Talent management provider Kenexa has agreed an alliance with Australian recruiter The Brooklyn Group, which expands Kenexa’s presence in the Australian RPO market.

Kenexa says it chose The Brooklyn Group for its expertise in transaction, project and enterprise recruiting services as well as its local leadership.

Phil Stewart, RPO president of Kenexa, says: “This market represents significant opportunities for both companies. Together, we’ll help global and local companies in Australia design and execute their recruitment strategies, leveraging their brands, recruiting technologies and performance.”

Kenexa Brooklyn will be led by Brett Douglas, director of The Brooklyn Group. Douglas previously formed Futurestep’s outsourcing organisation in Australia.
