About Morton Moore

A senior team with deep knowledge of South African financial services.

Morton Moore is a specialist financial services recruitment firm built by people who have worked inside the industry. Every consultant on our team has passed the Insurance Regulatory Exam (RE5), and that technical base shows up in every shortlist we send out. We focus on senior placements across Insurance, Banking and Wealth, with a particular strength in Underwriting and Claims at the senior and head of department level.

Our Approach

Specialists, not generalists.

We focus on three sectors: Insurance, Banking, and Wealth and Investment Management. We work with a carefully chosen list of clients. That focus means we know the people, the products and the regulatory landscape behind every hire.

Because our consultants are RE5 qualified, we do not just match keywords. We assess candidates against the technical, regulatory and behavioural standards your business is actually held to. We understand the difference between a Category I representative, a Key Individual and a fully FAIS licensed professional, and we screen accordingly.

The result is a shorter shortlist, a higher conversion rate and placements that stay.

Our biggest focus area is senior Underwriting and Claims across Corporate, Personal and Business lines. We place experienced Underwriters, Claims Administrators, Branch Managers, Heads of Underwriting, Heads of Claims and executive leadership for Insurers and Brokers across South Africa.
