Speaking exclusively to Recruiter, SR Group partner Michael Illert, who leads the company’s continental European operations, said “high-level temping” placements will be a focus especially in Germany in the second half of the year, as an addition to its existing permanent business.
For instance, SR’s legal recruitment business, Taylor Root, will introduce legal project management teams at two levels to place in businesses on a temporary basis: the first tier will consist of lawyers who will be placed to manage high-level legal issues on specific projects, and the second will offer legal support capabilities, Illert said.
Illert described the company’s USP [unique selling proposition] as ‘local experts with a truly global network’. “Clients now want international shortlists,” he said. “We see that more and more.”
Nicoletta Ravida, formerly Laurence Simons’ managing consultant in Milan, will join SR in January to run its new office there, Illert said. Further Southern European operations will be run from Milan.
