Engineering & Technical Services Company - Market Advisory & Recruitment Success Story

Our client is a regional engineering and technical services company operating across Southeast Asia, with an established presence in Cambodia. As part of its long-term growth strategy, the company was preparing for an organizational restructuring to strengthen its operations and leadership structure in the local market.

The Challenge

During the planning phase, the client’s Regional Deputy shared concerns around navigating the Cambodia talent market. They required clear guidance on local salary benchmarks, talent availability, and which roles should be prioritized within the new organizational structure. In addition, they faced difficulty identifying strong, reliable talent for several key finance and leadership positions critical to the success of the restructuring.

The client needed not just recruitment support, but informed, on-the-ground market insight to make confident and sustainable decisions.

Our Approach

MyWorld engaged closely with the client to provide advisory-led support beyond traditional recruitment. We shared detailed insights on current market trends, talent scarcity, and hiring realities within Cambodia, particularly for finance and senior-level roles.

Our support included:

• Guidance on realistic salary ranges and market expectations

• Advice on prioritizing critical roles within the new structure

• Insights into recruitment timelines and suitable candidate profiles
