2. Overview
Who we are
Oliver James Associates are a specialist recruitment partner to the Financial Services sector;
finding and placing market-leading talent across the world. When the company originally set
up we were purely focussed on the insurance sector, however we now focus on all areas of
Financial Services.
We are able to provide a full range of bespoke recruitment services tailored to your needs,
including Executive, Contingent, Retained and Exclusive Solutions. Whichever type of search
we do, the key to our service is our unique proactive search methodology. Before we start
working with clients in a particular area, we spend 12 months minimum mapping that market.
This involves talking to everyone in that market, finding out what they have done in their career
so far, what they currently do and more importantly what they want to do in their next job.
Hence when we start working with clients on vacancies we have a thorough knowledge of the
local talent pool.
How we do it
Due to our unique search methodology, our deep technical knowledge, and our continued
success on delivery we develop long-term relationships based on trust and integrity. Due to
the strength of these relationships we help organisations to attract the most suitable talent in
the market instead of being limited to a list of candidates that are actively seeking jobs. No
other agency has their roots so engrained within the market as we do, and this allows us to find
candidates that no other agency can get access to. This is paramount when the demand for
many skills needed within the sector outweighs the supply of candidates at any one time.
