“I have used OJ Associates for a number of years in my current position and also in
previous roles at other firms. They have very good knowledge of the Compliance
and Risk market, can map out the market well but importantly get they know their
clients and who would, and more importantly who wouldn’t fit the team dynamics
on an assignment. They will understand your requirements and also will only
provide high calibre candidates, priding themselves with a reputation of investing
long term in the client relationship and the candidates relationship. They don’t
waste anyone’s time, they manage the logistical side and prep the candidates well
before interviews and all in all are a pleasure to work with and are one of the most
professional recruitment firms I have worked with.”

Alex Kirk - Head of Financial Planning & Analysis
Swiss Re
“I have had a very successful and productive working relationship with Oliver James
Associates over a number of years, including being placed by them into both my
current and previous employers, and from the hiring perspective, where they have
been involved in the recruitment of certain members of my Financial Planning and
Reporting Team. I have found them to have an excellent technical understanding of
the insurance sector. They take time to understand the requirements of their clients
and they are able to source relevant candidates who closely match the desired
profile. They have a strong knowledge of the candidate marketplace and are able
to provide a consultative approach that greatly benefits the candidates with whom
they work, as well as the clients that they serve. I would highly recommend them as
a specialist search agency to the insurance market.”

exceptional candidates. They gave me confidence that they’d done a good job
on explaining the role. They have also met the brief in producing a diverse set of

our underwriting managers in finding the right calibre of people to join our teams.

and interviewed through Oliver James Associates as well as the high level of
professionalism of the consultants involved in these placements; when we have
complex or niche roles, we do not hesitate to contact Oliver James Associates
as first port of call in the knowledge, they will understand the requirements of the
