Finance Director BIE Executive

“I have had the pleasure of working with Finn Laurens for over ten years, first as a candidate and later as a client. Andy and Jeannie listen, take the time to understand the individual and the role, and then deliver, managing expectations realistically along the way. Further, Finn Laurens have a grasp of the finance recruitment sector, not just through years of success as recruiters, but personal experience. Andy is a qualified and experienced financial professional. He therefore adds a perspective which many other recruiters cannot – inspiring confidence in client and candidate alike. I would not hesitate to recommend them.”

EMEA Group Financial Controller at Corporate Travel Management

“I’ve worked with Andy at Finn Laurens in my last 3 roles, hiring approximately 10 staff from Part-Qualified Management Accountants to AP Managers to fully Qualified Financial Controllers. On each occasion, the service I have received has been excellent – Andy really listens to, and fully understands what I need, and does not waste my time with inappropriate CV’s. All the candidates I meet are well-prepared and technically competent, so it becomes a matter of choosing based primarily on cultural ‘fit’. This is the way it should be! Without exception, the staff I have recruited would recommend Finn Laurens and use them again in the future, which certainly can’t be said for many recruiters.”

Managing Director Northern Europe, Middle East and Export at Ubisoft

“Ubisoft recently used Jeanne and Andy at Finn Laurens to find a new Finance Director. What I really liked about their approach was that they took the time to really understand the specification we gave them for the role.
To help them get this right they made every effort to understand us as a team as well as the company to ensure that they only put forward candidates that would fit into our culture and business. Throughout the process they were diplomatic, efficient, professional and provided a variety of candidates that gave us a good opportunity to really find the correct person.
Above all I would say that throughout the whole process it was good fun and an absolute pleasure to work with them. I would absolutely work with them again and would recommend them to any potential client that may be considering using them and their services for financial recruitment.”

“I have known Jeanne for many years. She has the ability to very quickly understand what a client is looking for both in terms of the skills a role requires but equally importantly the personality of candidates and whether they would fit into an organisation. 

It is this second strength which is not always found with recruitment agencies; Jeanne has demonstrated more than once that she looks at candidates and makes her own assessment and doesn’t limit her work to putting a CV forward without having an opinion on them. In going to these lengths, she earns her fee and proves a complete recruitment service. 

I have recruited through Jeanne high quality finance professionals and will use Finn Laurens again in the future.”

“I’ve worked with Jeanne for many years whilst I’ve been with several organisation’s and I always use her to find me finance professionals at all levels and especially at the senior end. She completely understands the finance world and is completely honest and trustworthy. I would never want to use anyone else.”
