The only search firm built entirely around Post Trade

TMP is the executive search firm built exclusively for the Post Trade ecosystem, one market, covered in full.

We place C-suite and senior leadership across global custodians, fund administrators, market infrastructure firms, including CSDs and CCPs, and the technology and data businesses that underpin how markets settle, clear and operate. Not a vertical. Not a practice area within a broader capital markets offering.

Every mandate is partner-led from the first conversation to final placement. The partners who win the search are the partners who run it, every candidate conversation, every piece of market intelligence. There is no handoff.

Intelligence & Strategy

Search is only part of what clients get. Working in a single market means every mandate adds to the picture; talent availability, compensation, organisational structures, and where the next generation of leadership is coming from. We put that intelligence to work as strategic advisory alongside search.

Our network has been earned over decades in Post Trade. It gives clients access to leaders who never surface through conventional recruitment channels, including talent from adjacent sectors that a like-for-like search would miss.

Why Post Trade

Post Trade is the infrastructure global markets depend on. Every trade, in every asset class, relies on it being settled, cleared, safeguarded and reported, and the organisations doing that work face constant regulatory, technological and competitive change. Leading in this industry takes people who understand how the machinery actually works.

TMP’s roots are in the broader capital markets, and years of search across that landscape showed us where our depth counts most. So we made a deliberate choice: to focus the entire firm on Post Trade. It’s the world we know the way its leaders do, who’s building what, where the pressure sits, and which people can actually deliver, and that kind of knowledge only comes from full commitment.
