Antal China

Antal International is a global recruitment company founded in London more than 20 years ago. Antal is present in 35 countries across the world and employs more than 1000 people. Across China and Southeast Asia we have offices in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Suzhou, Dalian, Wuhan, Qingdao, Hong Kong, Nanning, and Singapore, and currently employ more than 200 recruitment consultants. Over the past 15 years, we have worked with more than 3,000 clients and made over 7,000 placements. Our clients range from large MNCs to Chinese domestic giants to some of the most iconic British brands. All our clients are different, but they all have the same desire to grow and improve their teams in China. Our team covers 17 different industries, the largest of which include automotive, consumer and retail products, healthcare, technology and green tech, rail, industrial products, services, chemical products, education and banking and insurance. As part of our CSR program, we created The Antal Charitable Foundation. It focuses on supporting charities across the globe, whose main aim is to help disadvantaged children. Our philosophy that helps us achieve this is through sharing information: 'we share information, knowledge and experience for the benefit of our colleagues, clients and candidates.'​ Antal has always focused on developing emerging markets - our biggest footprint globally is in China, India, Poland and Russia. Consequently, it was a natural progression for us to be one of the first foreign recruitment firms to open in China more than 15 years ago. We are expanding our footprint in Shanghai and Suzhou, opening new offices in Qingdao, Nanjing and Tianjin and have invested in a new state of the art database and we are redoubling our internal training efforts. Our business objective in China and Southeast Asia is simple: to provide the best possible environment for our staff to achieve their professional ambitions.
