Financial Director – Specialist Manufacturer and Distributer
Client
An specialist manufacturer and distributer of household goods
Objective
The current Managing Director was aiming to retire within 2-3 years and wanted to recruit a Financial Director who could step up to the Managing Director role when this occurred. The business operated in a highly competitive market and the successful candidate needed to have some previous experience of working within the sector.
Method
Headhunting Financial Directors and Controllers from direct competitors in the company's specific sector.
Result
We were quickly able to identify a candidate from a direct competitor who was a good match. Only two candidates were put forward during the process, one of whom was subsequently appointed.
