JAC Recruitment Continues German Expansion with New Office in Munich, Germany

JAC Recruitment, a leading recruitment company with operations in 33 locations across 11 countries, is further expanding its international footprint with the opening of its third German office in Munich on Monday 2 October 2023. This strategic move aims to further strengthen its support for both clients and candidates in the mid to senior level specialist recruitment market in southern Germany.

Munich,one of Germany's top industrial cities in terms of economic scale with the highest concentration of large companies in the country, is situated in the industrially rich state of Bavaria – which contributes 18% to the country’s GDP. The state is a nucleus for manufacturing giants, particularly in automotive and machinery sectors, and is home to leading automotive and semiconductor companies. In recent years, Bavaria has seen a surge in the establishment of operations by numerous companies, including around 450 Japanese firms, 176 of which are based in Munich, enhancing its international business ecosystem. Recognizing the significant economic activity and the vast pool of opportunities in Munich and Bavaria, JAC Recruitment has strategically chosen to open a new branch in this vibrant and industrially diverse landscape, aiming to contribute to and leverage the innovation and growth prevalent in the region.

Akiko Kusama, Director of JAC Recruitment Germany, remarked, "Southern Germany is a hub for highly skilled and talented individuals. A robust network of locally based human resources and profound market knowledge are imperative for business expansion. With existing offices in Düsseldorf and Frankfurt, our new Munich office aims to elevate our support for Japanese companies operating in Germany."

Shoko Ganz, Senior Consultant at the Munich branch, added "The opening of the office in Munich serves to further extend the coverage we can provide to our clients and candidates in Germany. Furthermore, as the market in Munich and southern Germany grows, we will continue to expand our operation to provide for the increasing demand from business for quality candidates.”

Leveraging on their robust regional network, specialised industry focus and understanding of local markets, JAC Recruitment’s mission to expand their international footprint will see the opening of further new office locations and specialist recruitment services designed to help support the growth of multinational clients in every stage of their business.
