Bayman Atkinson Smythe are a specialist financial recruitment consultancy, that really puts people at the heart of what we do. We formed in 2022 following the merger of Bayman Topping & Smythe and Atkinson Resourcing. Both organisations shared the same values, offering similar services, so it was a very easy and natural decision for both parties to join together, and strengthen our market offering even further.

Our extensive knowledge of the marketplace comes from over 108 years of combined experience, recruiting qualified accounting professionals into the private, public, and not for profit sectors.  In addition, we have consultants who specialise in Practice, Tax, and Treasury.  We treat all roles as being equal across the seniority levels, regardless of Permanent, Interim, or Temporary.

We like to feel we have quite a unique people-centric approach to financial recruitment – which puts the people that we work with, on both sides of the process, firmly at the centre of what we do and how we deliver our services. We take a fresh approach where we go to any length required to achieve successful appointments for our clients, which is why we have such a high success rate in filling roles.

We have strong and long-lasting relationships with clients and candidates alike, across the years, which have stood the testament of time. Our open and honest approach, tempered with kindness, patience, and sometimes quite frank advice, on both sides of the fence, is what has given us a name and enabled us to hold a strong position in the recruitment marketplace. We are seen as people to be trusted to handle standard and sensitive recruitment. We are tenacious and don’t give up, adapting and advising as the marketplace changes, to ensure we are giving relevant advice and support.
