Contingent Permanent Recruitment for Financial Services

Finding the right hire is not just about matching CVs to job specifications. It requires an understanding of your business, culture and the talent landscape in your market.

Fram’s contingent recruitment service brings executive search-quality thinking to permanent hiring, without the retained fee structure. We work exclusively within financial services, with specialist expertise across wealth management, venture capital, asset management and related markets.

Our fill rates are nearly three times the industry average. This is driven by deep sector knowledge, established candidate relationships and a process built around quality rather than volume.

Whether you are hiring a single role or building out a team, we provide a responsive, consultative service, keeping you informed throughout and delivering a shortlist you can have confidence in.

Our Process

1. Briefing

We take time to understand your firm, culture and requirements

2. Proactive Search

We are trained headhunters and utilise search techniques on all assignments.

3. Benchmarking

We aim to shortlist high quality 'benchmarking' candidates early, and then refine our search - we listen.

4. Shortlist

We interview and screen all candidates and work hard to submit a diverse shortlist of high quality candidates.

5. Placement

We help support the interview, offer management and integration process.

Working with Chloe has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Chloe took the time to truly understand our needs and presented us with a strong selection of well-suited candidates. Throughout the process, communication was seamless, where we were kept informed at every stage and felt fully supported from the initial brief right through to the successful placement. The whole experience has been efficient, collaborative, and genuinely enjoyable.

We wouldn’t hesitate to use Fram's services again and wholeheartedly recommend Fram Search to anyone looking for recruitment support.
