Safir Recruiting

Safir Recruiting LLC is an EMEA executive search firm founded in 2007 that serves US and Canadian companies seeking to recruit and build teams across Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The company maintains embedded teams in Europe close to talent sources whilst positioning its CEO on the US East Coast to align with client time zones and business hours.

The firm finds, assesses and secures senior talent and leaders across the EMEA region, executing searches from initial brief through to candidate delivery. The company operates across major European financial centres and technology hubs including London, Paris, Berlin and Amsterdam, as well as fast-growing Middle Eastern centres including Dubai, Riyadh and Tel Aviv, and emerging African leadership markets including Lagos, Nairobi, Cairo and Cape Town. Safir scales its services from single key executive hires to full team building on the ground, with one dedicated partner managing the entire search rather than using account managers or junior researchers.

With hundreds of clients served and fifty-plus years of combined recruitment experience, Safir Recruiting delivers local market insight combined with deep understanding of North American hiring standards and expectations. The firm operates with no handoffs, providing direct access to senior consultants executing every search.
