"Malaysia remains an employee driven market in this sector" said Jeff Bonnin, Country Manager, Spring Professional Malaysia. "Jobs such as construction managers, site managers and site engineers are the most in demand jobs on the market. The majority of the candidate market is centred in the KL area although much of the demand for talent is in Johor Bahru and East Malaysia."

Spring Professional has developed an expert-to-expert methodology, which will see our teams supporting both organisations and individuals in the recruitment process," added Serge Shine, Managing Director, Spring Professional Asia (ex-Japan).
