Sweden's H&M (Hennes & Mauritz) giant has appointed Carlos Duarte to supervise its Romanian operations starting next year, when it is set to open at least six stores in March-April alone.
"Carlos Duarte, who was a country manager in Poland and Switzerland, will fill the same position at the Romanian subsidiary. The rest of the management team has already been chosen domestically, but the recruiting process is not over, yet. We're still seeking employees for our stores," Charlotta Namlin, a press officer with H&M, told ZF.
Unlike its rivals Inditex or New Yorker, which chose their management from among Romanian managers, H&M selected a manager from inside the group to start and develop the domestic business.
The company started recruiting for middle-management positions as early as September. After having disclosed the commercial spaces it subsequently started to fit out, the company also sealed contracts with businessman Iulian Dascălu for Iulius Mall of Timişoara and Cluj and for the shopping area of Palas project of Iaşi.
