Leading international recruitment firm Claremont Consulting has appointed a new management team within its Hong Kong office amid plans to expand the company’s footprint across Asia-Pacific (APAC).
Raymond Mo joins the office of this fast-growing global business as Regional Director while Jonathan Ho comes on board as a Recruitment Manager. They will be responsible for strategically developing the team to position Claremont Consulting as one of the most prominent recruitment brands in Hong Kong and APAC.
They plan to achieve this by diversifying the company’s sector coverage to generate new revenue streams, while expanding the team to help leverage these additional markets. The team also aims to grow all areas of Claremont Consulting’s considerable portfolio of corporate recruitment services and resources across its niche IT, HR and Engineering sectors.
This comes in the wake of exponential business growth for the business, after Claremont Consulting opened a US arm of the business in 2018, alongside launching offices in Germany and Portugal in the same year. They join long-established operations at the business’s London headquarters and across Europe and at its burgeoning Hong Kong office.
This fast expanding global network has enabled Claremont Consulting to partner blue-chip multinational clients with top professionals throughout its territories and to strategically source the very best talent, wherever they are in the world.
Prior to joining Claremont Consulting, Raymond spent the past four years working for a boutique search firm in Hong Kong, specialising in the Technology, Commercial, Banking and Finance industries. His primary focus was driving business growth for Technology Practice from middle to senior executive appointments in Sales, Marketing, Professional Services and Technical Consultancy for MNC Technology Vendors, Telecom Services Providers, Global Systems Integrators and Local Services Providers.
With four years worth of executive search experience, Raymond has accumulated strong domain knowledge in Business Development, Key Account Management and Client Delivery. He has also developed a wealth of client networks and candidate ownership in the APAC marketplace. Raymond maintains a consistent and excellent track record of placing middle to senior level executives for leading ICT vendors and service providers.
Before joining the recruitment industry, Raymond accrued two decades worth of business management experience in the IT industry, taking various senior leadership roles in both Sales and Professional Services with leading technology vendors such as Oracle, Red Hat, webMethods (now Software AG) and Sun Microsystems. He has extensive experience in building up and managing high performance Sales and Technical teams with a proven track record for business growth in the Greater China region.
Jonathan joins Claremont Consulting from executive search and talent acquisition firm Appoint Global. He brings with him more than 10 years worth of technology recruitment experience in London and Hong Kong.
Speaking about the two appointments, a spokesperson for Claremont Consulting, said: “We are delighted to have Raymond and Jonathan join our successful team in Hong Kong as we continue to grow our international footprint, expand our resources and bring our unique brand of recruitment services to new clients.
“We are intent on building a global team with the breadth of experience to help create and execute strategic talent solutions that can end inefficient practices and improve hiring results in these tough times. Our presence in Hong Kong is instrumental in helping us to achieve our overarching business goals. We are confident that our unique approach to delivering the best solutions to both our clients and candidates emphasises our strong understanding of corporate recruiting and highlights our collaborative HR partnerships.”
