After successfully working five years in a small Finnish-Russian recruitment company, in May 2010 Kristina joined Human Search. ”She has been instrumental from the beginning in sustaining the pro-active process of Human Search in Russia, the CIS and beyond. Her positive spirit means a lot to her team, and together with her pro-activity, she can always attract and place the most talented managers, including the hidden gems” says Managing Partner and part-owner Henric Nilsson. Deputy Team Leader Maria Mikhaylova adds: ”I work with Kristina for nine years. Kristina is an inspiring executive search professional and effective leader of our team. Kristina’s energetic and passionate working-style is what keeps our team motivated during all circumstances.”
Former Country Director of K-rauta Russia and Managing Director of Kone Russia, Mikko Nissinen, has worked many times with Kristina during these ten years. ”I had a privilege to work with Kristina during my years at K-rauta and KONE. We worked together with Human Search in more than ten demanding management team level and mid-management level searches. Throughout those years, Kristina and her team kept delivering excellent results in a timely manner and with a deep understanding of the customer’s needs. I am happy to congratulate Kristina with her ten years at Human Search and wish her and Human Search / Taplow Russia the best of success in the years to come!”
Kristina adds: ”Ten years at Human Search… there I found more than I could imagine. I want to thank my boss Henric Nilsson for all these years, for his trust, support and opportunity to be who I am. Human Search gave me a chance to develop myself as an executive search consultant, manager and a colleague. All these years were filled with exciting work, challenging projects, exciting meetings with stimulating clients and candidates. I am happy to have a great team of amazing professionals around me. I consider Human Search and Taplow Russia to be the best company in executive search in the CIS and I am proud to be part of it. A big thank you also to our clients and candidates for the excellent cooperation. Since last year Human Search is part of Taplow Group, which enables me to utilize my skills on a global scope. With excitement, I am looking forward to these new opportunities!”
