What recruitment challenges did they face?

The company sought a highly skilled Chief Marketing Officer who has strong leadership skills to manage a diverse team and a consistent track record of growing market share. As this person was key to their change and transformation programme, they wanted to tap a wider talent pool despite having some probable candidates from referrals and through other search partners. As their contacts were more limited outside of the insurance industry, they approached Robert Walters for help.

From our talent pool, Robert Walters shortlisted a total of 10 candidates and they were submitted within six weeks from the initial engagement with client.
