Headhunting
for Banking, Finance & Insurance

The financial sector is dealing with a dual challenge: on the one hand, the pressure to accelerate digital transformation; on the other, an increasingly complex regulatory landscape. Innovation moves fast — open banking, fintech, blockchain, AI for risk management — but every step forward must take GDPR, MiFID II, AML regulations and cybersecurity requirements into account.

Our Headhunters, specialised in the banking and financial sector, work every day with professionals who operate within this tension: from Risk Managers to Digital Banking Managers, from Compliance Officers to CISOs, all the way to the leaders of fintech companies.

Headhunters for Banking, Finance & Insurance: finding those who can balance innovation and rigour

Digital transformation in finance is unlike any other sector. Innovation alone is not enough: every technological choice must pass through rigorous compliance checks, risk assessments and regulatory validation. A Digital Banking Manager must master open-banking APIs as well as PSD2 directives. A CISO must protect sensitive data from increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, while an Insurance Manager explores InsurTech opportunities without losing sight of IVASS regulations.

Traditional banks, challenger banks, insurance companies, fintechs and insurtechs have different needs, yet all seek the same thing: talent fluent in two languages — the language of traditional finance and the language of innovation.

Our Engage&Hire approach for Banking, Finance & Insurance embraces this complexity, identifying hybrid professionals able to move with ease between technological innovation and regulatory constraints. With our Collaborative Recruiting® method, every search includes a dual evaluation: a sector-expert Scout assesses technical skills and regulatory knowledge, while the headhunter focuses on managerial capabilities, strategic mindset and cultural fit. Two complementary perspectives to identify professionals capable of turning regulatory challenges into competitive opportunities.
