Finance recruitment in Bath.
Accountancy and finance hiring across Bath and North East Somerset. Giles lives in Bath, and it's where we put our time outside work too.
What we see in Bath.
Bath's finance teams span professional services, growing private businesses and larger international organisations. Finance Managers and Management Accountants who can combine reporting, forecasting and commercial conversations are particularly relevant to the roles we see. Candidates often ask about flexibility, progression and how much scope they'll have in the role.
We've recently worked on a Finance Manager role for a professional services business in central Bath, a Finance Director hire for a law firm, and a Management Accountant role for a growing international business. In November 2025 we also hosted 25 Bath business leaders at Dukes Bath for "Beyond Limits", and our 2026 charity partner is Genesis Trust in Bath. More on that.
