Senior Leadership Team built for private equity backed neurological care provider 

Compass Associates were mandated by a private equity backed specialist provider of neurological care to support the senior management team build of their business – including an interim, and contract, Director of Nursing & Quality, and a Hospital Director.

Following the board appointments of the new Chief Executive Officer, and Chair, by sister company – Compass Carter Osborne – the provider was looking for a provider who had the knowledge and relationships in the market to be able to source a number of exceptional candidates to strengthen their senior leadership team. The Director of Nursing & Quality interim vacancy was created owing to the preferred permanent candidate working their notice period, and as such required an immediately available option until the point where the full-time candidate would be able to assume the role. 

The Specialist Care division at Compass Associates has an established relationship with the client, alongside an unmatched network of available talent who would be suitable for the headcounts. The client was keen to see profiles who had strong management skills, committed to the role, and had the personality to drive the business forward. For the quality mandate, they needed someone who would be comfortable working in an environment where transformation was required and would not shy away from a very hands-on role. 

For the interim headcount, Compass Associates were able to immediately introduce an available candidate who was offered an immediate start; whilst the permanent headcount saw two candidates be engaged in a three-stage process before the offer was extended and accepted first time. 

The Hospital Director vacancy had previously been worked by another recruitment business with limited success. Compass Associates introduced six candidates, four of whom were interviewed, with two taken to final stage. The successfully identified candidate accepted at first time of offer.
