Best London headhunters at senior level

Who are the good London headhunters for senior roles (15 years + experience) in public credit, be it in alternatives or long-only?

Most of the names mentioned previously seem to target junior to mid-level candidates.

I appreciate the best way is through the network but always good to cast the net far and wide.

Thank you. Tricky figuring out who's good and who's not in a particular asset class and at a given level when there are dozens of firms out there.

 

For credit you want to talk to the guys at Hinton Rose. They seem to know everyone in the credit HF space in London. With +15 years experience I am guessing you are early 40s? Tough job market at the moment given Brexit and covid so best of luck with your search.

 

Thanks.

Yep, am under no illusions. The sweet spot has always been 2-5 years' experience with plenty of supply and demand, relatively speaking.
