3 key positions. Filled within 2 months.
Our Client
Our client is a globally active pharmaceutical company specializing in pain therapy, whose operations encompass the development, production, and international distribution of medications designed to treat both chronic and acute pain.
Problem
Despite intensive efforts, our client was unable to fill three critical leadership positions within the manufacturing division over a twelve-month period—vacancies that concerned central management levels for various production steps—as neither internal recruitment measures, consisting of traditional job advertisements, in-house sourcing, and targeted social media postings, nor collaborations with three personnel service providers led to success, creating a prolonged vacancy in core operational management that posed a significant risk to process stability.
Our Approach
Our solution was based on a combined sourcing strategy that synergistically linked three central recruitment pillars: the core was formed by access to our exclusive internal network within the pharmaceutical industry, which was complemented by targeted social media campaigns to increase market visibility, while parallel intensive active sourcing was implemented to directly engage top-tier talent who were not actively seeking new opportunities.
Results
- Week 3: Presentation of the first qualified candidate profiles.
- Week 5: Commencement of the structured interview processes.
- Month 3: Successful placement of all three leadership positions.
