The challenge:

Our client urgently needed an HR Manager with a minimum of five years regional experience, to be based in Sudan, following a resignation. They reached out to us as this was not a market that they had any experience in, and recent changes in policy and labour law made this a more complex hire.

Our solution:

We completed a market map of all HR Managers who met the criteria in Sudan and from there we contacted them to establish who was open for a new opportunity. We also uncovered candidates who were open to relocation to the region.

The outcome:

• The position was filled before the 4-week deadline, so that a handover with the outgoing HR Manager could take place

• The time and resources saved gave the client confidence to work with us again on a variety of roles in various international locations
