About Cognesis
We are Cognesis. Straightforward, honest, and built on trust.
Since 2006, Cognesis has partnered with organisations operating in environments where the quality of every appointment matters.
Our business was founded on a simple belief: exceptional organisations are built by exceptional people.
Today, we bring that same philosophy to Financial Services.
A second generation,
the same commitment to our clients.

Frances Savage
Director, Banking & Financial Services
Alongside our CEO and Director, our Financial Services practice is supported by experienced researchers, talent advisors, and industry associates. Together, they extend our reach across the market and help us stay responsive to clients and candidates.
Our Values
Transparency
We tell you what’s really happening, whether it’s good news or none yet. No spin, and no silence when things go quiet.
Innovation
We bring a genuinely different lens to search, shaped by real industry experience rather than a standard recruiter’s playbook.
Compassion
Every candidate is a person making a real decision about their career. We treat that with the care it deserves, not as a transaction.
Respect
For clients’ time, for candidates’ careers, and for the confidentiality every search deserves.
