Will Farris
Senior Consultant
Will has >7 years Financial Services recruitment experience. He was hired by Shane back in 2018, in a research role, focused purely on candidate sourcing, pipeline building, market mapping and specific targeted searches. Over time, he moved into the buy-side market, specialising in operations hires into the Hedge Fund space.
Fast forward to today, Will is working with Shane and Dom again and in his third year at Attribution Search. Will continues to deepen his relationships in the Hedge Fund space and more recently leads the firms efforts across private and corporate credit. He continues to cover non-investment hires with particular coverage of finance, regulation, risk and operations.
Since joining Attribution Search, Will has tripled his earnings from his previous company.
Will is a rugby fan, having previously played for Canterbury, Kent and Hartpury College, he understands the value of teamwork, collaboration and a strong work ethic, all of which have been critical to his acceleration and personal growth at Attribution Search.
Will also supports Alexandra in some of the non-billing initiatives at Attribution Search to include AI implementation, CRM upgrade and releases and training.
Will studied Sports Science at the University of the West of England and is the proud father of three beautiful children; Arthur, Evelyn and Zara (Z for short!).
