FISITA’s Challenge
Searching for a Technical Manager – an individual with technical experience who was able to move to a thought leadership role within our international membership community.
Why did FISITA choose to work with Copeland?
I had some previous knowledge of Copeland and was looking to work with a leading company on a specific project so it was a long term awareness that led to the initial discussion.
Copeland’s Solution
A detailed briefing was carried out for the vacancy to ensure full understanding. Before commencing the work we gave constructive feedback on the brief, candidate pool size, any anticipated challenges and timescales. Copeland then carried out searches – accessing our extensive network of automotive industry contacts – and created a bespoke marketing campaign for the role. Sourced candidates were fully interviewed and selected candidates were presented to FISITA. Copeland managed the interview arrangements, candidate feedback and job offer negotiations.
How closely did Copeland’s candidates fit your brief?
I was provided with an excellent shortlist, from which I held initial discussions with four outstanding candidates, all were very well aligned with my expectation.
What were the benefits of working with Copeland?
Julia made the process very efficient, her understanding and determination to deliver a positive outcome for us was a great experience. Julia is a pleasure to work with, just a great professional in every regard.
