KINSEY ALLEN INTERNATIONAL OPENS BOSTON OFFICE

Executive search firm Kinsey Allen has opened a new office in Boston.  Kinsey Allen International says the office will focus initially on key hires within the asset management market and will employ five members of staff by the end of the year. 

The office will be run by new hire Katie Vande Water, who joins as Director and Head of Asset Management – US.  Vande Water previously worked in in-house search for Wellington Management Company LLC, Putnam Investments and spent several years with a global executive search firm.  She will report into Zak Allom, Global Head of Asset Management and Managing Director of Kinsey Allen International Hong Kong. 

Ken Brotherston, CEO of Kinsey Allen International says, “Boston is the command centre of investment management in the US.  The city is also New England’s financial and business hub, so we see this as playing an important part in our expansion across the country.  Our approach of deep functional and market knowledge - which is so rare in search consultancies - will hold us in as good stead there as it has in New York.  And Katie’s excellent pedigree in asset management recruitment will play a significant part in the Boston office’s success.” 

Kinsey Allen International opened a Doha office in March.

Dillistone Systems Incoming Orders Have More Than Doubled The Level Achieved Last Year

Dillistone Systems, the leading global supplier of executive recruitment software, announces that the firm has enjoyed an excellent start to the year, with incoming orders for FILEFINDER for the first four months to have more than doubled the level achieved during the same period last year.

(London & New York – June 7, 2010) Dillistone Systems, the leading global supplier of executive recruitment software, is proud to announce that the firm has enjoyed an excellent start to the year, with incoming orders for FILEFINDER for the first four months to have more than doubled the level achieved during the same period last year.

At the Annual General Meeting of Dillistone recently held, Mike Love, Chairman of Dillistone, made the following trading statement: "The directors of Dillistone ("Directors" or "Board") are pleased to report that the Company has enjoyed an excellent start to the year, with incoming orders in the first four months being more than double the level achieved in the equivalent period of last year.  While the market remains somewhat patchy, and prudently we should anticipate that some periods will be stronger than others, this positive start nevertheless gives the Board reason to believe that non-recurring revenues are likely to be higher in 2010 than in 2009.  As stated in our 2009 results, recurring revenue was the highest it had ever been in 2009 and we currently expect 2010 to exceed this level.”

"Dillistone remains debt free. Our ongoing investment in product development expenditure on FILEFINDER underlines Dillistone's commitment to maintaining a market leading position and makes the Board confident about the long term performance of the business. Given the Company's strong balance sheet, and subject to continued satisfactory trading, it is the Directors intention to maintain dividend payments in 2010 at 2009 levels," he stated.
