Aware - Mass Retail Data Monetization Scale-up - Recruit the CEO's leadership team
With the CEO in charge of setting up the company, a data monetization subsidiary of a major French food retail group, create the entire management team from scratch to get the business up and running very quickly
COO, CTO, Chief Product Officer, Head of Engineering … (15 roles)
The scale-up grew from 0 to 50 employees in two years, and from the very first year was profitable, meeting the targets set by the Group
As the CEO of a newly established data monetization business for a leading retailer, we’ve been collaborating with Uman Partners at a key moment of our expansion: scaling the start-up from 10 to 60 people. We needed strategic and senior key additions to the team and have built a successful partnership with Uman Partners that has been fundamental to our success.
What we found with Uman Partners is a confirmation of expertise in the field of (senior) data & AI recruitment: they truly understand the data requirements and bring an extensive candidate network to fill key positions on the business side (e.g. Chief of Staff, Chief Marketing Officer) as well as technical side (e.g. Head of Data Engineering, Senior Data Engineering, Data Manager).
Furthermore, Uman Partners turns out to be a partner you can rely on and their impact goes much further than the pure identification of suitable candidates – they take the time to understand the business context, adapt to constantly evolving and changing needs, and are able to pitch your initiative into a competitive data talent market. With that they achieved what we wanted : an access to an above average talent pool.
I can only recommend their services to any company seeking data & AI talent: their passion, professionalism, speed, agility and great value have been keys to success for us!
