Case Study: Sourcing candidates for a project in a remote part of Switzerland
The situation
One of our partners, a global biopharmaceutical company, was building a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Switzerland.
The location of the site build was remote and not connected to major cities, which meant the client was concerned that their own network of professionals would not be sufficient to complete the site build on-time and within budget.
The Hobson Prior solution
Hobson Prior has a team of Swiss-based recruiters who were able to use their specialist knowledge of the local market to identify the necessary permanent hires for the site build. Also, because Hobson Prior has a license to employ contractors in Switzerland, we were also able to hire over 70 contractors which were needed as part of the build project.
The result
We helped our partner to hire a number of professionals in QA, engineering, manufacturing, scientific and logistics, as well as HR and data science roles, over half of whom were already in Switzerland when they were sourced. This meant the build project was completed on time and within budget and we have been helping them grow ever since.
