CASE STUDY: PRIVATE MEMBERS CLUB

PRIVATE MEMBERS CLUB

Club Managing Director, COO &  CFO

  • We have closely been working with this exclusive client since early 2021
  • We undertook a retained, confidential search for a Club Managing Director role in early October 2021
  • We had several briefing conversations with the Chairman to really understand the needs of the business
  • We undertook a candidate mapping, to provide the hiring team with a strong understanding of the market
  • On reviewing the mapping, we identified a small list of target candidates and were able to refine the search and introduce further candidates
  • After signing an NDA, we hosted a first-stage open day, introducing seven candidates to the chairman
  • The interviews were extensive and were held in our London office
  • The open day identified 2 candidates who were strong fits, and were then booked in for 2 further interviews with the board team. Additionally, we were able to introduce a third candidate to this process.
  • By Christmas 2021 the shortlist was reduced from three to two. Both candidates were tasked to present in-depth business plans in January 2022. By February 2022 the successful candidate was offered the role and started within three months.
  • We ran similar searches for this client's holding company in 2022 for a COO in and a CFO in 2022/2023 which were both also successful.
