Welcome to the Grant Thornton Candidate Marketing

The programme is open to truly talented individuals, both Thai and non-Thai, who have a history of over-achieving and have already excelled in their career. Clearly displaying specialist or marketable skills, business acumen, in-depth experience, languages and the ambition to accelerate their career to the next stage. It is a free service to Candidates.

Are you a "Most Placeable Candidate"? Are you a "Difference Maker"?
Do you have extraordinary skills that will get the attention of a hiring manager?
Do you know your market value? Are you realistic when it comes to job title and compensation?
Are you in an industry which is on the move and short of really smart people?
Are you prepared to take the time during normal working hours to meet the company of your choice?
Will a professional business reference check confirm your outstanding achievements and organisational skills?
Are you looking for an "agent" to represent you and to market you to particular companies?
Will you commit to work exclusively with Grant Thornton to execute your next career move?

We represent top-talented executives and senior management professionals who wish to make a career transition into a new job in Thailand or beyond. Consider Grant Thornton as your personal agent working in your interests.

Does this describe you?
35 years of age or more
Master's degree in a business or technical discipline
At least ten years work experience
At least five years in a management position
Fluent English skills
Proficient Thai language skills for non-Thais. Can you realistically conduct a business meeting or presentation in Thai?

Excellent language skills (English and Thai) are in high demand in the market and therefore one of the key qualifications in joining the scheme unless you are looking at a regional or global role.

We would like you to think about the companies that you would choose to work for and why you would prove irresistible to them. We also need to have an idea of your current and expected compensation. We will then be in a position to decide whether we can help you in your search for an accelerated career.

Remember that we don't find you a job - we use our brand and contacts to open the door to the right decision makers in your target companies and sell YOU to them so that they agree to meet you - either over a cup of coffee or in a more formal meeting. After that it is down to you. The service is completely free to Candidates, but also free to employers - they can meet you as many times as they wish. We will help you to negotiate the best package. Only when the employer makes you an offer that you accept do we invoice the company for our introductory fee.

What we will ask you to provide:

A one page 'press release' style synopsis of your profile with a passport style photograph, which will be the initial presentation to your target companies
A maximum of six company names with departments or roles where relevant, in order of your preference, which we will contact on your behalf
References (minimum 2 people)
Your 2-3 page resume emphasising your challenges and achievements - short, sharp, concise, interesting, valuable
Current and expected salary and benefits
A sentence or two on why you wish to move on from your current role?

If you have the motivation to work with us on your personal development and recruitment plan as well as appoint Grant Thornton as your exclusive agent in this respect, please don't hesitate to .

With almost 20 years in the executive search business in Thailand, Grant Thornton is acknowledged as the market leader in its industry. We are praised by both candidates and clients. Their endorsements say it all. Examples as we received them:

I would like to thank you and compliment the overall service of Grant Thornton. Compared to others, you are quality wise above your peers that I met. Due, probably, to your professionalism and human quality. As always, you have all my respect for your outstanding personality, dynamic and enthusiastic, you care for your candidates.
Off the record, I wish it had been Grant Thornton representing me as I would have seen a far more professionally run process than I have witnessed. Thank you very much for your reply and of course for your wise advises. I'm really impressed!! By far, you are the Headhunter that takes his job more seriously. I will follow your recommendations.
I am most appreciative and overwhelmed by the effort and invaluable guidance you have sent to me. Job hunting is a complex process and it is difficult from the outside to understand the process from the recipient's perspective. Thanks for the update. The preparation I received from Grant Thornton was the best I have ever had as a candidate.
Thank you very much for your kind comments. They are very useful to me. I don't know how to express my gratitude to you more than words "Thank you!!!!" Hope you don't mind if I will keep in touch with you in the future.

In our programme we will work closely with you to develop your personal value proposition. We will work together to fine tune your resume. We will teach you how to get the best out of meeting your choice of companies. And so much more. If you know you are a Shining Star in your industry, we are ready to work with you to achieve your goals.
