Specialist finance, consulting and legal markets recruitment consultancy, Definitive Consulting, has established its first international subsidiary in Sydney, Australia.
The new subsidiary, Definitive Consulting PTY is based Sydney and is staffed by a mixture of local talent and senior consultants drawn from the firm’s team in London.
Definitive Consulting chief executive Darren James says he has been encouraged by a series of meetings with the subsidiary’s start-up clients. “The markets we serve remain buoyant in Australia and every firm we have met with has very significant growth plans.
“Those plans are only limited by the availability of talent and, given our international reach and our focus on search and selection, we are ideally placed to help address that challenge. I’ve come away from almost every meeting with a brief for at least one senior hire who is based locally and the demand for UK-based accountants and lawyers prepared to relocate is unprecedented.”
In a recent survey of senior accounting and legal executives in London, carried out by Definitive Consulting, Australia was named as the second most attractive overseas career move behind New York City.
James adds: “We are already working on more than 10 senior roles, with a focus on attracting the best talent from around the world, and that number grows by the day.”
The move into Australia is the first in a series of planned investments in growth markets worldwide. Plans are already in place for further subsidiaries across South East Asia and the US.
