James Pang

Director – Accounting & Finance, and Finance Transformation

After growing up in Yorkshire, James studied economics at the University of Edinburgh, and upon graduating, landed a position working in credit risk at the Royal Bank of Scotland. However, it wasn’t long before the sunny shores of Australia beckoned – and in 2010, James took the plunge and moved to Sydney. After taking a job with Macquarie Bank, James saw the scope that a recruitment career could offer and joined a leading global form, where he quickly realised he’d found his niche.

Since then, James has built a strong reputation and solid network, largely due to his focus on enduring long-term relationships. He has also developed a deep understanding of the technical nuances of more complex finance and treasury roles, and the commercial context in which they sit. A member of Lanson since 2021, he is relishing the opportunity to help build the business and its culture from the ground up, and help clients and candidates form connections that bring enduring value to everyone.
