We at Harry Sturm Associates Inc. pride ourselves on being the Executive Recruiter of choice for an exclusive group of European Banking clients in New York City who request from us the best talent available to achieve their significant international goals.

We are also sought out by a rapidly growing number of financial professionals, who appreciate career development partners who understand the banking business first-hand and are fully aware of the potential rewards, challenges and risk in an ever changing international banking environment. 

Our expertise covers all those areas of the financial industry where highly skilled specialists make success happen, such as in Business Development, Structured Finance, Corporate Finance, Trading, Risk Management, Controlling, Accounting, Compliance and Human Resources.  We have also placed numerous experts in Operational and Administrative Functions whenever particular technical or language skills were required.  Over the last few years we have developed a special niche in Commercial Real Estate Finance, where we have successfully found new homes for Origination Teams, Relationship Managers, Credit Risk Managers, and Support Analysts. 

As a boutique search firm, we at Harry Sturm Associates differentiate ourselves from the competition by fully understanding our clients’ and candidates’ wants and needs, because we have been there ourselves.  As experienced bankers who have worked and lived in Europe and the US for many years we appreciate the cultural and business differences between European Head Offices and their US satellites.  We add substantial value by building the bridge in the communication between European managers with their specific contexts and candidates who often come from a very different cultural background.
