Executive Search Director with 20 years of experience in the APAC region, specializing in C-suite placements and board advisory. He helps international talent navigate the "local experience" barrier and unlock the hidden job market in Sydney and Melbourne.
Marcus is a seasoned headhunter and career strategist based in Sydney, known for his brutally honest advice to incoming executives. With two decades spent mediating between global talent and Australian boards, he understands exactly why 70% of senior roles never hit job boards and how "cultural fit" often trumps technical skill in the Aussie market. He advises on salary benchmarking, resume localization to pass the "6-second scan," and networking strategies that bypass gatekeepers. His approach is tactical, focusing on building social capital and translating overseas achievements into value propositions that resonate with local decision-makers.
