Sonia Voirol and Daisy Chen.jpgWhen Grace Blue opened its doors ten years ago in London, its vision was to be the best global headhunting business focusing on the media and communications space.

To be the best requires creating the values of a business that is brave and inventive and cares about placing leaders who can really grow businesses.

The best requires creating systems and a rigorous process which ensures no stone is left unturned to find the very best candidates for each and every leadership role. The best requires a truly global operation.

Now with offices in New York, Singapore, Mumbai, Hong Kong and Shanghai, the Grace Blue Partnership is delighted to announce that Daisy Chen (pictured above right) and Sonia Voirol (left) will be joining as Directors of the Shanghai and Singapore offices, respectively.

Chen has over 10 years of consulting and executive search experience across Marketing Communications, Management Consulting, Financial Services, and Market Research industries. Daisy spent over two years at McKinsey as an Executive Recruiter, responsible for the firm’s senior lateral hires in Greater China, and prior to that at WPP China as Associate Talent Director, where she was responsible for executive recruitment and talent strategy for all WPP operating companies in Greater China. Chen will be based in Shanghai, working alongside Hilda Ng, and Stephanie Sun.

“After all these years, I’m so excited to be working with Daisy again, as I know there is no one better in the China market who has both the depth of experience and the connectivity to ensure that the Grace Blue Partnership continues to deliver an unrivalled service there, solidifying us as the China experts,” said Jean-Michel Wu, Grace Blue Partnership Asia CEO

Voirol has over 10 years of experience under her belt, with the last five years spent at Ogilvy & Mather where she managed multi-million-dollar integrated campaigns for global clients like American Express. Her strengths lay in brand, direct marketing and digital. She is very well placed to identify agency and brand side talent.

Voirol will be based in regional head office in Singapore alongside Jean-Michel Wu, Helen Duffy and Hilda Ng, and will focus on expanding both the agency and brand side roles within the region.

“I am delighted to welcome Daisy and Sonia. This will strengthen our team and allow us to take advantage of the opportunity to grow Grace Blue further into the media and communications space with particular focus on brands and management consultancies,” said Juliet Timms, Founder of Grace Blue Partnership.
