Finance Staffing Agency

Roles We Fill

For ledger, close, controls, AP and AR, payroll, audit, and tax roles, see our accounting staffing page, which covers a different candidate profile and screening approach.

How Screening Works for Finance Roles

The AI Video Interviewer runs scenario questioning built from real FP&A and corporate finance situations: a forecast that has missed three quarters running, a business partner disputing an allocation, a pricing assumption nobody wants to revisit, a board question about a number that moved unexpectedly. What we are assessing is whether the candidate identifies the right question, holds a position under pressure, and explains the conclusion in language a non-finance executive would act on.

Technical capability still gets tested, and the AI Resume Screener ranks candidates on systems exposure, industry fit, and the scale of business they have supported. But the recording is the part hiring managers find most useful, because a finance candidate who can talk through a difficult conversation on camera is demonstrating the exact skill the role requires, and one who cannot is revealing something a modelling test never would.

What These Roles Pay

Bonus structures in finance are often material, so agree whether an agency fee applies to base or total compensation before signing. Ours applies to base. Full data across 93 roles sits in our free salary benchmarks, and job descriptions for over 900 roles in the JD library.

Fees Compared

Senior finance is where specialist recruiters price hardest, because they know the roles are business-critical and rarely open. On a $180,000 finance director, a flat 14% is $25,200 against $36,000 to $54,000 at typical rates, and up to $63,000 at retained pricing.

How the specialist finance recruiters structure their pricing and where their depth genuinely lies is covered in our head-to-head breakdowns, including Randstad vs Robert Half, Experis vs Robert Half, and Akkodis vs Robert Half.

How Hyring Delivers

In finance hiring, the difference between an expensive analyst and a valuable one is judgement rather than technique, and judgement only shows up when someone has to defend a position. Six things run behind every shortlist:

All of it lands in one portal: every candidate uploaded with recording and score attached, clear stages your whole team can see, and feedback captured on the profile rather than in a thread half the panel is missing from.

The Full Service Stack

RPO fits companies building a finance function from scratch, and staff augmentation covers interim capacity during audits, system migrations, or funding events.

Finance and Accounting Under One Agreement

The pattern is common enough to be predictable. A scaling company needs an FP&A manager and a senior accountant in the same quarter. FP&A goes to one specialist recruiter, accounting to another, because that is how the vendor landscape is organised. Two agreements, two account managers, two fee schedules averaging somewhere in the mid-twenties, and two versions of the truth about pipeline.

Both role families run through one engine here. Scenario-based screening calibrated separately for commercial finance judgement and for accounting controls judgement, one portal showing both funnels, one flat 14%. That is not a bundling discount, it is simply what happens when the screening is automated rather than dependent on a recruiter who specialises in one or the other.

For transactional finance operations that can run remotely, our staff augmentation service places dedicated staff in India at roughly 60 to 70% below US cost, with Insight by Hyring keeping engagements transparent. Strategic and business-partnering finance roles generally belong close to the business, and we will say so rather than push an offshore model where it will fail. The cost-per-hire calculator in the free HR Toolkit models the split if you want the numbers before a call.
