China

Robert Walters, an award-winning business and one of the world's leading specialist professional recruitment consultancies, announced today the expansion of its Asian network with a new office in Taipei, Taiwan.

After successfully launching the Vietnam and Indonesia offices, Robert Walters’ new operations in Taiwan continued the Group’s growth strategy in Asia, in response to an increasing demand from both clients and candidates for specialist and international recruitment services in the Taiwanese market.

"As an international recruitment firm, we have the ability to tap into a global database of candidates who are looking to return to Taiwan as well as foreign talent who will consider a posting there", said Mark Ellwood, Managing Director, Asia.

"We have been requested on many occasions to service the Taiwanese market from overseas but now that we have opened a local office, we will be able to provide a more dedicated service to a wider network of clients and candidates. We are excited to be opening another office in Asia as we look to build our Asian network of offices, which is the fastest growing region of the Group."

Lee Tze Yong, Country Manager for Robert Walters Taiwan commented: "Robert Walters is excited to enter the Taiwan market and hopes to fill the void in middle to senior level specialist recruitment space, especially within the banking, IT and sales and marketing sectors.

"We will strive to provide the best career opportunities to Taiwanese candidates both locally and internationally. We aim to offer a unique style of professional recruitment and industry expertise in Taiwan through leveraging our global presence, network and strong brand."

The Taipei office will continue to build on Robert Walters' strength in permanent recruitment for mid to senior-level professionals, with an initial focus on the following disciplines: banking & financial services, sales & marketing and IT & technology functions.

The expansion of Robert Walters’s Asia footprint into the Taiwan market increases the Group's global reach to 47 offices in 23 countries.
