About us

Darwin Rhodes - A Specialist Recruitment Firm

Darwin Rhodes was established in 1996 to serve the insurance and financial services markets. Without exception our competitors of comparable size are subdivisions of generic recruitment firms active simultaneously within wide ranging markets such as secretarial, commercial and IT. We recruit investment and insurance professionals including actuaries, benefit consultants, specialist general insurance staff, investment and compliance specialists and financial advisers. Today we have the largest team of consultants worldwide serving these specialised markets.

Our recruitment consultants develop as specialists within their own fields, working in teams with responsibility for specific markets – Actuarial, Pensions, Investment/Banking, Accounting, General Insurance and Financial Services Distribution. So when an applicant registers a CV or a client registers a vacancy they are guaranteed to speak to a consultant who understands their needs.
