Hong Kong Market Update
If you have been thinking about making a move to Hong Kong, now is the perfect time to do it! The Asian market for professional services marketers and BD professionals continues to keep us busy as we work with several global law firms on a variety of BD and marketing opportunities in Hong Kong.
At the executive to manager level, BD professionals now have an opportunity to secure a national position for an international law firm in Hong Kong. Driving and developing all activities relating to business development, marketing and communications, this person will have the opportunity to support the BD team across all Greater China practice groups and offices.
Slightly more senior, BD professionals looking for a position at a decision-making level can now join one of the magic circle law firms as a Sector Focus Manager in Hong Kong. An opportunity encompassing a broad range of BD responsibilities and the chance to be a part of an excellent BD team!
Marketers haven’t been left out as we are currently working on a Marketing Executive/Manager position with an American law firm in Hong Kong. Exclusive to Seldon Gill, this opportunity would ideally suit an experienced marketer with an ability to communicate in both English and Cantonese.
And it doesn’t end there, focusing on driving implementation of client and practice group initiatives, a Client Development Manager position exists for one of the world’s most renowned professional services firms. An ideal and worthwhile opportunity for an experienced Client Development professional looking to relocate to Asia!

As the leader in professional services BD and marketing recruitment for the Asia-Pacific region, and following our alliance last year with a UK partner, we are now very excited to announce that we have formed a strategic alliance with NY based J. Johnson Executive Search, Inc in the USA.

I have advised on the evolution of hundreds of careers. And my clients, the firms, appreciate that I know what they want, because I meet with them and understand their needs.”
Providing our candidates with more opportunity and our client’s with greater access to universal talent, Seldon Gill is thrilled to be working with J. Johnson Executive Search. Graham Seldon says, "When looking for an alliance partner in North America we simply had no choice. J. Johnson Executive Search is the most expert and knowledgeable firm in that market.
