Methodology of the recruitment for a Sales Director at Beauty Works
The Challenge
The client sought an experienced Sales Director to join their team in Cheshire, requiring a candidate who could support their international growth. They valued diversity and opted for blind CVs at the shortlist stage. We needed to find candidates who matched the client’s industry, business model, and culture.
The Approach
Laura, our Recruitment Board Director, sourced four suitable candidates, three of whom progressed to the second stage. She maintained a thorough understanding of the client's needs, communicated effectively, and provided detailed information throughout the process. Her efforts ensured the client’s needs were met with candidates who matched their skills and experience.
