Rutherford Consulting is a leading provider of interim recruitment solutions and compliance consulting across the Financial Services industry. With a team of experienced professionals and a focus on delivering bespoke solutions, Rutherford Search Consulting is delivering excellence across Talent Acquisition and Compliance Consulting.
Whether you are looking for a critical hire, ensuring a project delivery, or simply looking for a regulatory health check, Rutherford Consulting has the talent and expertise to meet your business needs.
Why Use Contractors and Consulting Services?
None of us are immune to economic challenges. Budgets squeeze, demands increase and the struggle for top talent remains. To mitigate this, Rutherford Search Consulting can provide access to market-leading consultants and contractors that give you the support you need without the long-term commitment of a permanent hire. Contractors and consultants offer you that ‘hit the ground running’ mentality you need, without the associated cost and process it requires.
Premium Expertise Without the Premium Rate
Household consultancies use our talent, for several times the price. We bring you the talent, with rapid delivery, at a fraction of the cost. Why not explore a bench full of talent, without the extensive delivery process.
Swift Deployment and Ease of Process
From agreement of contract, to signing of terms and eventual project delivery, the process of engaging with bigger brands can be a lengthy one. By comparison, Rutherford Consulting can deliver a team of consultants to your business in as little as 48 hours. We can do this whilst ensuring a level of knowledge and expertise which will be sure to meet your business needs. Our projects are led by our compliance partners, supported and upscaled by our talent delivery teams.
Bespoke Solutions
Rutherford Consulting works with industry leading experts across Compliance and Financial Crime. Whether you’re a start-up looking to upscale and apply for your license, or a bank looking for a strategic compliance review, Rutherford Consulting can match you with a consultant or team of advisers to best suit your needs.

The quality of service and candidates that we have received has always been high and this is indicative of Rutherford’s well-deserved reputation in the market.” - Global Head of Compliance, FTSE 250 Asset Manager.
