MatureAccountants was set up in 2005 to address two issues that we had identified in our

working life's, namely the difficulty that many experienced accountants have in getting work when

they get to a certain age (as young as their early 40s) and the added-value that experienced

candidates can offer, typically to the SME community where busy and in many cases

overstretched owner-managers need access to our type of resources. The “mature” candidate

(and we are talking here about experience and NOT age) provides a range of attractive options

1. They are available at short notice.
2. They can hit the ground running.
3. They are happy to look at full time, part time and interim roles.
4. They need minimum training and supervision.
5. They are commercially savvy so can deal with suppliers, customers, banks and the Revenue.
6. They understand that “cash is king” in any business.
7. They are used to managing teams and getting the best out of people.
8. Most of them have seen all before so they are not easily fazed by difficult situations.
9. They are not on a career path so are more likely to stay the course.
10. They want to work.
11. And they are flexible in their requirements.

We have over 1500 candidates on our books and that number is increasing daily. They all have one thing in thing in common and that is experience. Whether it is an experienced Sageline 50 book-keeper to

somebody who has worked as CFO for a FTSE 100 company we cover a wide range of capabilities

and skills. We have many candidates with experience of MBO/MBI transactions and exposure

to VC/PE backed deals as well as many who have floated business on the public markets.

When you deal with MatureAccountants you deal with experienced finance professionals NOT

recruiters. As a former MD and FD of a range of companies including VC backed we can offer our

clients a service that goes way beyond traditional recruitment. We work with a number of associates who are also experienced accountants so we all talk the same language and in many cases we can offer

As we are a lean business with minimal overhead we can offer very competitive terms to our clients

with recruitment fees starting as low as 15% of the salary. We can offer a bespoke service for each for each vacancy and we will do as much of the process as the client requires. For higher-level FD roles we roles we will not only do the initial search, we will if necessary conduct initial face-to-face interviews and

undertake profiling and referencing as part of the service, and the fee will reflect the level of work

As we are small, we pride ourselves on being very responsive and our ability to provide a first-class

personal service. Why not try it out and see.
