Placement of the week: Programme Logistics Lead

Pendy Hou and Hassan Khan from First Point Group's London office assisted their client, a networking and telecommunications company on their search to find a Programme Logistics Lead. 

Recruitment challenge:

The role was not experiencing the traction that the client had hoped for and they were unsure if they wanted it to be a contractor or permanent role. We took a proactive approach by forwarding a candidate we found that looked like a good fit for the Programme Logistics Lead role. Pendy Hou commented, “The process took longer than we had hoped, and the offer was lower than the amount the candidate wanted, however, the candidate really wanted to work for the client and wanted a permanent opportunity.” 

The result:

The entire process took around five months. We maintained constant communication with the candidate and always sent through anyone we deemed a good fit for the client. The candidate has taken on a senior position which will allow them to be involved in new projects and leading a team. Hassan commented, “This was our first permanent placement with this client, to which we hope will open more doors for us in the future.”
