LONDON, Aug. 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Pure Search, a leading global search firm, today announced the launch of Pure Search Financial Services.

The new Financial Services division has recently been strengthened by senior hires John Newstead from Redgrave Partners, Colleen Quilty from Quilty Group, and Adam Scarr from Hays.

Our global senior management team of Simon, Gavin, Liam and Barrie are first class and we have every confidence they can dynamically grow our market share”, said Chris Nelson, co-founder of Pure Search.

Simon Head commented, “this sends the market a strong signal of our intent to build a world class global financial institutions business. Combining the best of Correlate Search UK with the existing global financial services presence of Pure will enable us to offer a complete cross asset, multi-function search capability to our clients throughout Europe, Asia and the US, and we are very excited about the future.”
