TENTEN Partners Expands Global Footprint with New Dubai Office
The Singapore-based firm taps into Middle East's dynamic business landscape
TENTEN Partners, a leading executive search and recruitment firm headquartered in Singapore, has announced its strategic expansion into the Middle East with the opening of a new office in Dubai. This move marks a significant milestone in the company's global growth strategy and reinforces its commitment to connecting top-tier talent with exceptional opportunities in one of the world's fastest-growing regions.
Luke Archer, Co-founder & Managing Partner at TENTEN Partners, shared, "Our strategic expansion into the Middle East represents a pivotal moment in TENTEN Partners' global growth trajectory. We're excited and privileged to be part of the region's transformation journey. This move not only reinforces our commitment to meeting the evolving needs of our international clientele but also positions us at the forefront of the region's dynamic business landscape. By leveraging our deep industry expertise and our proven track record in talent acquisition, we are poised to make significant contributions to the transformative journey of businesses across the Middle East.
“This expansion is a testament to our vision of becoming the premier global partner for strategic hiring solutions, and we look forward to fostering long-term relationships that drive value for our clients, candidates, and stakeholders in this rapidly evolving market," he added.
Laura Taylor, newly appointed Head of Middle East at TENTEN Partners, highlighted the strategic rationale behind the expansion, "We've identified a strong synergy between Singapore and the Middle East, particularly given the region's current transformative phase. Our strategy is to leverage our global reach and local connections and knowledge to expand our remit and bring highly qualified professionals from other fast-growth markets to fill the gap we've observed in leadership roles beyond traditional executive search."
Justin Castle, who will lead the firm's management consulting practice from Dubai, and brings 15 years of experience in strategic hiring for the management consulting industry across North America, Europe, and APAC added, "This expansion enables TENTEN Partners to offer a comprehensive global strategic hiring service tailored to the Middle East’s unique needs. Dubai's significant investments in technology, sustainability, and economic diversification present unprecedented opportunities across various sectors, and we're well-positioned to support this growth by connecting top-tier talent with innovative companies in the region."
TENTEN Partners specialises in acquiring niche talent globally, with a focus on building long-term relationships. The firm's track record includes over a thousand successful placements over eight years, with 80% of placements coming from existing relationships or personal recommendations.
With offices now in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Dubai, TENTEN Partners is well-positioned to serve clients across Asia and the Middle East. The firm's expertise spans various sectors, including Technology, Financial Services, Insurance, and Management Consulting, with a client roster that includes industry leaders such as Standard Chartered Bank, OCBC, Deutsche Bank, and Emirates NBD.
As the Middle East continues its economic diversification and development, TENTEN Partners aims to play a crucial role in connecting international talent with the unique opportunities emerging in the region, while also supporting key initiatives such as Emiratisation.
