South Korea is a dynamic and strategic market and having a strong partner here will allow us to better serve our global clients with local expertise".

 

South Korea's economy, driven by key industries such as automotive, electronics, and shipbuilding, is one of the most vibrant in the world. The country's business environment is characterised by a strong emphasis on relationship-building and networking, making it an ideal location for TRANSEARCH's continued expansion. The new office will offer a full range of executive search services, focusing on the unique needs of the Korean market while tapping into TRANSEARCH's global expertise.
