Global Business Advisory

Management Set Up Consulting

Guidance to build the right management structure and leadership team for your Vietnam operations — before you have a permanent team in place.

Building the Right Leadership Structure, Before You Hire

Foreign companies entering or scaling in Vietnam often need a management structure defined before they have a team to fill it. EVOSYST advises on that structure and guides you through building it — we design the organization, define the roles, and coordinate the recruitment process with trusted local recruiting firms and the relevant authorities.

We do not place our own people to work inside your operation as your management team; we help you build your own.

Scope of Work — How We Work With You

01

Design Your Management Structure

We assess your operational requirements and design the leadership and management structure your Vietnam business needs — roles, reporting lines, decision rights, and accountability.

02

Define Critical Roles

We map the key leadership and management positions required, and define the responsibilities, profiles, and performance expectations for each one.

03

Build a Hiring & Succession Roadmap

We develop a strategic hiring plan and succession roadmap aligned with your growth trajectory and timeline.

04

Coordinate With Local Recruiting Firms

We guide and coordinate the recruitment process with trusted local recruiting companies — helping you identify, evaluate, and shortlist candidates for each role.

05

Coordinate With Local Authorities

Where the hiring process involves labor registration, work permits, or other authority-facing requirements, we coordinate that process alongside your legal and HR advisors.

06

Support Selection & Onboarding

We support your executive selection decisions and help structure onboarding and knowledge transfer for incoming leaders — without EVOSYST personnel occupying the role itself.

What We Deliver

  • Management & Organizational Structure Design
  • Leadership Role Definitions & Performance Expectations
  • Strategic Hiring & Succession Roadmap
  • Recruitment Partner Coordination & Candidate Evaluation Support
  • Coordination With Local Authorities on Labor & Work Permit Requirements
  • Onboarding & Knowledge Transfer Framework

Who This Is For

  • Foreign companies entering Vietnam without a management structure defined yet
  • Businesses restructuring their organization or going through a leadership transition
  • Companies scaling faster than their permanent hiring can keep pace
  • Founders and international boards who need an independent partner to guide the structure and hiring process, not fill the roles themselves

"We don't offer direct services — we make sure the right people do it right, and we're accountable to you when they don't. We are your trusted, independent consulting partner in Vietnam."

— M. K. Hasan, Founder & Managing Director, EVOSYST

Frequently Asked Questions

Does EVOSYST provide management staff or executives directly?

No. EVOSYST does not place its own personnel to work inside your operation as your management team. We design the structure, define the roles, and coordinate the recruitment and hiring process with local recruiting firms and authorities on your behalf. The leadership positions are filled by your own hires.

How does EVOSYST coordinate with recruiting firms?

We work with trusted local recruiting companies to source and evaluate candidates against the role definitions we help you build — managing the process, timeline, and communication so nothing falls through the gaps, while the recruiting firm handles the actual candidate sourcing and placement.

What does coordination with local authorities involve?

Where hiring involves labor registration, work permits for expatriate hires, or other authority-facing requirements, we coordinate that process alongside your legal and HR advisors — we do not act as your legal representative or perform the filings ourselves.

How long does this engagement typically take?

Structure design and role definition typically take 2–4 weeks. The full engagement through hiring completion varies depending on the number of roles and candidate availability — we build a realistic timeline with you at the start.

Can you work alongside an existing partial management team?

Yes. We assess what's already in place and design the structure to build around it — filling gaps rather than replacing what's working.
