Perfect fit for a close-knit senior team
The objective was to find and recruit a Non-Executive Director with both a rare and specific set of skills for a UK SME, specializing in the development of solutions for the Nuclear industry. It was imperative that the candidate had the drive and personality to enhance a high-achieving and well-established management team.
The challenge: What made this assignment particularly challenging, was the difficulty in finding a person with the right skills combined with the right personality to fit into a niche executive team. The candidate needed both experience with regulatory and compliance issues in nuclear decommissioning, along with a Legal background or profile.
Managing the task: We began by producing extensive insights through industry and regulatory bodies, along with focusing our search on current professionals within the sector across the whole of the UK. This produced a much wider pool of talent.
Outcome: After careful interviewing and in-depth research around prospective candidates, we were able to shortlist three people within three months. Our client was left with a tough but desirable problem of choosing the candidate from the 3 shortlisted who could effectively deliver within their niche management team.
