Client Objectives

  • A faster hiring process
  • Access to better-quality, product-experienced candidates
  • A confidential Project

The Challenge

A competitive market and a shortage of experienced field sales leaders with sector knowledge and existing relationships. Conventional channels were not delivering.

The Solution

A full talent map across the region and sector identified active and passive candidates. We ran a targeted headhunt, engaging people directly and presenting the client’s market position, growth plans and culture to those who would never respond to an advert.

The Results

Completed in eight weeks from launch to offer. The appointment strengthened sales performance and supported expansion of the team inside the first year. Two further searches followed, and all three are still in post today.

Testimonial

“What we valued most was Cloud 9’s grasp of exactly what we needed. Every candidate matched the brief, which saved us time and meant we only met the right people.”  –  Commercial Director, Confidential
