- 3. “At Eames Consulting Group, we connect the financial and professional services sectors with the talent needed to succeed. But our connections run deeper than this; we place value on the relationships we build with our clients, our candidates and the talent in our own business. By living and breathing this philosophy, our business has grown since its inception in 2002 and we have expanded our operations from London to Zurich, Singapore and Hong Kong with an international team of over 130. Great organisations need great people and our goal has always been to attract, develop and retain recruitment and search professionals who are accountable for delivering an exceptional customer experience in their specialist areas. People who are experts, who develop a true understanding of their markets and whose reputation matters to them. We have cemented Eames as a brand that prioritises relationships and offers a consultative service supported by in depth research at the mid-to-senior level of the market. We are proud of our business and the code of ethics we work to. I have no doubt this has contributed to our impressively loyal client and candidate following. We are on a journey that connects our clients' goals, our candidates’ careers and the people working at Eames: The Red Thread that contributes to our mutual success.” - Matthew Eames, Founder

You can develop your own style and achieve success in many different ways.” “They are an extremely strong platform and a market leader in my field.

There is a real shared knowledge and collaboration. You can turn to anyone in the business for advice.”
