MUNICH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--With the opening of their Australian office in Perth, Steinbach & Partner is now active across five Continents. As the first German personnel consultant in Australia and the sector’s only global company in Western Australia, “Steinbach & Partner Executive Consultants Australia“ will support Australian and European companies acting or planning to act in Australia. Steinbach & Partner’s focus in Australia will be on the global mining business, supported by the expertise of the Steinbach offices in Brazil, China, and North America which are also active in this industry. Another focus is on the health, oil & gas, water and engineering industries. At the same time Steinbach & Partner will support professionals seeking career opportunities in Australia – including help with immigration procedures.
The Perth office will be led by David Clarke, who has been with Steinbach & Partner since May 2012. Before that the native Australian had spent 10 years with British Airways in Europe and since 2007 with the personnel consultancy “11Recruitment” in Perth. At “11Recruitment” he had been responsible for the mining, production, construction, engineering, oil & gas, and heavy metal industries. He had led a team of five consultants and had been responsible for business development and technical accounts from 2009 to 2012.
Clarke brings to Steinbach & Partner excellent expertise in ethnically and culturally diverse markets such as the U.S., Africa, Southeast Asia, and Japan as well as the emerging markets of China, India, and the Middle East. He studied political sciences and history at Monash University, Melbourne, and holds an Honours degree in political sciences.
“Our new Perth office further strengthens our international portfolio. Australia will increasingly play a significant and attractive role in a world where resources and raw materials are getting scarce”, according to Guido Happe, CEO of Steinbach & Partner, when announcing the expansion into Australia. “This step clearly demonstrates our commitment as the only German personnel consultancy offering and guaranteeing truly international search and recruitment services.”

At 26 locations in Europe, Asia, South America, and the U.S. Steinbach & Partner brings their proven market & consultancy expertise into the mechanical engineering, automotive, electrical engineering, IT & internet, medical engineering, pharma, professional services, FMCG/retail, and diagnostics industries.
