GDS' Cardiff office has had an excellent 2011. Revenues are up significantly on 2010, which Sales Director Oliver Stebbings puts down to "great products and a strong management and human resources structure."
The company is looking to continue this growth through 2012.
"In this tough economy, I am incredibly proud that GDS is creating new job opportunities for the right people," says Tudor Williams, GDS International's VP of HR. "Especially in my hometown!
"Well-trained people are our greatest asset and we know the talent pool in and around Cardiff is very strong.
"With our industry leading training and development programme, and innovative new starter process, there has never been a better time to join GDS. We are looking for highly motivated, ambitious, proficient sales people who are hungry to grow their careers and skills."
Over 450 staff around the world delivers real business value for GDS' clients through 80 summits and 20 conferences for a diverse range of industries, including IT, financial services, social media, and telecommunications.
"We want to achieve world-beating client value and the Cardiff office is a vital part of our strategy for 2012. It is essential that we strengthen our team with the right level of quality sales and event executives.
"Each candidate will possess excellent communication skills, be highly motivated and able to illustrate a track record of high performance and achievement.
"We offer full industry sector training, a leadership development program developed for GDS, a clear career path and international travel.
"Two years ago we opened our office in Sydney, Australia with a small, dedicated team managing a small number of GDS' senior executive summit products.
"Within a year that office had expanded significantly, we transferred some key UK staff, recruited more local staff, opened more products offering excellent career opportunities for everyone in Sydney, and travel opportunities for everyone in the company. We intend to do the same with Miami!"
