Here's what our client said...
We asked Adam to find a Category Lead for us which he filled first time. This was an interesting assignment, due to the greenfield nature of the role candidates needed experience of change and implementation of new ways of working as well as core procurement skills. By working closely with Adam he ensured a high calibre shortlist and we appointed an excellent candidate.
