2000 "Headhunter Time" It's coming round to that time of year again, reports Matthew Montagu-Pollock. Time for financiers to reassess whether their firms are truly meeting career aspirations. Time to consider if there may be more scope, more congenial colleagues, and (heaven forbid) more money to be made, elsewhere. Time for firms to begin looking for post-bonus hires. In other words...HEADHUNTER TIME "Two types of headhunting firms service the upper reaches of the finance industry in Asia. There are the global search firms, including Russell Reynolds, Korn Ferry, Heidrick & Struggles and major new contender, TMP Worldwide. However the vast majority of financial placements in Asia are made by boutiques, which tend to be highly specialized. These firms - such as Search Pacific and Global Sage - concentrate only on finance and focus largely on Asia. Others narrow their area of expertise yet further and focus largely on equities, like Anthony Baillieu and Eban; or debt, such as The Consulting Partnership and O'Neill Associates." |
