Cielo Launches Global Executive Search Practice

Cielo, the world’s leading strategic Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) partner, today announced that it is bringing its executive search experts into a global practice under the Cielo brand, with on-the-ground presence in each region around the world.

The global Executive Search Practice builds on the lessons learned over the past 12 years as the organization has delivered over 4,000 executive-level hires. Since 2007, Craig Pointon has led executive search for the MEA region, and he will now take on the role of Cielo’s Executive Vice President and Global Head of Executive Search.

“It has become increasingly apparent in recent years that the executive search industry hasn’t evolved at the pace of the rest of the recruitment industry,” Pointon said. “The traditional standard of waiting six weeks for a shortlist of qualified candidates should not be accepted in today’s world of advanced technology. It is our aim at Cielo to demystify executive search and help our clients measure ROI from their executive search partnership.”
