Lauren Bartmanis

Managing Director

Lauren has over two decades of talent acquisition experience, using international networks to recruit across organisational levels. She works with dealership groups, original equipment manufacturers, aftermarket businesses, finance and insurance companies, fleet management and car rental companies, and EV manufacturers. Her automotive recruitment relationships connect employers with talent across the GCC and international markets.

Lauren’s reputation among automotive businesses comes from long-standing relationships she builds with clients. Many now work with her exclusively, trusting her understanding of their business and her approach to finding the right people.

Finding experienced automotive people is difficult when the role, salary and available talent do not line up.
Lauren helps employers understand those gaps and agree a realistic brief before the recruitment search begins.
GMS sources candidates globally and regionally for automotive manufacturing and retail, from experienced managers through to senior executives and C-suite leaders.

Our international reach and automotive executive search experience connect employers with talent across the Middle East, Europe and beyond. Whether you are replacing a manager, changing business direction or expanding into a new market, we adapt the recruitment search to your requirements. Our specialist approach supports your business as it grows, helping you find people with the experience your organisation specifically needs.

Lauren has spent over ten years in the Middle East, focusing exclusively on automotive recruitment. Articles and publications have recognised her as a leader in executive search and recruitment within the industry.
