Melanie Francis

Founder & CEO

A passion for languages. A profound understanding of the industry. Global Search RC was founded in 2020 by Melanie Francis to bring precision and care to language industry recruitment.

A native Welsh speaker with a track record of excellence in talent acquisition, Melanie has built the business around a simple idea: that recruitment in this industry is too specialist, too high-stakes, and too human, to be left to generalists.

Today, Global Search RC supports growing language businesses across five continents — from independent localization specialists to global language technology platforms — with talent strategies that translate ambition into measurable, repeatable results.
