This client is a boutique asset manager based in the West End. They specialise in equities and fixed income and have an AUM of around £5 billion. FourthLine were approached by the CF10 to source a regulatory specialist to help with impact assessments.
The issue:
The firm had struggled to get to grips with the impact of MiFID II on the business and realised quickly that the compliance function was not fit for purpose within the ever-evolving regulatory landscape. After engaging and being disappointed by some of their more generalist recruitment suppliers they decided to turn to FourthLine after an ex-colleague recommended them as a specialist in the field.
The solution:
FourthLine took the time to understand the job specification thoroughly and also provided the client with some useful feedback and insight into the elements of the requirement which were over ambitious for the salary on offer. We turned an excellent shortlist around in one week and managed the process throughout until an an appointment was made.
