## The challenge

Rubix's ambitious growth plans have created a large-scale hiring programme across a variety of group functions. These roles, spanning from cyber security to digital marketing all share the common thread of transformation. As a fast-paced, growing, P.E backed organisation, they required a quick turn around on deliverables to keep their environment efficient.

This is where Montash stepped in.

With positions scattered throughout Europe and tight timeframes to contend with, Montash have consistently delivered multiple placements while maintaining high standards of quality and service. The calibre of Montash's search and selection is demonstrated by Rubix's recognition that their candidates exhibit higher long-term retention rates post-placement.

Rubix have trusted us with pivotal hires across multiple verticals including business transformation, procurement, category management, supply chain, sales, pricing and digital / tech.

This achievement is a direct result of the Montash team's diligent efforts to grasp not only the technical aspects of the roles, but also the client's culture and values.

## The solution

![discovery_icon](https://montash.com/hubfs/discovery_icon.svg)

### 1. Discovery

Our discovery is slightly different for each vertical but stems from market knowledge: mapping out key competitors and related businesses and providing a solution to their hiring needs by presenting the most relevant profiles from these.

We have consultants that have recruited for senior positions at Rubix across Europe for several years, from which we have developed a substantial network. There are many ways we find professionals whether it is from LinkedIn, headhunting, referrals from our network or recommendations from the 90+ professionals that we have placed.

![selection_icon](https://montash.com/hubfs/selection_icon.svg)

### 2. Selection

Montash's Client Services team focusses on pulling out the relevant candidates from related businesses after the mapping is done, meaning we are ready to submit suitable profiles in a timely manner, only submitting a very strong, small pool of candidates for interview.

One key area of our selection process is really taking the time to explain our client's organisation and evaluating if the candidate has seen and overcome some of the challenges they will face and what value they can bring to the company: their salary expectations, experience, personality traits, industry/consulting background.

## Results

After years of partnership, we have a great understanding of what will make an individual successful within the business, ensuring retention levels remain high.

### I have partnered with Montash for 15 years across different roles and businesses. 

Montash have consistently delivered on their promise to find high quality talent at pace across different functions, seniority levels and geographic locations. In addition, the retention rate of Montash candidates in my current business is high, which demonstrates candidates were well briefed on our challenges and expectations as well as being thoroughly assessed against our requirements and fit.

Their search methodology and high perseverance are engrained in the company culture, which results in a consistent and high-quality delivery towards their clients, regardless of who one liaises with. I have traditionally relied on Montash for my hiring needs in technology, data and BI but have over the years tested them to deliver on challenging briefs in related functions such as business transformation, process improvement and supply chain with remarkable success.
