The Challenge
The Head of Business role required a candidate with exceptional leadership experience and industry expertise. Despite interviewing numerous candidates, the client struggled to find the right match due to the high standards expected for this strategic position.
After the initially placed candidate relocated to another regional role, the client faced the challenge of filling out the same leadership position again. Their internal teams and regional recruitment partners were unable to connect with suitable candidates, particularly passive professionals not accessible through conventional platforms.
Our Approach
Leveraging our deep understanding of the diesel generator and industrial equipment sector, MyWorld mapped and identified top-tier passive candidates. By strategically targeting individuals with relevant experience and leadership capability, we were able to reach the right talent where others could not. We proactively engaged the client when we anticipated challenges in replacing the relocated Head of Business, ensuring we could support the search before delays escalated.
Our approach combined:
- Industry-specific talent mapping
- Personalized outreach to passive candidates
- Close coordination with the client to understand key competencies and leadership expectations
