Permanent Finance Recruitment

Permanent

At Rutherford Cross we recognise that each Finance role is unique and may require different approaches. For example, when a role is confidential, you will need search and selection, but for a newly created role you may want to shout about your brand and opportunity with a full advertising and social media campaign. Whatever the scenario, we support organisations with the best solutions. You can find out more about our permanent services below.

Whether you are a start-up or family-owned business, a public or not for profit organisation, or a large corporate company, we can provide tailored executive search support. Combining powerful search resources with an in-depth consultative approach, we work closely with our clients to understand their organisation’s competitive challenges, business objectives and culture. We see partnership as the key to success, listening and challenging in equal measure to ensure we can deliver an impactful solution.
