The question
A newly formed joint venture, with well-known parent companies but no employer brand of its own, needed to recruit a full leadership layer and keep recruiting as it grew. The first search was for a Head of IT.
The approach
A discovery phase with senior executives, site visits and a review of results, values and plans produced a briefing pack used on every search. For each role we approached more than 100 people, ran first-stage interviews ourselves, and gave the client live access to search data through an online portal with weekly KPI reporting. Shortlisted candidates received a personality assessment and insights report.
The outcome
Head of IT, Head of Procurement, Head of Quality, Head of Health and Safety, Head of Payroll, Head of Transformation, Head of Bid Management and a Commercial Director appointed. Every retained search completed. After each one the client receives a full report on everyone spoken to, for use on future roles. The partnership continues.
