A lot has been purported about the global war on talent. Purported is really the wrong word to use, as it is very clear that strong candidates for all positions, not just senior vacancies, are in high demand.
Last month I worked with the global leader of uPVC systems for the window industry in recruiting a newly created Commercial Director role to the UK board. The below case study and link to my article outlining the process both myself and the client took in securing the right person, is the perfect example of how all stakeholders need to operate in todays market.
I hope it helps guide you and, at the very least, opens your eyes to the amount of work and collaboration required in todays job market.
Through a detailed research approach and contact with his existing network, Mark Goldsmith was able to share the current “landscape” of required talent from a business to business, product led background. This led to 111 potential candidates to approach, Mark then engaged with them directly. Collingwood also ran a social media & advertising campaign.
