SECURED LICENCES WITH CRITICAL KEY HIRES OF THE FINANCIAL INSTITUTION, ALLOWING THEM TO CONSOLIDATE THEIR TIME AND RESOURCES.

A leading Financial Institution sought a strategic partner to streamline their recruitment processes. Our collaboration began with a trial phase, involving close collaboration with their HR team and the hiring community. As a result, we placed a number of key roles within the first six months, which allowed the business to secure their banking licence. After demonstrating our capabilities, we have now moved into an exclusive partnership.

TESTIMONIAL:

“As a start-up, every hire we make is key to our success. MBA has worked with us, a new entrant bank with a limited profile, on the roles that we have been struggling to fill. They have happily taken up the challenges we have given them. They provide us with open and honest feedback on our expectations and always seek as much information from us as possible, listening to what we say to make sure that they are able to deliver on the brief.

They have found some amazing people who have joined us and are driving our business forward towards our launch. Also, our candidates really appreciate the support and information that MBA gives them throughout the process.”
