The challenge of successfully recruiting new staff has grown over the past 20 years as demand outstrips supply for the competent and motivated individuals required in today's rapidly changing markets. Since the 'Oil Boom' of the 1970s, conditions have progressively changed,with it being consistently difficult to attract quality expatriate staff to the Arabian Gulf region due to a number of factors - the geo-political situation, remuneration affected by the low US dollar, attractive employment conditions in most domestic employment markets and strong competition from Asia. Our Auckland office is strategically (time zone) located to allow us to communicate with job seekers ranging from Canada/USA through to the Middle East during their daytime hours. The location of our Saudi and Bahrain offices complements this activity allowing us to communicate with job seekers and clients from other time zones in their daytime hours. This is one of many reasons why our clients utilise the services of Expat Careers International to ensure they attract the most suitably qualified and experienced individuals, regardless of their location in the world.
OUR PEOPLE
Expat Careers International is headed by Stuart Bennett, a highly experienced recruitment manager who has lived and worked in expatriate roles in Kuwait, Sultanate of Oman, UAE, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Lebanon. Stuart spent 14 years as a senior manager with Morgan and Banks, from its establishment in the mid 1980's until 2001, when it had grown to become the largest recruitment group in the Asia-Pacific region with over 3,000 employees. During this period he established operations in Melbourne and Brisbane, and was General Manager of Morgan and Banks Technology Recruitment. He also has significant experience in the management of large volume recruitment projects from the Indian sub continent. Over recent years he has successfully opened and established regional offices in Saudi Arabia, and Bahrain allowing us to work very closely with our client companies and GCC based candidates.
