Finding commercial talent that can actually deliver

Finding high-performing sales and commercial talent has never been harder. As former sales managers, we know this first-hand. 

A limited budget, coupled with a lack of time and recruitment know-how – not to mention the fierce competition for talent makes building a world-class team a challenge. The result: stalled growth, thousands lost to miss hires, high-levels of staff turnover and low team performance and motivation.
