Positioning

Chartered Partners is a retained executive search firm for the accounting-firm disciplines: audit and assurance, tax, corporate finance and advisory, and risk and internal audit. It places partners, teams, and senior practitioners into advisory and accounting firms, and finance and controls leaders into corporates, across Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney, Dubai, and London.

Problem

The senior end of the accounting profession is information-asymmetric and reputation-sensitive. Partner and team moves turn on confidential, hard-to-source intelligence about who is genuinely movable, on what terms, and against what comparable benchmarks. Most search providers compete on speed of CV flow rather than depth of market understanding.

Product

Bespoke retained search mandates across the audit, tax, corporate finance, and risk practices. Confidential candidate intelligence, with partner-and-team lift-outs as well as individual hires. Salary, jurisdictional, and seniority benchmarking drawn from in-house research. Conducted under Singapore Employment Agency Licence 23S1672.

Revenue model

Retained search fees on completion. Long-term firm relationships rather than transactional volume.

Strategic role

The sister search practice to Search & Counsel. Where Search & Counsel covers investigations and disputes, Chartered Partners covers the accounting-firm disciplines, extending the Feltan search line into the largest professional-services market.
