Dan Morgan
Senior Contract/Interim Accountancy & Finance Recruitment Specialist
With over 8 years' experience in Accountancy & Finance recruitment, Dan specialises in Senior Accountancy & Executive Interim appointments across Northern Ireland, across both Public and Private sector.
Recent Success Stories:
1: Dan was working with a Newly Qualified Accountant who felt stuck and unsure of what they were really capable of achieving. They knew they wanted more, but needed the right opportunity — and a bit of confidence — to take the next step. Within two weeks, Dan secured them a move into a new sector with a larger team, stronger learning environment, and a significant salary increase. At the same time, the hiring organisation had been frustrated with performance within their existing framework and needed a quick, accurate hire. They’ve now welcomed an outstanding individual who’s set to add value from day one. An excellent win for both candidate and client.
2: Dan was working with an experienced senior finance leader who had recently been made redundant and was returning to the Northern Ireland market, still exploring what their next long-term move might look like. A fast-growing software and technology business required an Interim CFO to support a significant period of growth. They needed someone with relevant sector experience who could step in quickly and provide immediate leadership. What followed was a six-day turnaround from initial briefing to first day, including two interviews. The client gained immediate senior-level support during a critical growth phase, while the candidate re-entered a role aligned to their expertise and, following a successful six-month engagement, accepted a permanent offer.
⭐ Client testimonials ⭐
"When we came to VANRATH, we were looking for an experienced Financial Controller — a senior hire, so we needed a recruiter who really understood the role and could screen candidates properly, not just send us a pile of CVs.
Dan Morgan was excellent from start to finish. He took the time to understand exactly what we needed and the type of candidate who'd be the right fit, and his knowledge of the market and candidates really showed in the quality of who he put forward. Communication throughout was great — Dan kept us updated at every stage, and his feedback and insight on each candidate were detailed and genuinely useful in helping us make the right decision.
It was a smooth, well-managed process from beginning to end, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dan and VANRATH to anyone looking to make a senior hire." - CEO, NI Software Company
