Challenge
Mark, owner of a UK-based software events business, felt overwhelmed by daily tasks. He needed a Chief of Staff with marketing expertise to manage his workload and spearhead his annual software event – but finding the right fit was proving difficult. He'd already tried a competitor, facing impersonal service and hefty upfront fees.

Solution
Pearl Talent prioritized understanding Mark's specific needs, company culture, and desired skillset for the Chief of Staff role. We then conducted in-depth consultations to ensure a targeted talent search that prioritized cultural alignment and long-term success. Our meticulous approach resulted in a curated pool of exceptional candidates for the client's consideration.
Pearl Talent has been brilliant. I was unsure about what would happen but they spent a lot of time discussing my issues. They sent me two candidates for interview, both had been well screened and they have videos of themselves talking about what they have done.
