Buy side recruitment FAQs
Singapore itself is the core financial hub, serving as a gateway to Southeast Asia for global asset managers, private equity firms, hedge funds, and insurers. Selby Jennings supports clients across the city, connecting firms with professionals who drive growth in this highly competitive market.
Asset management, private equity, hedge funds, insurance, and wealth management are the most active. Singapore is also a leader in ESG and sustainable finance within Asia, with many global firms setting up their regional ESG headquarters here.
Hiring timelines can extend due to competition for bilingual English-Mandarin professionals, strict regulatory requirements, and notice periods that usually last one to three months. Selby Jennings shortens these timelines by connecting firms with pre-vetted candidates, including talent not actively searching in the open market.
Portfolio management, ESG and sustainable finance expertise, private equity and venture capital experience, quantitative analysis, and compliance with MAS (Monetary Authority of Singapore) regulations are highly sought. Cross-border investment expertise is also valuable given Singapore’s role as a regional hub.
We combine local expertise in Singapore’s financial market with global reach. Our consultants provide compensation insights, hiring trend analysis, and tailored recruitment strategies, helping firms secure professionals who meet both technical and cultural requirements for long-term success.
