Cielo, the world’s leading Talent Acquisition Partner, has opened a new office in Seoul, South Korea, marking its 13th country in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region and reinforcing its position as the fastest-growing recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) provider in APAC.
Located in Spaces Autoway Tower, Gangnam, the Seoul office will house a specialized team delivering Cielo’s full suite of talent acquisition solutions, including RPO, TA Optimizers™, Employer Branding & Talent Marketing, Executive Search, and AI-driven recruitment tools tailored to both multinational and local organizations.
“We’ve received increased interest in our solutions from clients and prospects in South Korea over the past couple of years,” said Doug Terry, SVP Client Services for Cielo. “Having in-country teams allows us to navigate the unique challenges of the Korean hiring market, combining global best practices with local knowledge.”
The expansion aligns with the growing adoption of RPO solutions in South Korea, as organizations seek to improve recruitment efficiency, access skilled talent, optimize spending, and navigate complex labor regulations.
“This expansion is part of Cielo’s continued growth, agility, and investment across the APAC region,” said Sid Suhas, SVP. “By establishing local presence in key locations like Seoul, Tokyo, and Shanghai, we enhance our ability to deliver tailored talent acquisition solutions that meet the specific needs of global and regional clients.”
