Recruiting for banks and insurance companies
Interim Recruiting | Recruiting on Demand | Recruiting Consulting – KPI-based, fast and without high headhunter commission.
We fill white-collar positions in Germany up to 60 % cheaper than traditional recruitment agencies.
– Plannable staffing with weekly reports & KPIs (time-to-hire, response rate).
– Scalable for high demand in banking & insurance – also FinTech, WealthTech & InsurTech.
– Over 10 years of experience: 150+ customers in the DACH region, success rate ~90 %
We are the partner for customized recruiting solutions for banks and insurance companies.
The candidate market for banks and insurance companies in particular is often local and therefore very tight – and the requirements are increasing. White collar roles often have to be filled in parallel, while digitalization (Fin/Wealth/InsurTech) requires new skillsets.
Our approach: data-driven & human. We combine active sourcing, clear process management and KPI reporting. This means you get suitable profiles quickly (first ones usually after approx. 10 days) and retain full control with dashboard & weekly reports. We complete many projects with a ~90% success rate.

Experience recruiting on a new level - with Kooku at your side!
Many companies are familiar with this: impersonal headhunters, interchangeable candidate proposals and lengthy processes without any real commitment. At Kooku, we take a different approach. We don’t see ourselves as a traditional recruitment agency, but as an extension of your HR team, with real responsibility and a clear goal: to fill your white-collar positions sustainably.
What our customers say
“We are very satisfied throughout with the approximately one-year collaboration with Kooku. We would particularly like to emphasize the successful support in filling positions with special requirements, both in terms of the difficulty and criticality of the roles. The proposed candidates were always a perfect fit and received excellent support – from the initial contact to the signing of the contract. We as a company also found the support to be extremely professional, appreciative and trusting. The regular, weekly exchanges played a key role in ensuring that we were always transparently informed and were able to make the right decisions together. We greatly appreciate the cooperation on an equal footing and can recommend Kooku without reservation.”
How realistic is your staffing in the banking and insurance environment?
The candidate market in areas such as risk, compliance, underwriting or banking operations is narrower than it appears at first glance. Our candidate market analysis shows you transparently how many suitable specialists are available, which requirements are realistic and how much time you should allow for a successful recruitment.
