KNOW THE MARKET BEFORE YOU NEED THE MARKET

Coyne & Associates is an independent, values-led Experienced Hires and Search business specialising exclusively in qualified finance.

For over 25 years, we've built trusted relationships with exceptional finance professionals across the South West and beyond. Long before a vacancy exists, we're investing time understanding people's ambitions, strengths and motivations. That's why our clients gain access to talent in the market—not simply talent on the market.

In today's market, attracting applications is rarely the challenge. Senior finance roles can generate hundreds of CVs through LinkedIn, AI and direct advertising. The challenge is making the right hiring decision.

Advertising gives you everyone who wants the job. We introduce you to the people you'd never otherwise meet—and help you understand who is genuinely capable of delivering the commercial outcomes your business needs.

Our role extends beyond recruitment. We provide market intelligence, honest advice and independent judgement, helping C&D Suite understand the market before they hire. Sometimes that means identifying exceptional passive talent. Sometimes it means challenging the brief, advising on salary expectations or recommending a different approach altogether.

Our candidate-led model means we follow talent, not sectors. We work with organisations ranging from venture-backed and private equity-backed businesses to established private companies and listed organisations, consistently introducing high-calibre finance leaders whose experience, capability and potential extend beyond traditional market boundaries.

Ultimately, recruitment isn't about filling vacancies. It's about reducing the risk of one of the most important commercial decisions a business will make.

Helping you make better hiring decisions.
