"After several years in recruitment, a move to Rutherford really made sense to me. As specialists in the Compliance and Financial Crime space, the area I've spent my career focussed on, there was excellent opportunity to really leverage off each other’s networks to deliver the best service to clients and candidates alike. Rutherford offered me a very good platform to develop a market leading contract and consultancy business within financial services, with a professional and down to earth group of people around me. I'm very much looking forward to growing the portfolio of services we offer, and bringing more attention to the Rutherford brand." ​- Michael Cunningham, Associate Director
