effectively from the outset.

Select and screen

Our network includes analysts with diverse industry experience and strengths across modelling, business partnering, and commercial analysis. We take the time to assess both technical capability and the way they approach problem solving and stakeholder management.

Hire with confidence

We coordinate interviews, provide insight into each candidate’s strengths, and guide you through the decision-making process. Once the hire is made, we check in regularly to ensure the placement is working well for both you and the new team member.
