S&H is one of the region’s largest independent PeopleSoft partners. Clients include AXA, the world’s third largest insurance company; Alcatel, a leading provider in telecommunications services in Europe; and the World Intellectual Property Organisation.

We’re excited to work with a firm of S&H’s caliber, said Andrew Geisel, vice president of international business for Recruitmax. It has excellent domain expertise, a fantastic customer base in France and Switzerland, and has proven its ability to develop a successful partnership. Working together, our firms offer a unique combination of technology and proven local services expertise. S&H’s coverage is going to allow us to execute better in the Swiss and French markets and their ability to support and serve our local customers will offer huge value.

S&H considered an alliance with a number of leading providers of HR technology before selecting Recruitmax. S&H’s chief executive officer, Pap’ Amadou Ngom said, Recruitmax products’ usability and flexibility would be a real asset for our clients. Above all, we believe that our clients - global organisations operating in multiple countries - are very receptive to Recruitmax’s integrated solution approach. We concluded that the way each company views human capital management solutions and services could help our clients gain competitive advantages. We are very proud to collaborate with Recruitmax and our main objective now is to help them establish a strong position on the French and Swiss markets.

The agreement further validates Recruitmax’s rising status throughout Europe. In 2004 Recruitmax launched its European headquarters in London and has since then expanded its staff to support its more than a dozen enterprise clients based in Europe and the Middle East.
