You need the best finance professionals working for you

to drive business success.

Where are you going to find them? Classified ads? Job boards? The cousin of

a colleague who used to work in the industry? You need more than resumes.

You need talent.

We know where and how to find the finance talent

you need to deliver results.

Our finance recruiters are experts in matching transcendent talent

with forward-thinking companies. We help you find the people who set your numbers and those who ensure

that you achieve them.

How do we accomplish what others can’t?

First, we listen. Then we get to know you.

Through deep and objective research into your organization, we get to know you better than anyone. To serve as your premier finance recruiting partner, we want to know more than simply what the job entails. We do our own exhaustive research and work closely with you to understand your strategic objectives, your culture, your areas of expertise, and how a premier recruiting firm can help you solve current problems and achieve long-term strategic goals and financial success. Upon completion of our research and analysis, we begin our search for the best candidate to fill your needs.

We work with knowledge, speed, and confidentiality.

Our finance recruiters discretely assist top companies to find and hire transcendent finance talent. More importantly, we only place people in situations that make the most sense. A wrong fit may yield a fee, but not a long-term relationship. Our detailed interviewing process enables Lucas Group to precisely match qualifications, cultural fit, and long-term compatibility, and it ensures lasting and successful placements for both clients and candidates. We’re in this for the long haul, and we’ll work diligently to become a seamless, accessible, and complementary partner to your company – helping you achieve increasingly aggressive business goals.

Our long-term approach separates us from the competition.

We understand our clients and the candidates, and we appreciate that hiring decisions impact people, companies, families, and careers. Everything we do reflects our deep understanding of the executive recruiting process and the critical importance of each placement for both our clients and the candidates they seek. We are interested in more than one placement. We are interested in becoming your seamless executive recruiting partner. Because of that philosophy, we treat our clients and our candidates with professional courtesy and discretion at every point in our relationship.

Your company’s future is too important to trust to anyone but

Lucas Group.

You want the best. You want it quickly. And you want your next hire to drive business success. You don’t just need

access to candidates. You need talented, highly-qualified, game-

changing employees.

An uncertain marketplace, however, presents opportunities for savvy companies.

Better People; Better Processes;

Better Finance Results

It’s not easy to become a Lucas Group finance recruiter. But once hired, our recruiters receive the finest, most systematic training in the industry.

All Lucas Group finance recruiters have the intellectual horsepower and nimbleness to anticipate and react to dynamic situations. They are true multi-taskers, capable of navigating the vagaries of the hiring process, in a fast and effective fashion.

We don’t do “on-the-job” training. Our training process begins with a highly regimented, 30-day, 28-point on-boarding process at both our corporate headquarters in Atlanta and at individual home offices. We utilize 12 training modules that teach best practices in everything from the psychology of the recruiting process to integrating technology. We then match new recruiters with an experienced veteran who mentors them in the nuances of success. We continue their training through in-house and on-line training programs throughout their first year in the industry and throughout their entire career at Lucas Group. We take a highly structured approach and focus our training on forging outstanding recruiting teams.

At Lucas Group, we’re not simply a collection of independent contractors. We are an integrated recruiting team that can maximize your hiring efforts in finance… or any other recruiting expertise you need.

The Lucas Group culture and methodologies drive superior

business results for our clients.

Why? Because we hire the best recruiters in the industry; we continuously train and educate

them to improve; we employ sophisticated and effective technology to enhance their skills; and

we have a business philosophy that puts our clients above everything else.

The quality of the people we hire is the differentiator.

We have a track record of hiring successful people with the intellectual maturity to thrive in finance. Unlike others, we don’t hire in volume

and weed people out through competitive attrition. Lucas Group hires proven, business-

savvy, consultative people with a track record of success. They have solid academic and

professional credentials; ethics and integrity; and strong, collaborative personalities.

We augment outstanding human capital with outstanding technology.

We employ the finest recruiting candidate tracking system on the market.

This database includes comprehensive information on people who are not actively searching for work but are receptive to entertaining just the right offer. You won’t find these people through many of our competitors, and you certainly won’t ever see them on a job board. But we know who they are; where they are; and what it would take to interest them to take the next step in their career. Job boards don’t find great candidates, Lucas Group finance recruiters do.

Lucas Group has made a significant investment in technology. But the key is the integration of the technology with the business knowledge our recruiters have to make your recruiting more efficient and effective. Additionally, we have a highly visible presence in the world of social media; including LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and other sites where professionals connect.

Lots of recruiting companies have tools.

It’s how we integrate them that makes a positive difference for our clients.

We are experts in the areas of finance, private equity, strategy, M&A, and treasury.

From Fortune 500 corporations to small, privately-held firms, we work to find transcendent, executive talent in such diverse areas as:

� Financial Analysis/Planning/Forecasting

� Mergers and Acquisitions

� Strategic Planning and Corporate Development

� Treasury Capital Markets

� Hedge Fund/Asset Management/Portfolio Finance

� You will have a consistent and personal point of contact throughout the entire process. We don’t fly a team in for the presentation and then turn the process over to people in the back office to manage the search. The recruiter you meet at the beginning of your Lucas Group relationship will be the person who works with you through the entire recruiting and hiring process.

� We will ask good questions and listen better than any other executive recruiter.

� You will receive premium consultative service and no sales pressure.

� We will use the depth and breadth of Lucas Group specialization to find transcendent talent in any industry. Looking for a Senior Financial Analyst in Chicago? We can do that. Need a VP for Strategic Planning and Corporate Development in New York? We can do that too. If you have multiple hiring needs, Lucas Group can be your sole-source executive recruiting partner.

� You will receive continuous communication, thoughtful analysis, and the benefit of our consistent adherence to Lucas Group premier processes and methodologies that achieve business results for your company or firm.

For each interaction you have with us, we guarantee that:

You Succeed: We Succeed.

We have a different perspective on how to be successful in the finance marketplace and in executive recruiting as a whole.

By helping our clients succeed, our success will take care of itself. As a corollary, we believe in treating our clients the way we like to be treated.

For a recent training event, Lucas Group invited a senior executive from one of the world’s leading luxury hospitality companies to share his knowledge on how to anticipate and surpass client expectations. Our focus on long-term client satisfaction is sincere and ongoing, and it separates Lucas Group from the field.

We have long-term client relationships forged by long-tenured recruiters. Such an approach makes sense for us and makes Lucas Group unique in the recruiting industry.

At Lucas Group, we are redefining the executive recruiting experience through the use of market data, analytics, and consistent and candid communication.

We have experience, breadth, and in-house research capabilities, all focused on finding the perfect candidate for your company or firm.
