About the Agency
Fram Search is one of the UK's leading specialist executive search boutiques, founded in 2010 with over 15 years of specialist expertise in financial services recruitment. The company applies active research and executive search techniques to every assignment, not just senior mandates, meaning they approach the best people in the market directly, including those who are not actively looking. Fram Search works on both retained and contingency bases, covering permanent, interim and contract roles, and has built an exceptional track record with a 100% retained search completion rate and contingency success rates nearly three times the industry average.
Fram Search specialises in wealth management, venture capital and asset management recruitment. The company also brings wider expertise across asset finance and specialist lending, debt advisory and corporate finance, EIS and VCT, fintech and digital, insurance, pensions and employee benefits, paraplanners and private equity. Their specialist consultants have spent their careers in financial services recruitment, providing deep understanding of the markets they work in, the firms, the roles, the candidates and the dynamics that make placements succeed.
Fram Search operates across the UK and internationally, with offices strategically located in Silsoe near London and in Manchester to support clients in the North of England and Scotland. The company's head office is positioned near a fast train line into the City, 15 minutes from Luton airport and the M1, whilst the Manchester office serves clients locally across the northern regions. Clients choose Fram Search for their specialist knowledge, proactive research approach, and proven track record of placing senior and specialist talent across the financial services sector.
