Values & Approach

“As Managing Director of Tyson Foods Europe, I have employed the services of Alexander at AKP Resources for key senior and specialist search requirements. Alexander has been successful in all cases. Importantly, Alexander also provides a structured and confidential process which ensures a highly professional experience for all candidates. I look forward to our next project together.”

“During my time as the CEO of the start-up company Veramaris where we grew our team from two to fifty colleagues, Alexander was successful in supporting Veramaris human resource team to identify global talents, conduct initial pre-screening interviews, recommend a shortlist of candidates, and then support with final interviews and renumeration packages. Alexander supports the entire process diligently and is persistent in his follow-up with all parties to move towards completion of the job task with the best possible candidate. I recommend Alexander to support you in your recruitment of talented individuals for various functional roles throughout a dynamic organisation.”

“As a company, we embarked on a very critical search that was pivotal to the transformation of our organisation.  Alexander took the time to really listen, work with us on specific role detail, and also provided us some early one-on-one screening interviews to determine the type of candidate profile we were looking for. This approach allowed us to move quickly and gave us the exact candidate for the role. The experience was 5-star and I will definitely use AKP Resources for future hiring needs.”

"Alexander is an excellent collaboration partner. He has an in-depth knowledge of the aquaculture industry and has invested in understanding our business and talent strategy. We have built a long-term business relationship, where Alexander proactively searches for top talent across the world. His network enables us to get in contact with many very interesting prospects, ranging from talented graduates to senior management. At the same time, he is dedicated to facilitating a candidate experience which aligns with our company brand and purpose."

“Successfully identifying and onboarding top talent for the market in Asia is a rare and valuable skillset. Over the past 4 years, I have engaged the services of AKP Resources to create highly customised Market Maps and to run successful Search Processes for a range of senior and specialist role requirements across Southeast Asia & China. The positions have ranged across Commercial, Technical, Human Resources, & Leadership. In all cases, Alexander provided us with first-class shortlists of high-level talent, fitting our search requirements. Alexander’s professionalism, responsiveness, and commitment to excellence sets him apart as a search partner.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Alexander for a while now in large part due to his commitment to serve his clients with authenticity, integrity and a genuine desire to partner. He pays close attention to my needs, asks good questions, and matches his search process to evaluate talent with the right skills, experiences, and most importantly, behaviours and cultural fit while keeping me updated throughout the process. He acts with urgency and quality and plays a wonderful thought-partner role.”

“Over the years, MarSyt has engaged the services of AKP Resources to help us find the right teammates for our growing MarSyt team. Alexander provides us with a highly professional search process, which delivers outstanding candidates for the roles. Most importantly, Alexander treats all candidates with respect and manages a confidential & organized process that reflects MarSyt’s own high standards and values. I look forward to future collaboration with AKP Resources and can highly recommend the service.”

“Alexander is a rare find. His approach to sourcing talent is handled with thoughtfulness, collaboration, and a high degree of professionalism. Compared to many others in his field, the candidate pool he identifies is not only on target regarding the job function but they also have a strong motivational fit. I look forward to the next project with him.”

"As Director of Product Development & Innovation at a global feed additive producer, I have worked closely with Alexander Kennedy for a few years when we were recruiting additional technical staff. I especially appreciated Alexander's approach: He takes plenty of time understanding the expectations of the company for a potential new employee and the team this employee should fit in. Only when being fully informed does he start the search, with a clear focus on proposing suitable candidates to match. In our situation, Alexander succeeded doing so in all cases."

“Alexander provided our group with exceptional candidates by matching our staffing needs to highly talented individuals. There was excellent communication and a timely selection of candidates.”
