How Runtalents got started
Karine Angleys and Oliver Bourquard met in Melbourne in 2006. At this time, Olivier was HR Director for Asia-Pacific area based in Shanghai and was seeking a specialist recruiter to source his new local Australian Director. Karine was Area Manager in Melbourne at Polyglot HR Solutions, a multicultural HR solutions consultancy whose office she set up from scratch in 2003. She was providing the services to assist with this mission to recruit his Australian Director. This included all challenges of international recruitment :
Geographical distance,Intercultural environment for a strategic position,Unknown company on the local market.
This mission, once successfully executed set the beginning of a fruitful cooperation in recruitment and HR.
Following 8 years of continued specialist global service in executive HR and recruitment roles, they relocated back to France in their respective roles, realising that they had both developed niche-expertise in international HR and recruitment. So, the two specialists in their chosen fields decided to combine their skill-sets to create Runtalents.
With their respective sets of experience and networks, Karine and Olivier are optimally placed to respond to their clients’ expectations, as they know how to surround themselves with experts in their fields in order to source the best possible solution.
