Bangkok Executive Search

Bangkok is a unique and special city yet it presents substantial recruiting challenges for both domestic and multinational corporations looking for the best and brightest.  First, Thailand does not have a deep talent pool of  polished high-level executive recruiters.  This results in companies relying on unskilled and inexperienced individuals taking responsibility for the most important task in any company…recruiting top talent.  Second, many companies have no other choice but to hire Thai nationals for their recruiting department and there is often a significant cultural, educational and life experience gap between recruiters and candidates.

At Bangkok Executive Search, we have senior level executives who have not only worked for multi-national companies, they have also traveled extensively and lived abroad.  This allows us to bring years of global experience to every executive search within Southeast Asia.  Furthermore, we know how to leverage technology and sell opportunities better than any other recruiting firm in Thailand.  It is for these reasons why our clients repeatedly seek us out for every critical opening within their organization.

We Develop Strong Partnerships With Our Clients In Asia

Successful and mutually rewarding relationships are based on trust.  As an executive search firm, we seek out partnerships rather than clients as we believe in building long-term relationships.  In this effort to earn your confidence, we have developed the most unique and compelling search terms in all of Asia.

We view our initial search as an “interview” and an opportunity to illustrate to companies that we mean what we say…”we are the best search firm you will ever work with Southeast Asia”.   The extension and acceptance of an offer by one of our executive candidates will mark your “hiring” of our firm. This means organizations have total flexibility and control throughout the process.

Our Candidates Consistently Deliver Exceptional Results

In building trust with all of our clients, we are able to have open and candid conversations with them and the one thing they all universally agree on is that high performing companies do not use job boards for critical positions.  Why?…..the answer is obvious, people only spend their free time surfing the internet looking for work when they are unemployed, unwanted or underperforming. Also, the most successful and talented people in any industry are always in demand which means they don’t go looking for work, work goes looking for them.

As the highest rated recruiting firm in Thailand, we take great pride in providing clients candidates that only we are able to offer.  This is possible because we only target executives who are employed and recognized as being the best.  However, identifying the top talent in any industry is easy, it’s getting them excited and interested in leaving their rewarding position to go somewhere else which is the hard part and that’s exactly what makes us better than anyone else.

Most Companies Do Not Effectively Sell Opportunities, We Do.

In consulting with clients, we discuss with them how advertising on job board sites target the least attractive candidates in the competitive labor market.  Additionally, we share with organizations the feedback top professionals offer regarding common hiring practices.

One of the tools companies use that successful people strongly dislike are job descriptions. The reason for this is that most job descriptions are poorly written as they are boring and focus strictly on what they company needs, not what they are offering.  In contacting a busy executive in a highly rewarding job at the office, you likely have less than 30 seconds to gain their interest.  It is for this reason why it is so important to have a search firm that people respect working on your behalf as people take our calls and listen to what we have to say because its always worthwhile.

When we speak to clients, we always ask them if they have their best salespeople and experienced “closers” handling their recruitment.  The answer is always the same, “No”.   Furthermore, companies assign people who have never sold anything in their life to the most important role in the company, recruiting great executive talent.

Bangkok Executive Search is comprised of the best deal makers in Asia and whether you are seeking executives in hospitality, manufacturing, consumer product goods or retail/wholesale we have the “closers” to get your company the sought out executives its desires for its critical roles.

WHAT WE DO

The traditional executive search firm uses a variety of online job posting sites in their recruiting efforts. This results in companies meeting strictly with people who are looking for employment.  At Bangkok Executive Search, we never use online advertisements in locating the best talent as we target employed high performing executives who are not looking..the ones that are the “best of the best”.

“We have worked with Bangkok Executive Search for the past year. As we have grown and evolved, what I have valued most about our relationship is that Bangkok Executive Search know us and our business.”
NIGEL RAWLINSON • SENIOR PARTNER
“In managing the operations for our Thailand division, it has been critical to partner with an experienced search firm as we do not have the talent pool available to oversee executive recruitment. Furthermore, we cannot rely on our team back in the UK as they have absolutely no familiarity with the Thai business community. Bangkok Executive Search is quite frankly my most valued partner.”
CHARLES LEGAULT • PRESIDENT
“If it is time to hire a true and proven executive, call Bangkok Executive Search”
MICHELLE GALLAGHER • COO
“Bangkok Executive Search has an excellent reputation as a search firm yet we received far more than we expected as they guided the process in a way that served everyone’s best interests, including those of the candidates. This allowed the person we hired to know that we are fair and honorable and when they started they were extremely motivated and excited.”
KAREN WEIR • OWNER
