Matthew Cooper
Managing Director
My Background
I began my recruitment career in the UK back in 2005, partnering with multinationals to attract the best finance & accounting talent into their business. After 7 years in London, I relocated to Asia and spent 5 years in Singapore, focused on mid to senior-level finance search across the SEA region, before relocating to Kuala Lumpur to lead Ambition's Shared Services and Commerce & Industry divisions in Malaysia.
Roles I Recruit For
In addition to co-running the Malaysia office, I recruit senior leadership positions within Commerce & Industry, predominantly GM/MD level searches.
My teams specialise in recruiting Finance & Accounting, Supply Chain & Procurement, Human Resources, Sales & Marketing, and Engineering positions within Commerce & Industry and Shared Services/Global Business Services in Malaysia.
Outside of Ambition
Like many, I love to travel and explore new places, cultures, history, and architecture. I have been fortunate in being able to visit some incredible countries around the world. I am an unashamed bookworm and am always reading something new – anything from the classics of literature to autobiographies and historical fiction. I also enjoy cooking, entertaining, Formula One, and golf.
