What makes a good fintech recruitment agency?

The best fintech recruitment agencies combine deep sector knowledge (payments, lending, crypto, wealth), regulatory understanding (FCA, PSD2), and networks across both traditional finance and technology sectors.

How much do fintech recruiters charge?

Fintech recruitment fees range from 15-20% for contingency search to 25-33% for retained executive search. Fractional platforms charge fixed placement fees regardless of salary.

Which fintech roles are hardest to recruit?

CFOs with fintech experience, regulatory compliance officers, and CTOs who understand both financial services and modern technology stacks are the most challenging fintech hires.
