Case Study

Michael Page Executive Search was retained by one of the world’s leading payment processing companies to recruit a European Head of Commercial Development. The brief was to identify an Executive from the Banking Technology Sector who would assume responsibility for shaping and directing their European client development strategy.

In order to broaden the initial candidate population, a highly targeted European search and advertised selection programme was utilised, designed to attract candidates from particular competitors and the broader banking technology industry. A qualified shortlist of six candidates was presented five weeks after initiation. Our client was able to appoint one of the leading experts in the industry, as well as offering a second candidate on the shortlist a position in the European organisation.

Testimonials

“We asked Michael Page to do what we always ask executive search firms to do: "Put in front of us the top people from our competitors." We normally get to see one, are told that a couple of others were not interested. And maybe one or two could not be contacted. You provided us with the number one person from each of our top 5 competitors for interview by our EMEA President. This was an outstanding hit rate. You backed it up with several other senior candidates - from other industries and from further down the target organisation - to ensure we had a fantastic choice to pick from.”
