The specialism

We don't recruit across everything. We recruit across finance and accountancy — qualified accountants, audit and tax seniors, part-qualified and transactional staff, and practice professionals.

Why Astilon

A boutique that understands the brief, because it's lived it.

Most recruiters can read a job spec. Fewer can tell a strong audit senior from a stretched one, or know why a CTA matters for that advisory role. We can — because we came from practice.

01 / Niche

A genuine specialism

One field, covered in depth. We know the firms, the qualifications and the realistic salary for a role — so shortlists are accurate, not padded.

02 / Practice-trained

We've done the roles

Our team trained in accountancy practice. We can talk to a candidate about the actual work, and to a partner about the gap they're really trying to fill.

03 / Personal

Personal service

You deal with the consultant, not a call-centre. Honest advice, sensible shortlists, and a reply to every candidate — no exceptions.
