Supporting every step of your private credit recruitment journey
The Netherlands offers a strong environment for private credit. The market combines established financial institutions with alternative lenders and investment groups, creating steady demand for people who understand structured lending and European credit flows. Selby Jennings works closely within this setting, providing us access to professionals who know Dutch regulation, local business behaviour, and cross-border credit activity. This makes the Netherlands a practical base for firms that need sharp technical skills and consistent execution in their private credit teams.
Diverse pool of private credit talent
The Dutch market attracts professionals from across Europe, which creates a broad mix of experience across private credit, direct lending, and debt. Many candidates have worked on non-bank investments and European-wide transactions, giving them a balanced view of risk and commercial opportunity. This range allows us to match you with people who meet technical expectations and align naturally with your organisation’s culture.
Specialised knowledge in private credit lending
Private credit in the Netherlands requires a clear understanding of the needs of small and medium businesses, direct lending structures, and regulatory and risk frameworks. We work with candidates who can run detailed credit assessments, structure deals suited to local and regional markets, and manage portfolios with accuracy. You gain access to professionals who bring strategic thinking as well as strong technical execution.
Personalised private credit recruitment
We build each search around your hiring priorities. Our work spans direct lending, mezzanine financing, distressed debt, and structured credit. We focus on cultural alignment, long-term contribution, and the operational demands of the Dutch credit market. This approach supports the creation of stable teams that can adapt and grow as conditions change.
Long-term partnerships
Our relationship does not stop after the hire. We offer guidance on compensation trends across the Netherlands, diversity planning, and market developments that affect private credit firms. As your organisation evolves, we stay involved, helping you add capability, identify future leaders, and respond to changing talent requirements. This long-term support helps you build a strong and resilient private credit function in the Dutch market.
