March 2011. IRC Global Executive Search Partners (IRC), an alliance of independent executive search firms and a market leader in the global executive search industry, welcomes Argentina-based Oxford Partners as a new member firm.

“Oxford Partners fits really well with IRC’s global executive search boutique focus,” says Sylvia MacArthur, president of the Executive Board of IRC Global Executive Search Partners. “IRC is committed to the highest possible standards in management recruitment services. Comprised of independent, owner-operated firms, our members have a personal stake in the outcome of each and every assignment, local and global, without the hierarchy and bureaucracy existing in large firms. Oxford Partners’ exceptionally well-qualified partners are all dedicated to combining extensive local knowledge with international expertise.

“Oxford Partners is a boutique executive search firm that focuses on upper executive-level management positions. It is part of a group of companies – RHUO – run by three partners: Alejandro Mascó, Ana Renedo and Gustavo Papini. The firm also conducts cross-border executive searches, and is renowned for finding Argentine-based executives for major multi-national companies.

“This alliance also allows us to provide differential value to our regional customers,” adds Alejandro Mascó. “Lowering costs and maximizing our client’s operations is our mission.”

Ana Renedo concluded: “Hunting for high-level executives goes beyond national boundaries. Oxford Partners is a flexible company, with international, national and regional, expertise.”

Oxford Partners’ sector focus includes consumer services, health care, oil and gas, technology, communication and industry. A new division, Next Step, for outplacement and coaching is led by director Analía Fierro.

“All our company partners come from successful careers,” says Rubén. “We offer professional backgrounds and age range, which means we can build rapport with various diverse clients. We identify talents, internal and external, to improve our clients’ capacity to compete in and adapt to a globalized world.”
