be part of the crusade to raise the bar of Actuarial & Pricing recruitment…
We are looking to raise the bar of Actuarial & Pricing recruitment and provide a first-class values focussed service to our clients and candidates
We believe clients and candidates in the Actuarial & Pricing markets are often taken for granted. We believe clients and candidates deserve better. That’s why we’re on a mission to improve this one placement at a time.
We’re driven by our values (fairness, transparency and community) and these are more than just words. That’s why we’re doing things to put clients and candidates at the heart of what we do. Here’s just a couple of these…
Giving fees back to our clients…
we believe it’s only fair to give back to clients who we make multiple placements with. Not promising ‘future’ discount but showing what a true partnership looks like by returning fees after certain milestones or donating the equivalent sum to the clients nominated charity partner or esg initiative.
Giving long term contractors a pay rise…
we don’t think it’s fair to charge a client the same margin on a contractor after 12 months. After all our main role is to find great Actuarial & Pricing talent and introduce them to the client and as time goes on, we believe our daily margin (fee) should be reduced, with the saving passed on to the client hopefully resulting in a rate increase for the contractor.
Giving to our candidates communities…
every time we help someone move roles we will make a minimum donation of £100 to a cause that’s important to them. Whether this be a charity donation or supporting a Just Giving fund raiser.
Transparency for clients and candidates…
we want our clients to see candidates original CVs. Agency formatting of CVs is not transparent, and we think candidates and clients should be able to form a first impression based on the candidates ability to articulate their experience, not an agency.
Transparency for candidates…
we want our stakeholders to understand how we get paid. We want to see more transparency in the recruitment market and where we are permitted by the client, will tell our candidates exactly what we get paid for finding them a new role. Changing roles is a huge decision and it’s only right that candidates know what is in it for the associated third parties. Transparency builds trust.

The heartbeat of every company is its people and its culture. We aim to foster a collaborative, exciting and vibrant culture built on trust.
We are not clock watchers
you won’t be told what time to start or finish work, we trust people to deliver what they say they will for their clients and candidate. Simple.
We love new ideas
recruiting in a highly complex Actuarial & Pricing market throws up challenges all the time and you need to think quickly to solve them. We love nothing more than encouraging and embracing new ideas no matter how experienced you are. We need brilliant problem solvers.
We have perspective on work life balance
crazy old school recruitment hours, masculine competitive culture? Yup, that’s not us. We love solving our client’s recruitment problems, but we also love our lives outside of work. Our vibe is your health is your wealth, go the gym during the day, take a wellbeing day when you need to, and we have a zero-tolerance policy of being contacted on annual leave.
Be yourself
we’re inclusive and want everyone to be themselves in work. We have a culture where you don’t have a ‘work persona’ and you feel comfortable being who you really are.
No quick wins
if you like taking shortcuts, looking for shaky quick wins and don’t put your clients and candidates first then you’re not for us. We invest in your long term and expect you to do the same with our clients and candidates.
We love a good knees-up
we love to celebrate success and ensure that it is not all work and no play.
