About Us
Connecting Talent with Opportunity
M&A Talent Scout is a boutique recruitment consultancy connecting businesses across Ireland with finance professionals in accounting, FP&A, finance operations and finance leadership.
We work with SMEs, PE-backed and owner-managed businesses, as well as larger organisations, recruiting for both permanent and interim finance roles.
Rather than focusing on volume, we prioritise quality, integrity and strong professional relationships, creating thoughtful connections that support business success and long-term career growth.
Our Approach
Recruitment is about more than matching skills with a job description. We take the time to understand the wider picture—from the culture and strategic goals of a business to the experience, motivations and aspirations of each professional.
Our approach is built on four key principles:
-
Clarity — Understanding your requirements, culture and long-term goals.
-
Precision — Carefully selecting professionals based on experience, capability and fit.
-
Partnership — Working closely with clients and candidates throughout the recruitment journey.
-
Honest communication — Keeping clients and candidates informed with clear, straightforward updates.
This allows us to deliver a more personal and considered service while building lasting relationships with the businesses and professionals we support.
Our Specialisations
We specialise in recruitment across four closely connected areas of finance:
-
Finance Operations & Transformation — AP/AR, payroll, credit control, treasury, finance systems, ERP and process change.
-
FP&A & Business Partnering — Planning, forecasting, financial modelling, business partnering and commercial insight.
-
Accounting & Financial Reporting — Financial and management accounting, group and statutory reporting, tax and VAT.
-
Finance Leadership — Financial Controllers, Finance Managers, Heads of Finance, Finance Directors and interim leaders.
Our focused specialisms allow us to understand the skills businesses require and the opportunities finance professionals are looking for.
Our Goal
Our goal is simple: to help businesses build stronger finance teams and connect professionals with opportunities where they can make a meaningful contribution and continue to grow.
