Executive & Senior Manager Recruitment

Research has shown that Executive and Senior Manager Recruitment is one of the most time consuming and difficult functions a company can undertake, as well as being one of the most frustrating for company owners and directors. Is this a challenge you have faced and do not want to face again, or is it one you are about to face? Unless you have worked in a recruitment company it is likely you will have had limited experience at recruiting at a senior level, all the more reason to use the expertise of Sapio to help you with such an important task.

This is proven to be a very difficult area and is one that you probably have little or no experience of undertaking before. At Sapio Associates we have many years experience of running assessment sessions and candidate sifting. Most of this work has been done at manager, senior manager and director level.

All client needs are different which is why we will work with you to prepare a bespoke package to suit your individual recruitment needs.

The package can include:

• Job specifications.
• Regional or national advertising.
• CV Sifting.
• Full assessment centre sessions – on or off site.
• Role plays.
• Interviews planned and undertaken.
• Presentations planned and appraised.
• Personality profiling.

The benefits gained from using a full assessment day is that they allow you to get a good impression of the candidate in a number of different scenarios, most people can put on a ‘performance’ for an interview but few can keep it up for a full day in a pressurised environment.

Getting the right candidate at a senior level is critical, especially in small and medium sized organisations, the wrong candidate will take more time and effort from their colleagues and managers and can be very destructive, the right candidate will lighten the load on everybody, bring new vitality and allow the senior business executives to get on with running the business again.

Finally something to bear in mind is that ‘the art of delegation is in recruiting the right people first, thus making delegation easy’.
