Careernet Group expands to the Middle Eastern market
Holistic
talent solutions provider
Careernet has announced its official foray into the Middle East, following its recent expansion into the United States through Longhouse, its executive search arm, the company said in a statement on Tuesday.
The
Middle East expansion
is part of a broader strategic push by the
Careernet Group
to deepen its presence in key global markets. Careernet's Middle East operations will be based in Dubai, UAE.
Backed by 25 years of experience, including scaling teams for fast-growing enterprises, global capability centres (GCCs), and multinationals, this expansion will strengthen the Group's ability to serve both existing clients with operations in the region as well as Middle East-based enterprises seeking
strategic talent support
across tech, digital, and emerging sectors. As the geography emerges as a global innovation hub, the demand for specialised talent is intensifying across sectors like startups, AI, fintech, and Web3.
Careernet's entry into the Middle Eastern market will see it offering enterprises access to talent solutions through its integrated ecosystem of specialist brands: HirePro (
AI-enabled recruitment
automation); Longhouse (executive search and talent advisory); and MyCareernet (employer branding and candidate engagement through digital platforms).
'The Middle Eastern region is a rapidly evolving talent hub, and we see it not just as a market but as a strategic focus in our long-term growth vision. We have supported UAE-headquartered companies with their India hiring for many years and are now strengthening that relationship with an on-ground presence in the region,' said Anshuman Das, CEO and Co-founder, Careernet Group.
To lead this new phase of growth, Asif Khan has been appointed as Associate Vice President for the Middle East office. Based in Dubai, Asif brings over a decade of experience in sales and client management across IT, FMCG, retail, and energy sectors, along with a deep understanding of the region's talent dynamics. He will spearhead strategic partnerships, client acquisition, and growth initiatives in the region.
