Our client, a Fortune 100 CPG brand, embarked on a significant digital transformation by establishing a new Digital Office, led by a recently appointed Chief Digital Officer, to support and enhance B2B online ordering across a vast network of distribution channels serving over 200,000 customers. This initiative required the rapid hiring of 30 highly specialized functional and technical employees, all within compressed timelines to support the critical new product deployment. With no existing talent acquisition processes or a formal Talent Acquisition function in place, the client engaged our Talent Solutions team to develop and execute a comprehensive hiring strategy to meet these objectives.

This included sourcing and managing the talent pipeline, training client leadership on the new interview process, and establishing a new employment brand identity. As a result, the client successfully hired all the required roles on time and under budget. The partnership not only met the hiring deadlines and DEI objectives but also delivered significant cost savings compared to traditional staffing options.
