recruit key personnel for our business. This process has been a successful and smooth process
because they have taken time to understand our business, team and strategy for approaching

Daniel Lambert Water Management and Engineering Leader | South East Asia
Arup
‘What a professional, helpful team Amida are! Thank you! We have used Amida’s recruitment
services to help us find key new placements in the development and reshape of our company for
growth. The challenge was to find the right individuals who could gel together and work at a
senior level alongside fitting in to the culture of our organisation. We have experienced
consistent super service. The calibre of candidate brought forward was very high and fitted well
with our brief. Amida really carried the process for us - saving us time and resources to get the
result we were after. Always aware of the limitations on my time - they provided a service that
solved problems as they arose rather than making extra demands – which is so often the case
with recruitment. Top job!’
Amanda Long CEO | Corporate Culture
KTC Group has been working with Amida and in particular Niall in sourcing for our key
manpower needs. They have a good understanding of the skill sets we require and their service
has been prompt, efficient and friendly.
The results have been fruitful and will continue to work with them as we seek out personnel with
specific skills.’
Rajan Krishnan CEO | KTC Group
Positions in property services function are critical for the real estate businesses, particularly for
the developers. Project management is a key role in the real estate space, which requires
candidates to have specialised skills, experience and attitudes. Thus, talent acquisition is
challenging as a result of the limited pool of experienced candidates.
We are impressed with the team of consultants in Amida. They have a vast network of qualified
candidates in this industry, and are able to source and present good-quality candidates within a
short span of time. Their fast response time and targeted selection of candidates have greatly
helped us to recruit talents for project management.
