About

"Great vision without great people is irrelevant." – Jim Collins "Human Resources isn’t a thing we do. It’s the thing that runs our business." – Steve Wynn "You need to have a collaborative hiring process." – Steve Jobs With 10+ years of international recruitment expertise, I’ve partnered with organizations from Australia, Switzerland, Singapore, the Netherlands, and France to build exceptional teams that drive success. Growing up and living in 10 different countries across Europe, Africa, and Asia has shaped my ability to apprehend and navigate diverse cultures, an invaluable skill in hiring and managing international talent. From startups and scaleups like @Sorare, @Voodoo, and @amo to globally established giants like @Booking.com, I’ve mastered the art of: ✅ Full-cycle recruitment (sourcing, Boolean search, data-driven hiring). ✅ Executive and operational searches worldwide. ✅ Stakeholder and team management. ✅ Elevating the candidate experience and driving business development. As a Guest Speaker at ESCE International Business School, I shared insights on digital and tech recruitment, helping to inspire the next generation of talent professionals. Founder of MERIT-Search: a boutique consultancy dedicated to discovering top-tier talent through strategic sourcing, tailored hiring processes, intercultural coaching, and bespoke training programs. Let’s connect if you’re looking to build winning teams, transform recruitment strategies, or exchange ideas about the future of talent acquisition!
