Grant Alexander, present since last spring in Switzerland, and already InterSearch’s exclusive partner in France, has enabled it to extend its network to the Swiss market
Paris, 18th of July 2024 – InterSearch, a premier global executive search network established in over 50 countries, is now extending its international coverage to Switzerland through Grant Alexander, a key player in the HR consulting market. A member of InterSearch since 2022, the group last spring acquired futura21, a major player in Switzerland’s HR consulting market present in Geneva, Lausanne and Fribourg.
Grant Alexander, a multi-specialist HR consulting expert, has been deploying an ambitious international development strategy for over two years, firstly through its membership of the InterSearch network (with 90 offices in more than 50 countries and a turnover of over $210 million in 2023), and secondly via company-operated sites.
Thanks to the strategic merger competed last April with futura21, a key HR consultancy in French-speaking Switzerland, Grant Alexander has given a boost to its growth outside France. At the same time, it is enabling InterSearch to invest in the high-potential market represented by Switzerland.
Within the Swiss teams, Romain Buob, who has held management and development responsibilities within futura21 since its creation in Switzerland, takes on the role of Business Operations Manager Switzerland for Grant Alexander and will be the InterSearch referent for Switzerland.
“Being a member of InterSearch is a major strength as regards our ability to assist our clients and applicants at international level. Since we joined two years ago, we have been keen to actively contribute to the network’s development, and we are now delighted to provide it with an opening in Switzerland. We are convinced that the virtuous dynamic created between InterSearch and Grant Alexander will continue and help us broaden our range of options”, says Henri Vidalinc, President of Grant Alexander.
“This presence in Switzerland strengthens our international network, which already has over 90 locations, and enables InterSearch to provide ever more business opportunities for its members. We welcome Grant Alexander’s international development and are delighted to be associated with it”, says Frank Schelstraete, Chairman of InterSearch Worldwide.
