A global technology leader faced a critical need to revamp its sales force to meet aggressive growth targets. The urgency intensified when the company's Chief Revenue Officer was dismissed, and an interim was appointed. ​

The client's Director of Talent Acquisition partnered with LevelUP, leveraging our proven track record in multi-location team building, including our success in establishing the client's Dublin office.

Solution

PHASE 1: RAPID SCALING

  • Hire 150 sales representatives within six months, under the interim’s direction with the purpose of enhancing business as usual activities and establishing a strong sales foundation for the incoming CRO

PHASE 2: STRATEGIC REALIGNMENT

  • When the new, permanent CRO joined, they identified a misalignment between the interim-hired team's skills and their vision
  • LevelUP's agile response: Fill 100+ newly issued roles within three months to backfill and realign the sales team

In less than nine months, as their RPO partner, LevelUP successfully:​

  • Recruited an entire global sales team
  • Managed the turnover of the initial hires
  • Backfilled positions to align with new strategic direction
