About Reid Ashby

A new kind of BA recruitment firm

Reid Ashby was built on a simple idea: recruitment for Business Analysts should be handled by people who actually understand what the role involves.

Our Story

Why we started Reid Ashby

Most recruiters treat "Business Analyst" as a single job title, when in reality it spans a dozen different skill sets, seniorities and specialisms. We started Reid Ashby to take that difference seriously.

We're a new firm, built deliberately small — every brief is handled personally, with the kind of attention that gets lost once an agency scales past a certain size.

Our aim is simple: become the firm hiring managers call first when they need a Business Analyst who can actually do the job, and the firm analysts trust with their next move.

What We Stand For

Principles that endure

Precision

We match candidates against the real requirements of the role, not just keywords on a CV.

Transparency

Honest, direct communication with clients and candidates — including when the answer isn't what you want to hear.

Partnership

We take on fewer briefs so that a founder is involved personally, from first conversation to first day.

Longevity

We aim to measure success by whether a placement is still thriving well beyond the start date, not just the day the offer is signed.
