About Adrian O'Connor

I help finance and accounting professionals advance their careers or solve hiring problems with innovative and solutions driven methodologies.Recruitment is broken. It's an industry I am proud to be part of, that I have spent over 20 years in and that I think can do a great deal of good, but it is broken.Clients are routinely oversold to and under-delivered to, by recruiters who lack specialist knowledge and can't consult or advise. Candidates are commoditised, sold the dream whilst they are deemed useful and immediately forgotten about thereafter. No other industry treats their customers or their "product" that way.I have spent my career working to build teams of recruiters who see it differently, who are constantly developing specialist knowledge, who take pride in consulting, giving great advice and solving problems with innovative, value adding services.If you are a finance or accounting professional who is disillusioned with the same old recruitment patter, please message me directly and I will be glad to introduce you to a diligent, knowledgeable and solutions based recruiter from our teams.
