Tune in to THE most listened to episode of Talent Talk Asia. So why are both of Mark’s episodes so popular? Is it his wealth of experience in building recruitment businesses across Asia? Is it his ability to attract and retain top talent in his career, or is it his sense of humor that had you stitches in both episodes and left you wanting more? Whatever the reason, we were delighted to interview Mark Ellwood, former Managing Director of Robert Walters for SEA, is now Managing Director, Founder of Ellwood Consulting with offices in Singapore and Malaysia.
Mark led the award-winning business for Robert Walters for Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia offices for 15 years resulting in record results and developing some of the best talents in the market. Let us tell you what’s in store for you.
In this episode, Mark shares his career beginning from graduating in Theology at Durham, UK, and enrolling in the graduate training scheme at Michael Page, where he spent two years focusing on banking's contract side before moving to Singapore to run the Singapore office for Robert Walters. He will share his experiences at moving from the UK to Singapore, his career progression from billing consultant to Managing Director, and the challenges of running multiple offices across the region at such a young age. He’ll share with you what he sees as the key differences recruiting in Singapore to the less mature markets and much more.
