IMSA Search Global Adds New Member in Denmark

March 22, 2019 – Global recruiting consortiums continue to take advantage of a resurgence in certain geographic areas. Among them, executive search network IMSA Search Global Partners has added Danish search firm Brinch & Partners as its newest member.

Brinch & Partners has maintained steady growth since its founding a decade ago. Its team includes founding partners Martin Bo Sørensen and Jens Christian Jensen, nine consultants and five researchers. The firm operates from offices in Copenhagen and Arhus.

“The next logical step is expanding internationally,” said Mr. Sørensen. “With IMSA Search, we not only can seize the opportunity of working on a global scale, but we can also learn and share the ideas with other IMSA Search members from all over the world.”

Serving Denmark and Beyond

“On the one hand, our business is very local,” said Mr. Sørensen. “We know the local pool of potential candidates and we maintain close relations with our clients and we try to be aware of their constantly evolving needs. On the other, more and more companies are operating in the international environment and they are open to hire people from other countries and cultures. If our customers are willing to go global, we have to follow their needs and navigate the process on an extraterritorial level. Being a part of the IMSA Search network allows us to see new trends, tendencies and ideas which really valuable.”

“The company was founded by two managing partners, Jens and me, in 2008,” Mr. Sørensen. “We were offered to become partners in our previous company. But, deep down inside we knew that what we really wanted to do was to search using our own, unique approach to the recruitment process.”

Denmark has the world’s 13th most competitive economy and Europe’s eighth-ranked, according to the World Economic Forum. Companies headquartered in the country include A.P. Møller, Danske Bank, ISS, United Shipping & Trading Company, Novo Nordisk, Wrist Group, Carlsberg, DONG Energy, Arla Foods and Danish Crown.
