Rec-to-Rec consultancy Fresh Partnership has announced the “imminent” launch of an international division, Fresh International R2R.

Director Matthew Wilson tells Recruiter that the company has already been recruiting internationally for some time; “but it’s now become evident that we need to focus our efforts a little more.”

Fresh International will be particularly involved in the Europe, Middle East and Asia (EMEA) and Asia-Pacific (APAC) regions, and will be taking on one new staff member in Q1 2012, with further hires to follow.

Wilson tells Recruiter the company will be working with big name firms as well as smaller and less well-known firms as it expands its international operations.
