Multi-role interim recruitment for GMICS
For organisations in transition, interims can offer the flexibility and expertise organisations need to take the next step on the development journey.
Seymour John has managed a number of director- and senior-management-level assignments for me, always taking the time and effort to ensure that at all times they understood our requirements. To that end, they provided shortlists/assessments of a very high standard from which we were able to appoint for all the roles. The processes were painless and very professionally managed.
