I have used EquityFD twice recently to source Finance Directors into investments and they have delivered on both occasions. Their focus allows them to run a full and swift process and pinpoint exactly the right mixture of skills for the roles.

EquityFD were recommended to me when I needed to source a new COO for the business where I am CEO. They were determined in their approach and immediately engaged fully with the brief. They have delivered an excellent right hand man to work with me who has already made a great impact.

I needed to recruit a team of senior, experienced finance interims and turned to EquityFD/EquityFC having recently arrived into a new business.They identified a great selection of candidates at speed and I was able to move to hiring within a few days. This significantly increased the speed with which I was able to take control and drive change whilst creating time to effect permanent recruitments – one of whom went temp to perm from the original appointments.

As a chairman of both management-owned and private equity backed businesses when we are looking for a Finance Director I go straight to Equity FD because they always propose outstanding candidates on brief. They have consistently provided people we have hired who have been a success.

I found the team at Equity FD to be a refreshing change in the grizzled, cynical world of executive recruitment.

In my opinion, Sarah Hunt and Joanna Adolph are a pair of inveterate enthusiasts who cleverly match the demands of their client with their pool of executives. They listened carefully to my expectations of any potential position and did not waste time with opportunities that did not fit that brief. They had a happy knack of making me feel they were on my side and, no doubt, managed to give the same impression to their client! Having established my criteria, Joanna’s keenness to sell to me what she saw as the perfect match was infectious and appears to be fully justified. Well done!
