Corp dev recruiters in London

Based on the most helpful WSO content, for corporate development (Corp Dev) and strategy roles in London, the recruitment scene isn't as widely discussed as private equity (PE) recruitment. However, some of the headhunters that are known for PE roles also cover corporate strategy and development positions. Here are a few firms that you might consider:

• Walker Hamill is known to cover a range of finance roles, including corporate development.
• Dartmouth Partners often recruits for strategic positions, though they are more focused on investment banking.
• Arkesden also has a strong presence in investment banking recruitment but may have leads in corporate development as well.

It's worth noting that the corporate development scene in London is significant, with opportunities available in both F100 and F500 companies. Moving from IBD to corporate development is a common path, and it's possible after an associate stint.

For more tailored information, it would be beneficial to reach out to these firms directly or network with professionals in the field to get insights into other recruitment firms that specialize in corporate development roles in London and Europe. Networking is key in this area, as many roles are filled through connections and not always publicly advertised.
