FINANCIAL SERVICES INDUSTRY

In mid-2004, in response to growing demand from our clients for a focused technology recruitment solution in this sector, Abraxas established our financial services practice in Sydney .

Abraxas specialises in assisting our clients to identify technologists with additional business skills and industry specific experience pertinent to their environment; for example Business Analysts with specialist reinsurance or claims knowledge or investment banking technologists with experience of working closely with front-office business users in a specialist product area - perhaps equities or derivatives.

Over the course of our history, we have developed close strategic, trust-based relationships with clients across sectors including funds management; investment banking; general insurance and re-insurance; consumer finance; life assurance and software vendors and consultancies supplying services into the finance sector. Many of these organisations use Abraxas exclusively. As a result, we're uniquely positioned to introduce you to the best, career-enhancing opportunities in the market - some of which are only available through Abraxas. We provide permanent, contract and interim management positions at all levels, in all technologies.

Pipeline Resource from outside Australia

In addition, we are in possession of close strategic links and internal intellectual capital focused on the UK market. We have offices in London and our specialist financial services consultants have extensive City of London market experience. As a result, Abraxas are able to offer our clients access to new, exclusive financial markets talent from outside of the Australian marketplace, on the occasions when the required skillsets are not available locally. The 'pipe-line' solution is a unique service based around Abraxas sourcing and identifying talent from all over the world, who are qualified and able to work in Australia - typically candidates with either Australian residency already in place, a pre-arranged long-term business visa or residents returning home. Abraxas enjoys strategic pipeline partnerships with a large number of the leading Australian financial services organisations and is viewed as a supplier of choice in this area.

In addition we are able to relocate specialists to Australia who do not have residency or a work visa in place. Click here for more information on this service.
