Let’s Talk
Questions, Answered.
We’re here for the follow-up questions too — reach out and a partner will respond within one business day.
Do you work with traditional banks, FinTech startups, or both?
Both. We place talent for banks and lending institutions navigating regulatory complexity, and for FinTech firms that need to move at startup speed while still meeting compliance requirements.
What compliance-related talent do you provide for financial services firms?
Subject-matter experts and full analyst teams for AML/KYC programs, look-backs, and complex, high-volume compliance engagements, scalable from one specialist to a large project team.
Can you help a FinTech scale its engineering and product teams quickly?
Yes, our technology practice places engineering, data, and product talent, and it works alongside our finance and compliance practices for FinTechs that need all three moving at once.
Do you support NetSuite or other financial systems implementations?
Yes. We’ve delivered domain-matched consultants for a NetSuite talent challenge, placing candidates within 48 hours and a first hire in under five days for a global financial services organization.
How do you balance regulatory expertise with the speed a FinTech needs?
Our team has spent years working across financial services, which means we understand both what a large institution’s compliance function requires and how a smaller, faster-moving FinTech actually operates day to day.
