Bekasi, Cikarang and Karawang form one of the largest industrial areas in Southeast Asia. Thousands of factories, from global automotive and electronics groups to Indonesian manufacturers, compete here for the same managers, engineers and specialists.
Talent Hunts Indonesia is a recruitment agency serving companies in Bekasi, Cikarang and Karawang. We fill roles at every level, from technicians, engineers and supervisors to managers and plant directors, across production, quality, supply chain and the commercial and support functions that keep a manufacturing business running. Our consultants know the industrial estates along the Jakarta–Cikampek corridor and the people who work in them.
Whether you are opening a new plant, replacing a key manager or building a team for a new production line, we deliver a shortlist of candidates who have the right technical background and will settle into your organization.
Doing Business in Bekasi, Cikarang and Karawang
East of Jakarta, the Bekasi and Karawang regencies have grown into Indonesia's main manufacturing hub. Toll roads, rail links and short distances to Tanjung Priok port and Jakarta make the area a natural choice for companies that produce for both the domestic market and export.
Industrial Estates
Most companies operate in managed industrial estates such as Jababeka, MM2100, EJIP, Lippo Cikarang, GIIC Deltamas, KIIC and Suryacipta. Each has its own mix of industries and its own community of professionals.
We know which estates host which industries, so we know where experienced candidates for your role are likely to work today.
A Manufacturing Base
The area is home to automotive assemblers and their component suppliers, electronics and semiconductor plants, chemicals and building materials, food and consumer goods, machinery and metal works.
Many of these companies are Japanese, Korean, European or American, working alongside fast-growing Indonesian manufacturers.
The Talent Market
With so many plants close together, experienced engineers and managers receive frequent offers, and good candidates rarely apply to job adverts.
Hiring well here means approaching people who are not looking, presenting a clear offer and moving quickly before a competitor does.
