CASE STUDY
DISCOVER
STQ Partners care where a company has come from and where they want to go. Our Discover stage was vital for Yokogawa with their proud history of automation, control and measurement technologies. It revealed a vision of the future – including digital transformation, IIoT and AI-driven solutions – and uncovered key areas and markets within the Products business to capitalise on.
Although Yokogawa had advertised positions, traction was sluggish and they were unable to utilise their existing networks for unfamiliar roles. A new approach was needed.
On 4th April STQ Partners were instructed on six roles. We immediately assembled a project team to address their requirements for timely resolutions.
Launch calls were brokered with all respective hiring managers over the coming weeks. Despite travel and logistical challenges all calls were completed by the end of April, and we partnered closely with Yokogawa talent personnel on these initial roles.
Consult
Newly created roles meant there was a requirement to evaluate real-time market data upstream in the search. Key challenges included establishing: required salaries, available talent pools, requisite skills and experience.
Ultimately, we needed to be able to attract talent to an unknown entity (within these domains) in a fiercely competitive market for their backgrounds.
Q-Print analysis quickly provided salary benchmarking, ensuring Yokogawa could compose a competitive package and budget allocation for each role. This helped position themselves correctly in the market and with internal financial planning.
The promise of no compromises
The Q-Print also efficiently and effectively targeted businesses within the respective spaces which relevant individuals would likely work for or have worked for previously.
STQ Partners specialist project team executed on the positions as quickly as possible – without compromising on quality. Each search had an assigned professional ensuring advertisement, and crucially, comprehensive headhunting was dedicated to each role. This in-depth analysis enabled STQ Partners to quickly establish a market map and recruitment strategy.
We were subsequently able to discreetly engage with top operators in the market with an informed, coherent and compelling offering.
Execute
The flexibility of our Q-Print approach allows for roles to be phased over the lifetime of a project and retainers redeployed as briefs change. The proof is clear with Yokogawa’s brilliant new talent already on board – with more in the pipeline.
