“I approached AJB Executive Search in June 2014 when I was seeking a new position within Compliance. I was advised that I would be contacted when a suitable position became available and was pleased to hear from Jonathan to discuss a compliance vacancy within a Bank. I was put forward for only one position and accepted the offer and was most impressed with the salary package that was negotiated on my behalf. I am happy to recommend the services of AJB Executive Search for any candidate seeking a career opportunity. Jonathan and team provided help and support from start to finish. They were extremely knowledgeable and approachable at all times. I was kept informed and updated throughout. I am happy in my position in an organised, modern practice. Thank you for all the help!”
Temitope Olukoya – Compliance Associate – March 2015“I first met Jonathan over 10 years ago when he placed me as a Compliance Director into a multi-national firm and he has always impressed me with his professionalism and knowledge of many differing sectors within the Compliance space. He takes time to understand his candidates to ensure that he does not waste his clients time with a scattergun approach to CV delivery and would not hesitate to recommend AJB’s services to clients and candidates alike”.

I dealt directly with Jonathan in securing my current position which I had been seeking for a very long time. From the moment I interacted with Jonathan, I felt comfortable in going through the interview process with him. He kept me informed and gave me interview tips ahead of each stage and totally believed in the fact that I would do well and secure the position.
