We help fintech founders and leadership teams hire with confidence - delivering high-quality technology and finance talent through authentic insight, clear judgement, and delivery at pace.
You don’t need to spend time explaining the obvious. We quickly get to grips with your product, operating environment, and growth priorities, giving you honest, straight-talking guidance. We run focused, agile searches to identify people who can make an immediate and lasting impact.
Alongside UK hiring, we also support fintechs and UK based business in building high-performing teams in South Africa - unlocking access to exceptional talent while supporting scale, efficiency, and long-term, sustainable growth.

We’re a UK-based recruitment consultancy specialising in fintech, finance, and technology hiring. With over 20 years of experience, we bring good judgement and authenticity to hiring decisions.
Our role is simple: to reduce hiring risk and help you build teams that perform - now and as you scale.

We operate as an extension of your team, managing the entire hiring process end to end.
Our approach includes:
- Deep briefing on strategy, roadmap, and culture
- Market insight on role design and salaries
- Targeted search and direct outreach
- Thorough candidate screening
- Presenting only best-fit candidates
- Product & delivery (Product, BA, Delivery, Implementation)
- Engineering & data
- Risk, compliance & AML
- Payments & operations
- Sales, partnerships & go-to-market
- Financial controllers & finance managers
- FP&A & commercial finance
- Heads of finance & CFOs
- Software & platform engineering
- Cloud, DevOps & infrastructure
- Data, automation & reliability
- Engineering leadership & CTO-level hires
We work as a true partner, taking ownership of the process and communicating honestly throughout. That’s how we build long-term relationships and deliver outcomes our clients trust.
We act as a specialist recruitment partner, not a CV provider. That means fewer candidates, deeper conversations, and decisions made with long-term impact in mind.
- No mass submissions or recycled CVs
- Clear alignment on culture, values, and expectations
- Honest advice, even when it’s not the easy option
- Candidates assessed for capability and fit
We help fintech businesses make hiring decisions they can be confident in - now and as they scale. With over 20 years of recruitment experience, our approach is thoughtful and selective, and we value relationships and authenticity.
We work best with UK-based fintech businesses that are founder-led, growth-focused, recently funded or preparing to scale, and hiring without an internal recruitment team.

It has come to our attention that people are being contacted by individuals claiming to be in partnership with Collage Recruitment, claiming that Collage Recruitment shared their contact details.
Please know that Collage Recruitment never holds nor shares in formation about candidates or individuals without consent. We care deeply about data protection and comply with guidelines.
