Following on from my blog entry in the New Year which stated (optimistically!) that early indications of a busy year were strong, fortunately this has proven to be accurate and the interim market within financial services has returned robustly. Although I have been in the recruitment sector for 12 years I posted the best ever performance figures of my career in February.
Retail banking, life and pensions and general insurance are the primary markets leading the charge. I would be especially interested in referrals of interims with Business Analysis, Project Management, Solvency II and Risk experience.
I am responsible for delivering an ambitious business plan to expand the financial services practice this year. I am actively considering launching a new front in our Brightpool business focusing on the Compliance market to assist with issues such as complaints reviews and regulatory investigations. I have also made an offer to a highly experienced individual within Brightpool to help cope with existing demand for contractors from our own interim managers.
My wife gave birth to our third daughter, Rose Elizabeth, 5 weeks ago. It’s been 4 years since we had a last baby so I am currently relearning the art of functioning with sleep deprivation. I am spending a little more time working from our London office at the moment, both to spend valuable time with clients and to ensure I get a good nights sleep!
