How does it work at Finacial Divisions?
As a consultancy, we look after our candidates and offer a bespoke approach which makes us distinctive in today’s market-place.
We are interested in maintaining a long-standing relationship with our candidates and helping them with their career long-term.
Financial Divisions unique mantra is: “The candidate of today is the client of tomorrow”.
You will be assigned one consultant to look after your recruitment needs on the permanent/temporary side of the business; this way we are able to get to know you as a person.
Why you should use Financial Divisions?
It is frustrating when working with an agency if you speak to a different person each time you call who doesn’t know you at all.
We don’t sell skills into a job but a person and to do that one of us needs to have met you, got to know you and come to understand what it is you are looking for.
This allows us to find out:
- The right company, role and working atmosphere for you.
- What type of company do you want to work in
- Where do you want to work?
- Do you have commitments that limit when and where you can work?
- What are your long-term career goals?

We also confirm their eligibility to work in the U.K. Psychometric testing can be offered as part of our service.
