William Alexander Recruitment

About the Company

William Alexander is a specialist technology and change recruitment agency, working in the London insurance and financial services markets.

IT and transformation programmes tend to need a blend of highly skilled contractors and permanent staff, so we specialise in both.

We were founded in 2010 by Will and Alex (do you see what they did there?) who still lead the business today. They had worked together in another recruitment consultancy and wanted to strike out on their own, believing they could offer a superior service to clients and candidates alike.

We’ve since grown to 30+ staff with offices in London and Brighton and a client list that reads like a who’s who of Lloyd's of London. Many members of the team have been with us for over twelve years, which gives continuity and expertise to clients. It’s also testament to the special culture we’ve built over the years.

Our unique access to the specialist skills needed in this regulated sector, together with an ethos of “measure twice, build once” has seen us placed in Recruiter Magazine’s Hot100 nine times.

William Alexander is part of Wellcombe Group, together with sister company Stellarmann, a specialist technology and change professional services provider.
