Rob and Dev have successfully worked together at Austin Benn between 2009-13. Sharing the same ethos, they joined forces in 2016, intending to be greater than the sum of their parts to provide expertise and value to their clients and candidates.
Rob Alldritt – Director
After graduating, Rob began his career at JPMorgan in a cash management operational role, then moved into line management before transitioning into a Relationship Manager role within Treasury Services. In 2007, he switched careers to Financial Services recruitment, learning his trade in the challenging landscape of the financial downturn.
During this time, he has built a client franchise of Research and Consulting firms focusing on sales and analyst mandates. Rob is passionate about offering a high-touch recruitment service and launched Delectus Partners in 2015, recognising there is a gap for a boutique agency that provides a different approach to a high-volume agency or a “retainer only” executive search firm. In March 2016, Rob hired Dev Majithia, whom he previously collaborated with at Austin Benn between 2009-13.
Outside work, Rob is an avid record collector of rare disco and house music and a semi-retired DJ
Dev Majithia – Associate Director
After graduating, Dev has over twenty-five years of experience in recruitment for financial services. Dev has recruited successfully through several economic cycles and changes within the financial landscape. He has recently partnered with clients to improve their ESG credentials in a corporate and investment capacity.
Dev’s work has helped him develop a loyal client network and a healthy referral flow.
Dev’s earlier interest rate trading and treasury career with Barclays and Royal Bank of Canada have given him a sound knowledge foundation that helps him understand requirements. This also allows him to recruit beyond job titles and add value to clients and candidates.
Dev is a certified Thomas International Personal Profile Analysis (PPA) user.
Dev loves playing, coaching (ECB Level 2 qualified), watching and listening to cricket. He is a limited batsman and second change in-swing bowler. He also loves playing padel. In 2018, he was a contestant on the BBC quiz show Pointless.
Matthew Braddock – Consultant
Matt has been with Delectus Partners since early 2023, pivoting from a long dual career in events and working in PM and AM roles in multiple digital agencies.
He is building a desk at Delectus working alongside financial and HR technology businesses in hiring top-performing sales talent.
Outside work, Matt is a Dad of two young boys, a keen runner having run 10 marathons, and enjoys many of the pleasures that London brings.
