Industrial & Manufacturing

The shift of manufacturing operations from developed to developing countries has been significant in shaping the industry and has placed new pressures and priorities on the hiring needs of the players in this sector. Qualified and experienced management talent is often in short supply locally and the regulatory demands in terms of compliance for health and safety and ethical operations are increasingly stringent. ConnectedSearch has a balanced practice in this field, sourcing in both local markets to identify the top talent for our clients and also regionally and globally to bring international experience to support the development of the industry and allow companies to create a positive training, development and succession environment for local employees.
