Client : Sime Darby Property Position : Head of Industrial & Logistics Development, Malaysian Vision Valley Recruitment Solution : Exclusive Executive Search Recruitment Period : 10 weeks
• MRG PA’s initial brief was based on an exclusive executive search to find the Head of Industrial & Logistic Development for MVV 2.0, reporting into the CEO & Head of Investment for MVV 2.0 and managing the entire MVV 2.0 team. • Sime Darby had been looking for a suitable candidate for this for the last year and had interviewed 30 candidates. All of which had failed to get past the first round interview stage, as such the role had been widely publicised and was known to the local talent pool. • The role was responsible for leading the team that manages the end to end business development, marketing, investment, development and construction for the initial phase of MVV which consisted of 2000+ acres of master planned industrial & logistic hub (4.0) development. • On retention by the client, MRG PA met with Head of HR at the client’s HQ in Ara Damansara, it was agreed that whilst an extensive search of the local market was preferred, the client was now open to regional expats. The client also required that the search was conducted as quickly as possible. • The process was started by identifying the key industrial & logistic hub developers across Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia and the Philippines.
• Thereafter, a specific talent market map was created from the above list.
• From the market map, a longlist and then a shortlist of candidates was formed.
• After a thorough interviewing process, we presented three candidates, of which two got through to the final round of interviewing and one was hired.
