Strategy

Finding a Controller with strong business acumen and a desire to join a dynamic enterprise is no easy task. There are a lot of accountants out there and it is often tempting to adopt the 'one-size fits all' approach. We understand that this can be a limiting factor when recruiting for an entrepreneurial company (particularly one that has some degree of leverage and /or private equity backed) and our approach is specifically focused on seeking out only those Controllers who want the higher profile, higher risk roles.

Many of our people have worked within both blue-chip organisations as well as SMEs and so come with the benefit of 'big company, best practice' experience coupled with an understanding of the requirements of a hands-on role within an entrepreneurial company. Many have had experience of equity and debt financing structures and an exit driven agenda.

Our approach

Each assignment is a 'one-off' and therefore our approach is all about understanding the individual needs of a company and acting quickly and efficiently to find a solution. We look to manage the entire recruitment process from first stage through to offer and acceptance. Our focus ensures that our network of candidates, provides the right type of individual whatever the sector or location of the role whether in the UK or overseas.

If you specifically seek an interim solution then we have a dedicated resource focussed on your requirement, Equity Interim. Please call Robert Draper on 020 7493 2703 or email robertdraper@equityinterim.com

Attracting the right candidates

Should advertising be appropriate, our brand and experience gives us a distinct edge in attracting candidates with the right characteristics;it is rare that anyone responds to an EquityFC advertisement without having considered further the type of opportunities we deal with.
