Requirement

We were contacted by a long term contact of the team asking for candidates for their next Financial Director as their current FD was retiring.

Solution

Using our extensive experience in the South West we were able to contact some appropriate candidates that due to our dedication to building relationships with both our clients and candidates we were aware that they were quietly considering a career move.  After talking through the advantages of the new role in a no pressure environment we were able to gather some interested candidates to send to our client.

Outcome

Several candidates’ information were sent to the client, who agreed that the majority of them were a good fit on paper. This resulted in some interviews which in turn resulted in a job offer for this role.

Next steps

As our candidate was not actively searching for a role at the time, the submitted their notice and a start date was agreed.  For their next recruiting requirement, these same clients have contacted us asking for our expertise to further expand their accounting team.

I was doubtful that someone of the calibre required would be available at short notice but Kate quickly came up with 3 immediately available very good candidates and I ended up in the fantastic position of being able to make a choice. The person I took was on Kate’s books on an exclusive basis and was just perfect for the project.
Rhiannon Phillips - Finance Director, South West
