Secrets of the people poachers
Article Abstract:
It has become increasingly common for UK property companies to use headhunters to find employees as the employment market in the industry becomes more competitive. Some observers regard headhunting as rather unethical, but most people who are approached by headhunters are flattered. However, this does not necessarily mean that they are looking for alternative employment. Some companies are deterred from using headhunters because of the possible danger to their reputation from unprofessional conduct, while others are unwilling to pay the high prices charged by headhunters.

Young look for old hand
Article Abstract:
Grosvenor Estate Holdings is keen to emphasise that it is a young and energetic property company, contrary to the impression created by its offices in central London, England, which are very traditional in style. It has been building up a strong international presence over recent years, and Grosvenor International Holdings, an associated company which is present in Australia, Canada and the US, now manages a portfolio worth more than C$2 billion. It is now considering expanding into continental Europe.
