Clients praise our finance executive recruitment capabilities:

“From the time I started at Authentix, we’ve used recruiters from around the world. Nigel Wright Group is hands down the best firm we have ever engaged with.

We filled the position within three weeks of interviewing candidates.” CFO, Authentix

“Nigel Wright Group was recommended to me as the best recruiter for executive-level roles. The strength of that recommendation and their extensive regional networks were why we chose to partner with them. They helped us shape the CFO brief and shortlisted top talent from the North East and Yorkshire. We were delighted to attract a high-calibre individual.” CEO, Beyond Housing

Their consultants manage recruitment processes effectively with positive follow-ups. I appreciate how they’re not too pushy in their communications.” Head of Recruitment, END.

“Homes England required an Assistant Director Financial Strategy & Business Partnering for a period of 4-5 months, whilst a permanent person was recruited. Nigel Wright’s consultant provided a high level of professionalism, patience, flexibility, and insight.
