Laurent Sauvageau
Consultant, Electronics and Machinery
Profile
After 7 years of being in the military in Canada, Laurent came to Japan in 2015. He worked as an English teacher, also as a salesperson in the automotive export business before joining BRS in 2021.
Laurent is specialized in the electronics and machinery industry, supporting professionals with highly technical skills and experiences.
Languages: English, French, Japanese (conversational)
From Montreal, Canada
In the electronics and machinery industries, where I specialize, companies tend to search for an extremely technical skill set and specific experience. It is rare that the details that those companies are looking for can be found easily on a CV and therefore, I take my time to communicate with each candidate thoroughly. This allows me to propose the jobs that perfectly match the candidate's skills, experiences, and needs. This is the same for the clients, I make sure that I capture the demand behind each search.
As a result, I have been able to support job changes of the similar positions across different industries and cultures - actively working with both Japanese and foreign-capital companies.
I understand that changing jobs can be a very big commitment and it can be challenging, especially for those in the electronics and machinery industry. This is why I always inquire about your current priorities, but also what you are looking for in 5 and 10 years time. I place great importance in having a long term view when supporting my candidates' career.
I am very thirsty for knowledge and I genuinely enjoy learning about what you do. Additionally, the more details you can tell me, the more equipped I'll be to support your job search.
Also, I am a father and a family man. I put a lot of importance on work life balance. If possible, please be open with me about your real goals, and we can work together to help you to achieve them.
