Mercer Bradley: Specialists in Financial Recruitment and Job Fit Analysis
Businesses today are deeply engaged in the war for talent, especially accounting talent. The fallout of the US Sarbanes Oxley Act, Bill 52-109, will ultimately impact all Canadian public reporting companies. We will soon see a new baseline for all accountants as Canadian GAAP migrates to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Demographic factors show that almost a third of the accounting population will retire soon, and with growing demand, current accounting student enrolment is insufficient. What does this all mean?
The savvy hiring manager recognizes the value that a professional recruiting firm brings by tapping into the "hidden" candidate market, the calibre of candidates represented, the efficiency of focusing internal resources on business issues, the cost effectiveness of finding the right resources quickly and the flexibility available with contract and/or full-time placement services.
Let us partner with you in finding top finance and accounting talent.
Placement Services
Read about how one of our Staffing Professionals can find the right candidate for you.
Mercer Bradley employs Staffing Professionals who have a depth-in accounting knowledge gained directly from their work in industry accounting departments and/or experience as a financial staffing professional. As such, we are well qualified to represent professionals whose work experience includes roles ranging from Clerk, to Senior Financial Analyst, to Controller and Chief Financial Officer.
Our service fees are on a contingent basis which means that we will conduct a search with no cost, obligation or risk to you. Only when you successfully hire our referred candidate does our fee become payable.
Job Fit Analysis
We are Certified Providers of Prevue Assessments and offer you a "Job Fit" Package which is invaluable to strengthen your hiring decisions, help to reduce turnover, aid in employee performance coaching, and help you to promote the right staff at the right time.
As industry research indicates, often, employees are hired based on skill but then fired on fit! A recent Harvard Business study found that employers using a Job Fit Tool cut employee turnover by more than 50% within six months of beginning the program.
The Prevue Assessment tool can greatly increase your odds of hiring the candidate with both the desired skills and the right personality.
