Recruiting intelligence
Employing sector knowledge and creative sourcing techniques to identify high calibre individuals, Harcourt Matthews meets the demands of modern recruitment by marrying technical excellence with a personal, consultative style that delivers results.
As an expanding company, established in July 1998, specialising in finance and accountancy recruitment, we focus on quality rather than quantity, people rather than statistics. We have a growing reputation for building long-term relationships through good communication, market awareness and simple solutions. Ultimately, however, it is our understanding of the people we work with that sets us apart.
Building Relationships
As a people focused organisation, we offer dynamic communication, building successful long-term alliances.
It is our personal style that defines us. We value the opportunity to meet you face-to-face, giving us a closer understanding of your recruitment requirements. Each consultant at Harcourt Matthews is dedicated to developing specific business relationships while our “buddy system” ensures team support for every project.
Thinking laterally and creatively, we aim to make our clients and candidates think imaginatively about their choices too. This flexibility is key to our approach: we don't just identify people who can do the job - we look for those who can add value and make a difference.

Testimonials
BUPA Hospitals - Duncan Gray, FD, “Harcourt Matthews has provided a highly professional service to BUPA Hospitals Ltd over years and in that time has helped us recruit a large number of staff for our Regional Finance team. Currently Harcourt Matthews is assisting us with the recruitment of a number of posts the most significant of which is a Financial Controller to lead the Regional Finance team¨.
Pizza Hut (UK) Ltd - Fiona Smith, Remuneration & Resourcing Manager, "I have personally worked with Harcourt Matthews on a number of assignments. They are always quick to respond and are happy to adapt their way of working to suit my needs, I especially appreciate their desire to understand and match candidates to the company’s culture. The process is efficient and I know from speaking to candidates that they are well looked after too, which is key. The high calibre of their candidates and the open, honest and friendly way in which they conduct themselves makes them a definite member of my PSL for the foreseeable future¨
James Tindal-Robertson (candidate placed at a Ftse 250 Plc) “I found Harcourt Matthews listened carefully to what suited me best in terms of recruitment process, so that interviews were fitted around my rotation schedule of working overseas. Harcourt Matthews also understood what I was looking for in my next career move, and I found their approach consultative rather than prescriptive. I received a small number of high quality job specs that were of genuine interest. In the end I was successful in the first and only application I made.”
Land Securities (Ftse 100 Plc client) - Matt Kettell, Director, "I was most impressed by the responsiveness of the team at Harcourt Matthews. From their short-list of four candidates, I have ended up recruiting two excellent individuals. Although this was the first time that Land Securities and Harcourt Matthews have worked together, they quickly understood my requirements and have exceeded my expectations in a number of areas."
Virgin Mobile - Mark Bowden, Manager of Business Cases “The service offered by Harcourt Matthews stood head and shoulders above many of the big recruitment names in London, it was professional, efficient and honest. Most of the large recruitment consultancies are guilty of giving you all the sales ‘patter’ at the beginning of a search and then sending you some thoroughly inappropriate candidates. All the candidates from Harcourt Matthews were of good quality and when opportunities next arise in my team, I would not hesitate to contact them.” |
