Established as one of the largest independent financial recruitment companies in the UK, my award-winning client is looking for a number of graduates to join their fast paced, progressive business.

They have a dedicated Chill Out Zone consisting of a Nintendo Wii connected to a 42" plasma TV, notebooks equipped with Wi-Fi access, darts boards, table football, subsidised vending machines and a fridge full of beer. They offer Spanish, Photography and Art classes, have a subsidised company holiday every year, offer free beauty treatments and free breakfasts every morning.
