John Hired a Head of Operations

“The process gave me confidence. Good people are not unemployed, and Remotivate helped us secure the best at the right time.”

The Intro:

John, CEO at Seller Candy, an Amazon Agency, needed to hire an Operations Expert for his business.

He had already hired for this role in the past.

“They just weren’t the right level of experience”, “they worked in a company smaller than ours, and they didn’t know the steps to get to the next level.”– said John.

So, he decided to get Remotivate’s help.

 

Key Outcomes

  • 187 Applications Processed: Ensured a wide-reaching search for the right talent.
  • 13 Interviews Conducted: Thorough vetting to identify qualified candidates.
  • 8 Candidates Shortlisted: Presented to John for final interviews.
  • Role Filled in Under 2 Months: From mid-May to early July, the position was secured.
CLIENT NAME:

COMPANY NAME:
Seller Candy
INDUSTRY:
Information and Internet
LOCATION:
United Kingdom

The Challenge:

Initially, John hired a consultant full-time to act as the Head of Operations. However, this team member lacked the expertise needed to help Seller Candy grow to the next level.

John soon recognized that hiring a top management role required more than just experience—it demanded proven expertise. “The level of experience doesn’t always match the level of expertise required for those roles,” he noted.

The real challenge was finding someone who had “already walked the path before” and could take ownership of operations.

And that’s the type of candidate Remotivate found for John.

The Solution:

Remotivate actively invited over 600 candidates, resulting in 187 applications. Through a rigorous review process, 13 candidates were interviewed, and 7 were shortlisted and presented to John for final interviews.

“It was great not having to go through 100 applications myself,” John noted, appreciating the efficiency.

The Results:

For a top-level management position such as COO/Head of Operations, Remotivate exceeded expectations by delivering within seven weeks.

He’s great, he’s an amazing guy… He’s impacted many parts of the business—from delivery to communication—and I feel very confident that he can run the business without me being there.”
