The perfect MD is hard to find

7th April 2024

When a global industrial chemical organisation found themselves struggling to find the right candidate for a vacant Managing Director role, they turned to Netiro partner Stefan Hart. 

Stefan was retained by the EU-headquartered corporation for one of their subsidiary joint ventures, a UK-based business with brands in multiple countries. Having gone to market for the role themselves, they’d found a lack of candidates that met their stringent requirements. 

Challenge 

Our brief was to source an experienced professional with global engineering or speciality chemical experience, knowledge of the UK, Europe, North America and Asian markets, and a willingness to work out of the UK.

Understanding 

With more than 30 years’ experience supporting businesses in the industrial sector across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, Stefan was able to quickly assess the requirements and ambitions of the brand’s leadership team and assist in honing the brief through market mapping and competitor research. 

Process 

Stefan used his extensive network and Netiro’s high-level research capabilities to quickly establish a tailored list of high-quality candidates. And following in-depth interviews, profiling and filtering, we presented a shortlist of four – all highly qualified for the role, with varied psychological traits and personal qualities. 

Success

Netiro supported the client through a series of thorough interview and engagement sessions, and managed communications across the offer process to successfully appoint of the perfect candidate.
