Hi, I'm Roy Duncan founder of RGDuncan. After an entrepreneurial start to my work life and then a career in business and finance, I set up RGDuncan in 2004 to provide a high quality bespoke finance recruitment service targeted towards businesses recruiting for senior finance roles such as finance director, financial controller and finance manager.
We work with owners, investors, CEOs and FDs who need to get it right when hiring for key finance roles. As specialist finance recruitment consultants, we are typically contacted by businesses, based in London and throuughout the UK who want to get it absolutely right when hiring for a senior financial or accounting roles, eg CFO, finance director, financial controller or finance manager.
The way we work centres around identifying and meeting your specific needs, to deliver a shortlist of interviewed, high calibre candidates, all fitting your agreed criteria. A typical time scale is 2-4 weeks from instruction to shortlist. We work with honesty and openness, believing the 'best fit' - and one that's most likely to last - is where your requirements most closely match those of the candidate.
In the unlikely event that the person that we have introduced proves unable to do the job effectively during the first three months following the date of commencement in the position and you decide not to retain the chosen candidate, you will be entitled to a like-for-like replacement candidate without further charge.
Our personal approach ensures the 'best fit' - a position that matches your technical ability, personality, individual circumstances and long-term ambitions. Professional, confident, qualified, part-qualified and qualified by experienced accountants with stable backgrounds who can make a difference.

Having been placed in my current role by Roy some years ago, I’ve experienced his careful and thorough candidate assessment at first hand, and so it gives me confidence and trust in him to source the most appropriate candidates. During the past six years Roy has successfully sourced candidates to fill financial accounting roles within my firm, and on each occasion the service provided has been excellent. Roy understands how our business operates and the technical aspects of the roles, he instinctively recognises the personality and work ethic required from the candidates to ensure a seamless

Roy Duncan took great care to understand our organisation, the requirements of the role and how an individual needed to fit into an existing team. The investment in Roy's services was worth the time saved filtering a large number of applicants and identifying a suitable short list. We successfully recruited a new addition to the Accounts Team who has made a strong contribution and will remain a long term employee by being a great fit with the team.

We recruited our Senior Financial Controller via Roy Duncan. He took the time to understand our company and its culture before starting his search. Not only did he put candidates forward with the right technical skills but also the right aptitudes and attitudes, to enable us to find the right candidate. 2 years on, our Financial Controller is still with us and has recently been promoted, so all in all we are very pleased with Roy's services and would use him again when we make our next financial hire.

Positive: Professionalism
Roy Duncan provided us with a strong list of candidates for the Financial Controller role we were recruiting for. He carried out the first interviews and vetted them to check their qualifications and for any adverse judgements. We were pleased with the person we appointed and Roy deserves credit for that.
