Talentor, established in 2003 in Finland, originated from collaboration between two partners who initially forged connections with executive search firms in the Nordics and Baltics. In 2012, the Austrian company epunkt - the biggest recruitment agency in Austria - acquired the Talentor structure, which comprised 12 partners across various countries. Over the last 10 years, we have expanded and refined our network, introducing new countries and making strategic partner changes. As of 2024, Talentor spans 37 countries, and our ambitious goal is to further grow and reach 50 partners by 2026!
Our mission is clear: to fulfill nearly 95% of all client requests on an international scale through our extensive network of local partners. By strategically expanding our reach and collaborating with partners worldwide, we ensure unparalleled global coverage for seamless and effective service delivery to our clients.
At Talentor, we pride ourselves on having an in-house team exclusively dedicated to driving growth, integrating new partners, and providing ongoing support to our active members. This sets us apart from other networks, as we have a stable management team committed to these responsibilities on a full-time basis. Unlike networks with constantly changing leadership, our team focuses entirely on the crucial tasks of growth and continuous development. We offer targeted support to our partners, addressing strategic, sales, and marketing challenges with precision and expertise.
By employing these strategies, we effectively manage our network, fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented environment that benefits all partners and ultimately enhances the value we provide to our clients.
