Chris’s network delivered an extremely strong candidate

Job title: Chief Executive / Chairman, Salary: £150,000
Location: North of England, Sector: Transport & Logistics

“One of our business advisors introduced Chris to me, when our business had begun to suffer from slowing sales and a lack of clear leadership. It became obvious that we needed a Turn- Around specialist to come in quickly to galvanise the management team into action, give confidence to our bank and reposition the business for what was a new era. Chris’s network delivered an extremely strong candidate who we chose in preference to another candidate recommended to us by our bank. After a very successful turnaround, we have promoted him to Non-Executive Chairman as the group continues to prosper.
