The experts

Our Financial Crime & Fraud Team

Andy Hodson was the first consultant to join MERJE back in 2012. His many years with the business, now fortified with the expertise of Emilia, Jimmy and Pritesh, as well as the resourcing skills of Sam, has made this team incredibly capable when it comes to Financial Crime & Fraud recruitment.

Whether you’re looking for permanent or interim, candidates or opportunities, anywhere in the UK (and occasionally Europe) or even if you don’t quite know what you need just yet, they can point you in the right direction.

​I have had contact with MERJE for at least two years and they successfully placed me into a fixed term contract. They were very informative and straight forward to deal with and simply couldn't do enough to ensure everything went smoothly, which as a candidate is immensely helpful. Since moving on they have maintained regular contact to advise me of upcoming opportunities and offer any support, which really sets MERJE apart from a lot of their competitors. I just wish they could place me in all of my fixed term contracts! ​

​Pritesh is easily the best recruiter that I have worked with. He understood exactly what we were looking for as his client and introduced us to excellent candidates. Pritesh is personable and delivers high-quality service, and I look forward to working with him again.

​I highly recommend Andy as a recruitment consultant having worked together for a couple of years now. Andy not only recruited me into my current role but also now assists me with the recruitment of candidates into my team, putting forward only those candidates who closely match our requirements. Andy has excellent people skills, is trustworthy, honest, very proficient, helpful, and a good negotiator with quick and accurate responses.
