Helping to establish a new UK Production Facility

Having been successful in placing a Head of Planning into a bakery and ingredients business, Chameleon were invited to support the company across Quality, Procurement, Engineering and Operations.

Working exclusively with the Group Quality Director, Group HR Director, Commercial Directors and the Group Operations Manager, Chameleon were tasked with leading mandates across Quality, Engineering, Operations and Agribusiness across Europe.

The company are growing a new site in the UK, where Chameleon successfully placed a Head of Quality, Head of Engineering and Head of Operations. Additionally, we are working with the company on delivering their next requirement, a National Agribusiness Manager.

Chameleon worked with the client to produce a target list of companies, from where our search team then headhunted suitable employees. We managed the entire first round interview process with the shortlisted candidates including understanding their suitability for the role, qualifying their interest in joining the new venture and deciding which candidates were then presented to the client for final interviews.

Chameleon have been successful in placing six out of their seven retained mandates within the business, and are close to finalising our seventh appointee.

Our consultants have also successfully placed a Global Process Improvement Manager into a different global agribusiness and food company.
