Senior Operational Management Position

The client, a mid-sized local company, needed to fill a senior management position in its operations department. This role was crucial for overseeing key projects and driving strategic initiatives. Despite extensive advertising and engaging multiple local recruitment agencies, the client struggled to find suitable candidates over the past year. Although they received numerous applications, most candidates either lacked the necessary qualifications or didn’t fit the company culture. After several months, a promising candidate was identified through direct outreach. However, this candidate required flexible working hours, which the client could not accommodate, leading to the candidate declining the offer.

Frustrated by the lack of progress, the client reached out to us for assistance. We conducted a comprehensive review of the job requirements and previous recruitment challenges. Understanding the client’s needs and the direction of the business helped us communicate the bigger picture to potential candidates, allowing them to envision their career growth within the company.

We leveraged our extensive network and industry expertise to identify potential candidates. We pre-screened various candidates and shortlisted three who met the brief, including some with slightly more experience than required. All shortlisted candidates were interviewed, and one was offered the role.
