Commercial

Broadgate specialises in Commercial Recruitment for fund services, FinTech, private markets and digital assets businesses across Europe and North America. We help organisations hire commercial leaders and revenue-generating professionals who shape financial services.

Commercial growth across financial services has evolved to a point where firms are no longer selling standalone services. They’re delivering integrated technology, data and operational solutions to an increasingly sophisticated asset management market.

Broadgate partners with fund services, FinTech, private markets and digital assets businesses to recruit the commercial professionals behind that growth. From Chief Commercial Officers and Business Development leaders to Client Services and Relationship Management specialists, we help organisations build teams that can create sustainable commercial value.

Our Commercial division understands the markets our clients operate in and the commercial challenges they face. Whether supporting an established fund administrator, a scaling technology platform or an ambitious digital assets business, we connect organisations with professionals who combine sector expertise with the credibility to build trusted client relationships.

Why Choose Broadgate for Commercial Recruitment?

Broadgate helps clients recruit beyond exact title and product matches. We assess adjacent market experience, buyer relationships, technical understanding and the ability to translate complex products into a credible commercial proposition. This gives growing businesses access to candidates who can enter new markets, build trust with asset managers and create revenue around products that have no established hiring blueprint.

Established fund administrators may need professionals with proven client relationships, sector knowledge and a track record of winning business in the asset management market. FinTech and digital assets businesses often face a different problem. Their products are new, the relevant talent pool is still forming and there may be no candidate with direct experience of selling the solution.

Broadgate’s commitment to business protection means we help clients assess commercial capability, market credibility and long-term suitability, which reduces the risk of appointing someone whose network looks strong on paper but does not match the product, buyer or growth strategy.

People partner with Broadgate for:

Specialist Commercial Recruitment expertise across fund services and financial technology
Talent mapping across adjacent and converging markets
Access to established relationship-led professionals and emerging technology sellers
Assessment of transferable sector knowledge, buyer access and product credibility
Market intelligence on compensation, competitor hiring and candidate availability
Permanent recruitment, interim solutions, retained search and executive appointments
