Strategic Consulting for IT & Operations

Strategic and operational consulting, built by industry practitioners

We support financial institutions with high-impact IT and operations consulting, combining deep industry knowledge with hands-on execution.

Our consultants come from leading banks and asset managers and understand both regulatory constraints and operational realities. We help organisations strengthen their IT, data and operational functions, accelerate transformation programmes, and bring clarity and structure to complex environments.

For critical periods, we also provide interim leadership. Our transition managers act as CTOs, COOs, CFOs or CDOs, stepping in quickly to stabilise operations, secure key projects and restore momentum. They integrate rapidly, deliver from day one, and ensure a structured and efficient handover.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about working with Skilencia

What makes Skilencia different from other consulting or recruitment firms?

We combine consulting, recruitment and SAAS technology within a single structure, allowing us to support financial institutions across strategy, execution and regulatory requirements.

Our teams come from senior roles inside banks, asset managers and financial services companies, which gives us a deep understanding of operational realities. This integration of human expertise and technology enables us to deliver solutions that are both practical and immediately applicable in highly regulated environments.

We operate across the entire financial ecosystem, covering all types of roles (Operations, IT, compliance, legal, data, reporting) and all levels of seniority, from specialised experts to executive leadership. Our scope spans banking, asset management, private assets, insurance, fintech and financial software providers, with the ability to work on both local and international mandates.

Our SAAS solution is not a simple tool but a all in one plateform where the financial entities can benefit from technology and outsourcing, with a strong expertise on their business. More than a Dora compliance tool it is an operational SRM dedicated to financial entities.
