FROM OCTOBER 2015’s RECRUITER MAGAZINE

Global talent consultancy Spengler Fox seeks to spread its partnership network to Japan and Australia over the next couple of years.

Previously part of the Grafton Employment Group, the firm operates with partnership organisations across consumer goods, life science, technology and industry manufacturing. Extending this network to Asia-Pacific is the firm’s next step, Spengler Fox chairman Mark Hamill (right) told Recruiter.

US and Europe-based clients seek to build their businesses in those areas of Asia-Pacific specifically, Hamill said. A partnership rather than an organic expansion of Spengler Fox is preferable, he said, as the firm does not have the local knowledge or insight that recruiters operating in the region would have.

Both partners would benefit from an internal fee share agreement of around 25-30% depending upon how the candidate was referred. 

He said he would be selective in choosing potential partners for the firm to work with.
