Cobalt is a leading specialist recruitment provider to the Property, Construction & Engineering and Financial Services & Accounting sectors. We recruit professionals from our offices in the UK, Europe, Asia and New Zealand for clients ranging from large corporate organisations to niche entrepreneurial entities, as well as into the public sector.

Consultants at Cobalt have an impressive knowledge of their specialist sectors, often having been attracted to Cobalt directly from industry as well as from other recruitment and search consultancies.

Within Property, we recruit all types of professionals spanning the full property lifecycle, our Financial Services & Accounting teams recruit Real Estate Bankers on the lending and restructuring side as well as Corporate Accounting functions and Management Accountants. The Construction & Engineering teams are technically and commercially focused, recruiting professionals in areas such as Costs and Project Management, Architecture, Town Planning and Facilities Management, as well as a wide range of Engineering disciplines.

We recruit at all levels from recently qualified professional to Board Director through executive search, our market-leading propriety database and advertising in leading industry publications for both permanent and interim opportunities.

Our in-depth market knowledge not only attracts top-tier candidates but also enables us to advise our clients on the most appropriate recruitment approach to take with complimentary advice on remuneration and retention.

Our Relationships
Cobalt establishes strong relationships, and over time we are able to develop a deep understanding of our clients’ cultures and strategic objectives. This knowledge gives us a unique ability to recruit at all professional levels, adding immediate and long-term value to our clients.

Most managers need to hire a solid team member and view recruitment as a necessary evil as they would rather get on with their day jobs without having their time wasted by viewing irrelevant CVs.

Our recruitment service is effective and delivered by true sector specialists. Employers who work with us immediately notice the difference and we quickly understand their needs. Our proactive consultants often go on to build great long term relationships with our clients and have in some cases hired whole teams.

Consultants at Cobalt have an impressive knowledge of their specialist area, having been attracted to Cobalt either directly from the Real Estate or Finance industries or from other specialist recruitment consultancies. As individuals, we are passionate about the sectors in which we work and about forming lasting, productive relationships; these drivers are highly evident in the way that we approach our work and ultimately the unrivalled success we achieve.

Cobalt specialises in the recruitment of all professional disciplines within the Property, Construction & Engineering and Financial Services & Accounting industries in the UK, Europe, Asia Pacific region and beyond. This is undertaken through specialist teams with functional and regional expertise.
