Hudson, the global recruitment company, has promoted Andy Rogerson (pictured right) to head up its UK and Ireland business.

He replaces John Rose (pictured left), its UK and Ireland CEO since 2004, who has resigned to take up another position.

Christine Raynaud, president of Hudson Europe, said: “Andy has proven his great ability to lead a business faced with strategic challenges in a changing recruitment landscape. I have no doubt that he will rise to this new challenge and take Hudson’s twelve businesses in the UK and Ireland to new heights. I would like to thank John Rose for the commitment he has shown in leading and developing a very successful business in the UK and Ireland, and wish him all the best in his future career.”
