Searching for banking and financial services jobs might be easier with the help of industry experts and a process that makes sure you are directed towards the jobs that suit you best.
Poolia - one of the leading job recruitment agencies in UK puts its success down to bringing business clients the best candidates for their positions, while promoting the value of strong relationships with both business and those looking for positions at London institutions.
We characterise our recruiting processes as more akin to that of a headhunter as we scour our database of 95,000 plus candidates and pick the most suitable applicant for a job to satisfy the demand of organisations needing specific qualities for their banking jobs.
Our banking and financial services jobs team has nurtured a strong reputation among investment banks, retail banks, asset managers, commodity brokers, and hedge funds, as well as private equity and private wealth operations as the recruiter of choice.
Poolia is selective in terms of the institutions it works with in order to deliver the best professionals and most suited candidates for its client base seeking to fill banking and financial services jobs.
But for people seeking banking jobs or finance jobs, the variety of roles regularly available ranges from entry-level positions to directorships; there are also vacancies that may fit different individual tastes.
We tailor solutions that cater for each business's needs which can mean a mix of permanent jobs, temporary jobs, contract jobs and interim banking jobs and financial services jobs becoming available.
Change in finance jobs
As we have noted, there is a call among company bosses for those in finance jobs to do more than just numbers with a demand for not only analytical skills but also strong business acumen.
According to Poolia's own salary guide, many senior figures in a number of organisations are keen to employ people in banking and financial services jobs who can add value to what an organisation is offering for customers and clientele, as well as "explain what is behind the numbers".
This is in some ways similar to the extra opportunities facing the finance and accounting sector, where more responsibilities are given to these positions, which may intrigue those currently looking for banking jobs in London.
Variety of banking and financial services jobs
What remains is a number of very different roles to suit part-qualified accountants or fully qualified accountant candidates seeking banking jobs and to match varying levels of experience from those starting out in the career to people seeking directorships and hedge fund management.
Hedge funds alone offer a plethora of different challenges that may attract talented or ambitious people.
One estimate from the Guardian indicates that there are 10,000 professionals in this sector employed directly, not to mention lawyers and accountants which make up another 30,000.
Those looking to forge a career in investment banking jobs also have a range of specialist areas in which to focus, as the London Investment Banking Association indicates.
And this can include working in the derivatives market, and investment management of pensions funds or bonds, as well as working for government organisations and many more banking and financial services jobs.
Hedge funds and investment banking jobs are just two of our areas of expertise available on offer.
Knowing what banking jobs candidates can offer
No matter what changes in demands from senior company bosses, as hinted at earlier, what will never change is that Poolia's team will interview candidates at least twice to ascertain what skills and abilities they can offer to employers, thus finding the right banking jobs for them.
Similarly, we and our team of industry experts maintain contact with companies in the sector to make sure of meeting our CV guarantee given to business clients that applicants recommended to them are matching their requirements.
Our testimonials show the level of customer satisfaction from previous workers who have used Poolia to further their career prospects.
A female worker with a London organisation even said she recommended Poolia for jobs in London to all her friends and consistently urged her employer to stick with us.
We offer a variety of permanent jobs as well as temporary jobs across a range of sectors based in the UK's capital, including banking jobs.
For those looking for banking and financial services jobs, it can be easy as starting with an informal conversation with our team to discuss options.
