COMPANY PROFILE:
Randstad Financial & Professional may appear to be the new name in the world of recruitment - but we have a long established reputation.

Our roots can be traced back to the 1980s when four specialist recruitment firms were all independently formed. Joslin Rowe was established in 1982 as a financial services specialist. Hughes-Castell and Prolaw came next - with their focus on legal recruitment. Then in 1989 Martin Ward Anderson was created to serve the accountancy & finance arena.

In 2008 we became sister companies under the Randstad umbrella (integrating in 2009) and in 2011 we formally changed our name to Randstad Financial & Professional. Headquartered in London, our combined expertise has resulted in a network of offices across the UK,

Our parent company, Randstad, is the second largest recruitment group in the world, ensuring we benefit from enviable global access and sector variety - which in turn means incredible long term career opportunities for our staff.
