For over 40 years, Thesis Asset Management has been providing investment management services for private clients, charities, pension funds and trusts. Facing a mix of hiring needs across both permenent and contract recruitment, the firm was seeking senior talent in Compliance, MLRO, Fund Accounting, Reporting, and Oversight.

One of the most significant milestones was its very first contract hire; a senior appointment reporting directly to the CEO. Having never hired a contractor before, the firm needed guidance through the process, from understanding regulatory requirements to ensuring full compliance.

Broadgate’s consultants provided the education piece, building confidence and delivering a smooth process that resulted in a successful SMF placement. The candidate made such an impact that she was later transferred into a permanent role.
