Accountancy and Advisory Partner Hires
Partner-Level Executive Search for the Accountancy & Advisory Markets
At SJC Partners, we provide specialist Partner-level and senior leadership recruitment for accountancy practices, consultancy firms and advisory businesses. Our work covers audit, tax, accounts preparation, valuation (contentious & non-contentious), forensic accounting, eDiscovery, corporate finance and deal advisory.
We have placed a wide range of Partners into Big 4 firms, mid-tier practices and specialist advisory boutiques, delivering off-market senior talent that typical recruitment processes fail to reach.
Our approach is thorough, tailored and tenacious. Every mandate is delivered through a true headhunt model: detailed market research, targeted shortlists and direct, discreet approaches to high-calibre individuals who are not active in the market. We position both the business and the opportunity with clarity and precision to ensure strong engagement and high conversion.
Before outreach begins, we produce a full market map of the addressable population, giving clients complete visibility of firms, teams, service lines and senior individuals. From there, we manage the entire process end-to-end; research, initial approach, longlisting, shortlisting, interview management, referencing and offer handling, through to hire.
Our executive search team brings over 60 years of combined experience in accountancy and advisory recruitment, giving us a deep understanding of how these markets really work.
If you are seeking a search partner that understands the accountancy & advisory markets and can secure senior talent others cannot reach, we can deliver.
