Perrett Laver is a leading global executive search firm specialising in Higher Education, Schools, Science & Research, Global Development & Non-Profits, Arts and Culture, and Health and Social Care. The firm employs over 180 professionals and operates on a global basis with offices located in EMEA, the Americas and Asia Pacific. 

 

Our aim and passion are to find exceptional leaders in academia, schools, healthcare, non-profit charities, foundations, NGOs, and other public or private sector organisations that have a positive impact on society. We are committed to delivering excellent, professional services to our clients on every occasion.

 

Perrett Laver established its Hong Kong operations in 2014, and we have a strong track record of success. Our clients include top universities and schools in Hong Kong, Greater China and the Asia Pacific region, as well as arts and culture organisations, government agencies, and major research institutes.

 

Perrett Laver is now seeking to hire a bright, dynamic and ambitious individual to join our fast-growing team in Central Hong Kong as Consultant / Associate Consultant.


These two roles all draw upon the intellectual skills necessary to grasp a complex brief; the research skills to identify people who are at the highest levels in their professions; the advocacy skills to engage such candidates; the motivation to serve our clients to the best of our abilities; and the capacity to work as part of a core project team and a wider corporate team. You will have a thirst for knowledge, a methodical mind-set that will enable you to carry out a comprehensive and global search of the talent pool, and high attention to detail.

During interactions with both candidates and clients, the Consultant should have the ability to bring a depth of understanding and insight into corporate priorities and individual interactions, as well as building and retaining positive relationships to benefit the company.


We are seeking people with the following:

  • An intellectually curious mind-set;
  • A shared commitment to the mission and values of Perrett Laver;
  • Knowledge and passion in education and non-profit sector ;
  • Sharp and rigorous analytical skills and attention to detail, particularly regarding the assessment of candidates;
  • A track-record of winning new business and leading projects to success within annual revenue targets;
  • A strong sense of service and the drive to best support our clients and candidates;
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and to prioritize workload;
  • A willingness to work with flexible hours when needed;
  • Tenacious, committed and results-oriented;
  • Enthusiastic and proactive;
  • Collaborative, flexible and able to contribute to the development of a growing team;
  • A Master’s degree or above;
  • Outstanding verbal and written communication skills in both English and Chinese;
  • Minimum of 5 years work experience.

Desirable

  • A Graduate degree;
  • Fluent in Cantonese and Mandarin;
  • Experience having worked with universities, academic organizations, schools or NGO.
