TRIED & TESTED

A tech led Scandinavian company with no market penetration in the UK sought a leading candidate to drive sales in this market. We worked with the client to create a job specification, inform them about the potential opportunities and threats of the UK market as opposed to on the continent. We agreed a timescale and a process for the hiring process. A successful placement was made within 3 weeks, the first person appointed has since made additional UK hires and the organisation are among the fasted growing payroll companies within the UK.

UK Market Entry

TRIED & TESTED

A Leading UK based payroll provider sought a Head of Sales for a new division to focus on working exclusively with private sector blue chip clients. This was a particularly difficult role as not only did it require a candidate with expert knowledge of the industry and legislation, it required a candidate with the gravitas to command respect from companies operating with internal payroll of in excess of £100m per annum. Within our immediate network was a candidate we had engaged 2 years prior who specified this would be their ideal next move. After introduction, this candidate was offered and accepted the role, and within a year has progressed to directorship.

Creation of a new division

TRIED & TESTED

A start-up small payroll provider had been experiencing a static period and were seeking external applicants to stimulate new business, however were using their own network which had not been yielding results. After some negotiation, the client agreed to let me provide some alternative candidates, of which the first I introduced was successful. Within 3 months, this candidate had doubled their revenue, and within 6 months had been promoted to Sales Director. This provider is now recognised as one of the most respected growing providers and have expanded their sales force by an additional 3 people since the original placement.
