Executive Recruitment for Banking and Financial Services
Leadership search for retail banking, insurance, wealth management, fintech and capital markets.
Top Tier Recruitment and Head Hunting for The Banking and Financial Services Sector
Leadership in financial services has never mattered more. Faced with regulatory scrutiny, digital disruption, and increasing pressure from shareholders and stakeholders, the sector demands calm, capable and forward-thinking individuals at the top.
At Moon Executive Search, we work closely with banks, insurers, investment firms and fintech businesses to appoint leaders who can steer a steady course and deliver lasting value. From long-established institutions to high-growth challengers, our financial services executive search practice is built on a deep understanding of boardroom dynamics, risk appetite and sector-specific challenges.
We’ve spent over two decades helping organisations appoint transformational leaders in times of growth, change and complexity. Our search work spans executive and non-executive roles, and includes:
Chief Executive Officers
Chief Financial Officers and Finance Directors
Chief Risk Officers and Compliance Leads
Strategy, Operations and Commercial Directors
Chairs and Independent Non-Executive Directors
Every campaign is bespoke. We start by understanding your organisation, its culture, direction and the demands of the role. We ask the right questions, listen carefully, and bring market insight without assumption. From there, we shape a search strategy that reflects your needs and the standards you expect.
Financial services have always been a sector of scrutiny, but today’s leaders face added complexity. The right appointments need to balance performance with integrity, commercial thinking with regulatory awareness, and agility with good governance. Our role is to help you find the people who can do just that.
We’ve worked with listed groups, private equity-backed ventures and international firms. Many of our clients are managing growth or preparing for investment. Others are navigating succession or repositioning their boards for the future. In each case, we act as trusted advisors who are objective, responsive and committed to getting it right.
Moon Executive Search is known for our distinctive, ethical and approachable way of working. We don’t overcomplicate, we bring clarity, connection and continuity to senior appointments, helping you build a leadership team you can depend on.
If you're recruiting at the board or executive level in banking or financial services, we’d be pleased to talk.
