WELCOME TO DESTAN GROUP
THE DESTAN APPROACH
Destan Group has been formed to provide expert level recruitment services within finance and financial services markets. Operating UK wide, we partner with a select number of organisations we know and trust, supporting them as they recruit for key roles across their head office functions.
With a background that spans both agency and internal recruitment we appreciate the world has moved on somewhat with how organisations source talent. However, we believe there will always be a need for specialist external recruiters and that by offering creative, bespoke solutions for a particular business with particular requirements we will continue to thrive.
David is an outstanding recruiter. I was headhunted for a role I would never have considered and it turns out to be the best career move I have ever made! Professional, thorough and consistently going the extra mile are but just a few reasons that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend David.
