an old acquaintance

This afternoon I met with an old acquaintance - a headhunter I'd met with in the frantic days before I ultimately left Japan in late 2010. It turned out that he'd also gone "home", in his case to Mongolia. Unlike me, he'd launched a successful business and now owns the largest placement agency in that country. He's back in Japan to branch out to this country. In particular, he wants to start bringing his countrymen here.
He said he'd look into roles for me, and I told him I'd put him in touch with an executive search agent I know - someone who might be able to get his business going here.
