HARP wallen recruitment opens Hong Kong office
HARP wallen Executive Recruitment has expanded into Asia, opening an office in Hong Kong.
HARP wallen Asia will be headed by Hong Kong-based managing director Ian Stazicker, who will work closely with group managing director Kristina Wallen and her team in London.
From its base in Hong Kong, the new Asia business will cover large parts of the region, including Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, China and Japan.
"I am delighted that HARP wallen is expanding into this increasingly important global region, as we enter our 23rd year of trading in the UK," said Wallen. "Over the past couple years, we have seen an increase in demand from our existing clients who are looking to expand operations in the region."
Stazicker is the founder and managing director of Nelian Consulting. "The combination of Ian’s skills and resources in the region, our recruitment skills honed over more than 20 years, and the growing need to source talented travel, hospitality and tourism candidates, means this is a great time for us to launch HARP wallen Asia," added Wallen.
"All these elements have conspired to create a real demand for an experienced, specialist, boutique recruiter in the Asia Pacific region."
Stazicker added: "Having seen a gap in the market for a specialist executive recruiter to meet the growing demands of my client-base in APAC, it made complete sense to align myself with HARP wallen, who enjoy an unrivalled established reputation for delivering quality service to both clients and candidates alike.
"Having been on both sides of that coin with the HARP wallen team in the past, it made complete sense to come together to leverage our global networks and taking the HARP wallen brand to APAC at this dynamic time in the region."
