Succession planning has been identified in the Corporate HR Plan as a key initiative for addressing a number of critical human resource issues including: • An aging workforce • Increasing turnover rates • Fast-paced changes in work, and • The need for a diverse workforce at all levels.

Globally, all communities are susceptible to natural hazards and businesses are vulnerable to human-caused disruptions. The majority of small-to-medium sized businesses are unprepared for disruptive events, while big ones are also impacted. Consequently, communities become vulnerable when their economic base is shaken by said disastrous events.

Research indicates that 40% of businesses never reopen after a disaster and 25% of business that do reopen fail within a year. Finesse Consults has specialized skills to design customized Resilience Strategy for your organization.

Why use a professional agency when hiring?

When you are recruiting you should be going after top-shelf, A-level candidates. These types of candidates need to be recruited. Why? Because they’re not actually looking for a job! They’re employed, passive, and busy leaders who are accustomed to finding new job opportunities through their network, connections, and referrals.  If you ask an HR professional or another employee to reach out to these top leaders, they’re most likely not going to get a response let alone get past the gatekeeper. Executive recruiters, on the other hand, have built up connections with top executives over the years and have access to these very inaccessible people and their networks.

How does the recruitment process work?

Depending on your needs we offer recruitment services on specialist, manager, or executive level. The recruitment process is carried out as a search, executive search, or headhunting – either as an official open process or as a closed and confidential process, depending on your decision. Our executive recruiting consultants and researchers are considering candidate availability, benchmarking against others, and finding candidates who not only have the necessary experience and expertise, but also fit into the corporate culture. We draw on our high-level professional networks, industry knowledge, and internal research resources to identify the right people.

Advantages of our services:

  • Save money by making the right hire the first time
  • Grow into new markets and industries
  • Scale your company for growth
  • Define changing executive roles and responsibilities
  • Conduct talent assessments and reference checks
  • Provide executive coaching
  • Compete for top talent
  • Expand candidate diversity
  • Create succession plans
  • Find new members for your board of directors
  • Keep a search confidential
