Financial Services Hiring Insights & Sector Overview

Broadgate's Financial Services recruitment experts help leadership teams build trusted, high-performing functions that withstand regulatory pressure, retain talent, and contribute to your company culture.

 

 

Financial Services never stand still. Regulatory reforms, evolving customer expectations, digital transformation and global volatility all fuel the growth of the world's most dynamic sector. 

The team at Broadgate have been partnering with world-class professionals and firms for over a decade.

From banking to insurance and investments, we've helped grow teams across the full spectrum of financial services, and if there's something that doesn't change, it's the fundamentals of great recruitment: Speed and quality.

Speed matters when markets move fast; Quality matters when regulation never stops changing. Strong relationships, built over time with clients, candidates, and colleagues who trust us to deliver, tie the two together.

Our Approach to Hiring

Broadgate was founded with a clear vision: to create a staffing agency built around people, culture, and excellence. In the pursuit to raise the bar in the recruitment industry, we built a business that prioritises trust and rigour.  

What this means in practice:

  • Versatile delivery models – from traditional recruitment to consulting and SOW solutions, we build teams in the way that best suits each customer's strategy and long-term vision.

  • A 12-step, regulator-ready assessment framework – our proprietary evaluation programme, designed for executive recruitment, goes beyond sourcing to ensure leaders, boards, and teams are capable, compliant, and culturally impactful.

  • Access to offline talent – through industry events, roundtables, and community programmes, we engage highly skilled, engaged, and often passive candidates.

  • Part of the Trinnovo Group ecosystem – four specialised brands, one connected service; collective expertise across regulation, technology, and advanced technology.

  • A commitment to diversity – since day one, we’ve worked to improve representation in financial services by helping firms attract and retain talent from historically underserved candidate demographics. Through our communities, charity partnerships and in-house inclusion programmes, we strive to create a fairer industry for all.

When firms choose Broadgate as their talent partner, it’s because they need a specialist who understands the pace and precision their teams operate with.

Whether it's navigating headcount constraints, delivering on regulatory deadlines, or securing talent that can perform in complex, high-pressure environments, we help organisations hire with confidence. Our role is to solve your business challenges by building the workforce capabilities you need to enjoy long-term success.
