Horton International, the Global Executive Search
firm, announces the opening of a new office in Brazil
LONDON, U.K., June 28th, 2017 — Global executive search group, Horton
International with 50 offices in 30 countries, is pleased to announce the
opening of a new office in São Paulo, Brazil, a boutique organisation that
augments the firm’s operations in Latin America.
Led by Hans Roberto Frenster, Horton International Brazil provides executive
search services across a number of sectors, including agribusiness,
automotive, energy, technology, pharmaceutical/life sciences, commodities,
industry, food and beverage, transportation and luxury among others.
Hans comes to Horton with nearly a decade of executive search experience
and over 25 years of experience heading family, private and public,
medium/large local and international companies. Having actively participated
in proceedings related to implementation, restructuring, startups and M&A of
organizations in Brazil and globally, Hans has a deep understanding of
business needs.
“We are delighted to welcome Hans Roberto Frenster as our new managing
partner in Brazil. The addition of the team further underpins our strategy
across Latin America and globally, to ensure our clients receive the best local
and worldwide knowledge and expertise,” said Ross Eades, Chief Executive
of Horton International. “This demonstrates our continued determination to
expand our capabilities across all global major economies as well as our
commitment to new and emerging markets.”
Josh Hollander, Regional Director of Horton International for the Americas added,
“Hans is an exceptional addition to our Americas team. He has built
and directed organizations on an international scale as a successful operating
executive and a leading executive search professional. I am excited to add his
deep knowledge of the local market as well as enhancing Brazil’s place in the
broader Latin American and global economies.”
Data suggests that the economy in Brazil has turned a corner, after GDP
contracted sharply in 2016. The manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index
recorded the best result in over two years in March and both business and
consumer confidence rested at multi-year highs. In addition, the country
logged a record USD 7.1 billion trade surplus in March 2017, aided by
strengthening commodity prices.
