Process
We undertook in-depth briefings with OHCAT’s key stakeholders, including the CEO, members of the Executive Senior Leadership Team and the Chairs of both boards. We used this information to design a bespoke digital candidate pack and role description which was shared with prospective candidates. We undertook a thorough search process against OHCAT’s brief, and, after understanding our needs and requirements, we sourced 23 high-performing applicants from a range of professional backgrounds, focusing on social and professional diversity and our brief.
OHCAT were very impressed with the calibre and quality of all applicants and shortlisted 12 individuals to take forward to interviews, which we had also designed and tailored to meet their needs. We took care of the administration, and the booking of candidates in conjunction with OHCAT’s internal HR team, arranging the interviews quickly and efficiently.
We spend time with each candidate to ensure they were fully briefed on the requirements so that they could present the best versions of themselves on the day.
