Pensions and financial services recruitment firm Zatori has completed a share buy-back with co-founder Martin Wigfield taking full ownership of the business.

Zatori – founded in 2018 by Wigfield alongside Kathy Harmer and Adrian Dalby as investors – serves the pensions, wealth management, financial services and governance recruitment markets.

Wigfield said the buy-back was a "natural progression" for the business and would provide the firm with clarity and focus for the future – allowing it to deliver even greater value to its clients.

He said: "Zatori has always been founded on the principle of adding real value to clients navigating the challenges of talent attraction and retention within highly niche marketplaces. There is no shortage of competitors in this space, so achieving independence after just six full trading years is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team over the years.

"None of this would have been possible without the support of our clients and talent pools. To everyone who has supported us in the first chapter of our journey, thank you. Your trust and backing have been invaluable."
