Recruiting Senior Executives is one of the most important activities an organisation undertakes and making a mistake can prove costly for many reasons whilst making the right decision can help an organisation achieve long term success.
Recruiting the right Senior Executives should be a key priority and working with a partner that understands your organisation and industry sector is essential to ensure the best, most able people are chosen.
The Enterprise Software industry is Millennium's specialist area.
During the past 15 years Millennium has established senior relationships with many of the world's leading software companies. Working with "C" level executives, we have become closely acquainted with these organisations and gained a real insight into their culture, future strategy and specific personnel requirements. This enables us to identify and successfully recruit the most appropriate people able to contribute to their long term success. Roles include: Professional Services Director, CFO, CTO, Marketing Director, R&D Director and Business Development Director.
Search Methodology
Initial client meeting: Confidential discussions held with key client contacts to obtain a clear understanding of the organisation, its objectives, culture, role and personal characteristics of person required.
Profiling: Company, role and person profiles and high level research strategy agreed with the client.
Research: Potential candidates identified using in-house research, database research and discussions with industry sources who can provide valuable, off the record, objective insights into individuals who may not be actively looking for a change but who may however be attracted by a new challenge.
Progress review: Strategy review sessions are held with the client to discuss targeted organisations and individuals, highlighting suitable candidates that have been identified during the initial search. During these sessions we provide feedback on market reaction to the client and the post, comparative salary data and any other information that the client may find helpful.
Initial screening: Suitable candidates identified are interviewed by Millennium and evaluated against the required criteria.
Short list presentation: Following a comprehensive search process a short list of between 3-5 candidates is presented to the client. This short list comprises a career synopsis, an insight into their personality, corporate cultural background, current employment situation, motivation for considering a move, career aspirations, current salary package details and future expectations. Resumes are included with the synopsis.
Facilitating: We work with both the client and candidate throughout the interview process providing advice as required.
The offer process: The preferred candidate is provided with support, information and advice to identify, articulate and resolve any issues that have arisen during the offer process and to ensure a successful resolution.
Referencing: References are employed and the results conveyed to the client.
Post appointment: Contact is maintained with both the client and candidate once the candidate has joined the organisation to ensure successful integration.
