Leading global firms leverage K2’s expertise to fill critical tech roles in China

K2 Partnering Solutions is supporting top global companies with operations in China to hire tried and tested professionals for SAP, big data and other high-demand technology roles, bridging skills gaps.

Strong local competition and a limited pool of bilingual candidates make it difficult for multinationals to secure specialist technology talent in China, irrespective of broader market conditions.

K2, which has been operating in China since 2016 and has an office in Shanghai, is connecting international businesses to an extensive network of English-speaking enterprise technology experts, all fully vetted from previous assignments.

We’ve recently helped leading companies across multiple industries – including McDonald’s, Nike, AB InBev, L’Oreal, Fast Retailing and Lululemon – recruit the permanent and contract staff they need to scale their technology teams and expand their footprint in China.

Global firms are looking for an experienced recruitment partner in China that understands their technology needs in growth areas such as cyber security, data, cloud infrastructure, and digital transformation, says Maika Tschmuck-Koyanagawa, managing director of K2 in China.

“As enterprise technology specialists, we have a deeper knowledge of clients’ tech requirements compared to more generalist recruiters,” says Maika, adding that K2 is increasingly assisting multinationals in hiring experts for critical SAP S/4HANA migration projects.

Supplying talent with exceptional technical skills is just one aspect of K2’s on-the-ground capabilities in China.

“Organizations entering or expanding in China are seeking individuals who are proficient in English and have experience in global businesses. As a global firm with a significant presence in China, K2 delivers local candidates with the soft skills to thrive in an international environment,” explains Maika. “Our goal is to ensure companies have access to the expertise they need to drive innovation and growth here in China.”
