Human Resources: CALIDAD COCHES: MOVING AHEAD Recruitment Advertisement for the Site Manager Position

Echoes the Company Ethos

Calidad Coches is seeking 7 site managers through internal recruitment of employees now working in Mexico (parent country nationals) to join the company's rapid, aggressive expansion into the car rental trade of Belize. We anticipate a short turn-around of 4 weeks for the management staffing, rebranding and operational retooling of the former BAR sites before the tourist season kicks into high gear. Fortunately, the company has built considerable good will and trust through promotional opportunities and careful succession planning. In its 30-year history, Calidad Coches has developed international expertise informing cross-border expansion through strategy-driven, team-based excellence. The secret of Calidad's high return business and consistent success is our focus on quality customer service. The company is now capitalizing on the lucrative tourist trade supported by Belize's great beach recreation and Mayan history. Based on the success of our business in Belize, Calidad Coches intends to pursue long-range growth in the Central American and Caribbean regions. Presently, the company requires your assistance in identifying existing employees having the expertise needed to deploy right now to the Belize project (Coderre, 2010).
