Antal International opens new office in Rome

Global professional and managerial recruiter, Antal International, has opened a new office in Rome to complement its existing 30 strong operation in Milan.

“Although we’ve been working with clients in central and southern Italy for many years, the continuing recovery of the Italian jobs market means that it’s now time for us to provide them with a dedicated office based in Rome,” says Vincenzo Trabacca, Antal’s managing director for Italy. “We’ll be working right across the spectrum of professional and managerial roles, but with a particular focus on IT, pharmaceuticals and the government supply sectors.”

The new office in Rome will be headed up by Enzo Pizza, who is rejoining Antal after several years with the Xerox corporation. “Enzo’s an excellent example of our ‘Hotel California’ policy,” says group managing director, Graeme Read. “We go to great lengths to keep in touch with our good people – as far as we are concerned they never really leave, they are just waiting for us to come up with the right opportunity for them back under the Antal umbrella.”

Opening in Rome takes the total number of Antal International offices to 97 in 34 countries. “Over the coming year we’re looking at more new offices in the Nordic countries, Malaysia, South Korea, Vietnam and Mongolia, as well as expanding our Chinese operations into other major cities to complement our existing teams in Beijing and Shanghai.”
