Manufacturer In Transformation: Makes Key Leadership Hires

Client’s Challenge

A Milwaukee based wholesale manufacturer with a reputation for being both customer focused and solution oriented, wanted a reliable talent acquisition partner to fill key leadership roles. They understood the time and energy it would cost to recruit for these positions themselves. “Although the marketplace is full of recruiters, many did not like our assessment process and did not take the time to learn our business; in general, recruiters have bombed us with resumes that don’t really fit and when we would not like the candidates, they (recruitment partners) would just leave” (President, manufacturing company). 

Talent Growth Solution

The President engaged Talent Growth because of their consultative approach, responsiveness, and proven process. They had worked with Maria Groves on a prior engagement and knew her level of commitment to creating successful business outcomes. Talent Growth invested the time to learn the client business and hiring process allowing them to refine the position requirements and provide additional insight into the target candidate qualifications. Cutting edge research, passive candidate recruitment and communication throughout the search provided the optimal solution and desired outcome.

Outcome

Talent Growth delivered an overall value to the client business. They filled the important
leadership roles, but more importantly, the candidates hired have remained in the positions long term.You delivered several high-quality individuals that are performing well in their roles” (President, manufacturing company). Talent Growth will be the first call should we have other talent related initiatives – consulting or recruitment.

It’s a pleasure working with Maria. She has taken the time to learn our business and helped us refine the specific requirements of the positions she has filled for us. She is responsive and communicates the progress she is making on a search. Her process works as she has brought to us several high performing individuals.
