Recruitment project breakdown

Our partner was experiencing rapid growth and realised they needed to make their first sales hire to keep up with the increasing demand. As the business expanded, it required additional support to manage the workload and continue driving growth.

The business needed a Business Development Manager who could take full ownership of their sales function from end to end. Operating within a niche market with limited competition, it was essential to not only protect their market share but also strengthen and nurture existing client relationships. Finding the right person to manage these critical responsibilities was key to their continued success, and they turned to deverellsmith to identify the ideal candidate.

Recruitment project solutions

Market mapping: Renee strategically used online and offline candidate platforms to map out the talent pool and identify outstanding candidates for the role. By leveraging these platforms, she was able to conduct a thorough market analysis, pinpointing individuals with the right skill sets and experience. Her approach involved not only searching for active job seekers but also engaging with passive candidates who might be a perfect fit for the position. Through this targeted outreach, Renee successfully uncovered exceptional talent that aligned with the client's needs.

Consultative approach: Renee connected with all six candidates she shortlisted from her market mapping efforts, conducting thorough phone conversations to explain the role and assess their suitability for our partner's needs. After completing this initial screening, our partner was impressed with the quality of the candidates and selected five out of the six for interviews. Throughout the entire interview process, deverellsmith provided ongoing support, even arranging for the final stage interviews to be held at our office to accommodate the partner's hiring manager, ensuring a smooth and efficient hiring experience.
