George has been a fantastic help! I engaged him twice in the last couple years and in both occasions he was not only super professional, but also very effective! He got me interviews with at least 5 of the hottest hedge funds in the US, with the end result (both times) being a job that pays really well and I enjoy. This sounds corny but I really can't say anything but good things about the service provided!

Ben Stanyard was fantastic to work with throughout my recruitment process. He was genuinely honest and transparent at every stage, and he treated me like an individual rather than just another candidate.
I was dealing with a stressful situation caused by another company during the contract signing, and Ben really helped me stay calm and navigate it. His support and communication made a big difference and helped me overcome a pretty big problem.
Highly recommended - thank you again, Ben!

It was the most genuine, personalised and helpful mediation for joining a recruiter and a recruitee. I was given a comfortable space to share my concerns and opinions about the entire process. Best part was Oliver's involvement as he kept the process very transperant. Before and after every interview, I was given full clarity on what to expect, what are the next steps. This makes the process much smoother and makes you prepared for exactly what to expect.

I had the pleasure of working with George to land my current role. We were in communication from around April 2025.
George is highly professional and a great listener. He is one of the few recruiters I've ever worked with who made sure to accommodate even my smallest requirements around role specifics, interview timings, target company profile, comp range, etc.
One thing I really appreciated is that George didn't inundate me with opportunities to see the one that would stick. I really appreciate tha he did all the filtering on his end and only brought up the opportunity that was most likely to be a fit (and in my case was)
The new role is a perfect fit for me.

I know agency recruitment is a sales job where we, applicants are the product, but, especially at the level you are recruiting, it would be great if you wouldn't ghost applicants.
I haven't received a single response to any of my emails or applications this year. Not a single one. Unless I was unlucky enough to run into the same person who just stubbornly refuses to respond to messages, I'd say it's somewhat representative to how you (and, to be fair, not just you) "work" with candidates.

Ben was truly exceptional throughout the whole journey. He explained the role very well, gave me help with each stage of the very long interview process, and always chased up Optiver to let me know how I was progressing. He gave me multiple interview tips, and I think I couldn't have done it without him. Thanks so much Ben for all your help.

Cameron helped me to get a few interviews for QD roles, and offered clear communication and tips over the process. It is also appreciated that we managed to negotiate a number I am pretty happy with.
Highly recommend them if you would like to apply for roles in hedge funds.

Cameron at Radley James was very helpful during the process. Giving background of the steps involved, meeting information, background on interviewers where possible. Cameron also helped keeping me updated afterwards, how to approval process at the firm I was applying to is going, delays and expected dates.

Had a really positive experience with a recruiter at Radley James, kept in close contact and always available when I needed to talk about the process and the hiring landscape. Lot's of thanks to @Enpu.

My experience with this recruitment firm was excellent. They made every step, finding opportunities, applying, communicating with companies, and transitioning into a new role, extremely smoothly. The team is genuinely friendly and focused on making the process as easy as possible. They are well-connected across the industry and have a strong understanding of their partner companies, which helped me access great opportunities and gain valuable insights into each role.

George was top notch. Friendly and easy to work with, allowing you to focus on what matters. Proactive at chasing the hirer all throughout a lengthy interview process and keeping me in the loop all the while. Ensured a fitting contract was signed at the end with no hassle for the candidate.

Oli is very professionnal and knows the market well. He has a strong network to source and place candidates in quantitative trading. Highly recommend him.

Working with Oliver has been very pleasant. We focused on a few companies, GTS and Tudor, but the process with GTS was very fast and got a good offer within one month from starting the process.
As a headhunter Oliver strikes a good balance between keeping me updated with the state of the process without swamping me with unnecessary calls as others do. Working together I realized that he is knowledgeable of the firm he was submitting my resume and his contacts are solid.
In summary it was a very good and profitable working relationship.

The recruiter I worked with was Joseph and he was such a great help. He was real and gave excellent support and was very down to earth. I felt as he wanted me to win and felt very motivating as well as reassuring. The only thing that I would add is that the Job Descriptions on LinkedIn are very short. I am not sure if that is the policy of the specific company I was interviewing for or if Radley James only sends out the full job description once greeted with the initial call. I feel as it made the job seem like a bit of a scam and potentially turned some potential prospects away from applying. Overall though, a great experience.

Hamed Jabbari recently helped me to land into a new job. He was very helpful during the whole process: introduced me to multiple potential new employers, shared his input on how these roles could potentially benefit me, and helped during the negotiations once the interview process was completed.
He addressed all my questions from start to end, and I wouldn’t doubt working with him again in the future.
