The Benchmark in Financial Recruitment

All recruitment firms are not created equal. FinanceMark was founded in 1999 by accountants who were frustrated with the recruitment industry.

Led by Owen Firth, a Chartered Accountant and former Financial Controller, FinanceMark set out to provide an alternative approach to recruitment that was based on a depth of knowledge in finance, delivered by a team of accountants with practical experience in the ‘real world’.

With that philosophy in mind, a strong professional team has been built to deliver benchmark service levels to help organisations build high performance finance teams and assist finance professionals achieve success in their careers

FinanceMark works exclusively in the Finance & Accounting market, providing Permanent, Contract and Temporary recruitment solutions in:

  • Commercial Accounting (from CFO to A/P across all industries) 
  • Professional Accounting (Big4, second tier and small firms)

 

 

“As both a client and a candidate in the accounting market over many years, I struggled to find a recruitment firm that truly understood the technical content of the roles and what it takes to build a high performing finance team. I felt the accounting recruitment market needed the experience and professionalism of people who have actually been out there in accounting and can therefore fully appreciate the needs of organisations and individuals.”- Owen Firth CA, Founder & CEO, FinanceMark
