One of the largest multinational toy companies in the world was looking for a Strategy Director, APAC.
The client previously contacted another recruitment agency on this newly created vacancy but they were unsuccessful in filling the role after eight weeks.
Through a referral, Argyll Scott was engaged to source for a strong shortlist of candidates and fill this urgent position within a short timeframe.
The challenge:
As the opening was previously handled by another agency, a number of suitable candidates had already been approached
There was a pressure to deliver within a short timeframe as the vacancy had been open for a long time
There was a degree of ambiguity in the search mandate as it was a newly created position reporting into someone overseas
Our approach:
Immediately called the five best relevant candidates and cleared them for the client
Managed both the client’s and candidates’ side to ensure a smooth outcome
The outcome:
Offer Accepted: Strategy Director, APAC
Completed Time: Four weeks
