Goodacre provides a specialist executive search service for regulated companies. Our service is not built on a typical recruitment background. It comes from the financial services community itself, with decades of direct experience of hiring, managing and working alongside the professionals we place.
We work discreetly and efficiently to identify the right people for senior leadership, compliance, operational and specialist roles across wealth and fund management, securities, investment management and fintech.
Most recruitment firms approach financial services from the outside. Goodacre approaches it from within. Our consultants have held board and senior positions at major financial institutions, which means we understand the roles we are filling, the cultures we are placing into, and the calibre of candidate that will genuinely add value.
All executive search and candidate enquiries are handled with complete discretion. We do not share details of live searches or candidate information without explicit consent from all parties.
We place permanent, contract and fixed-term professionals across the full range of roles within regulated financial firms and the technology and service companies that support them.
Managing directors, chief operating officers, heads of function and board-level appointments (both executive and NED positions) across regulated firms.
Compliance officers, MLRO appointments, regulatory change specialists, SMCR function holders and risk managers.
Operations managers, settlement specialists, reconciliations professionals and client assets experts across investment firms and platforms.
Client-facing and operational professionals within private banks, wealth managers, stockbrokers and discretionary fund managers.
Project managers, business analysts and implementation specialists with experience in financial systems, platforms and data within the investment industry.
Senior commercial, technical and operational professionals within the technology and service companies supplying the regulated investment sector.
Our consultants have direct experience of the regulated financial services sector. We understand the roles we fill and the environments we are placing into, which means faster, better-matched results.
Since 1998 Goodacre has built relationships across investment management, wealth management, stockbroking, compliance and fintech. Our network gives us access to candidates who are not actively looking but are open to the right opportunity.
We handle all assignments with complete confidentiality. For senior and sensitive appointments this is not optional — it is how we operate on every engagement.
We place across all employment types. Whether you need a permanent hire, an interim specialist to cover a project or a fixed-term resource, we can respond quickly and effectively.
We take the time to understand your firm, your team and the specific demands of each role before beginning a search. This reduces wasted time for both sides and improves the quality of every shortlist we present.
