Background

A cloud-based unified communications platform that empowers productivity and delivers insights across the enterprise by enabling simplified business voice communications, flexible video conferencing, and always-on collaboration. Formerly ThinkingPhones, this company allows the modern, mobile workforce to seamlessly communicate anytime, anywhere, across any device.

Original requirements

Initially, this company was working with 2 recruitment agencies that were failing to deliver the quality and quantity of talent that was needed for expansion.

Due to Oakstone’s extensive experience in assisting SaaS companies expand into EMEA, their EMEA VP approached Oakstone in November 2018 to source 4 salespeople in the UK. Whilst working on these hires, the company additionally invited Oakstone to source people in France, Benelux and Germany, working alongside their internal recruiter, Director of Talent Acquisition in the US and each of the Regional VPs across EMEA.

Oakstone’s solution

Oakstone’s solution was to conduct a thorough search to focus on the right calibre of talent and present the opportunities clearly and concisely.  This enabled Oakstone to put forward the right talent that was in line with their expectations.

Continuous and effective communication, along with extensive market and industry knowledge made Oakstone the ideal partner to assist the company in its talent search.

The future of the Oakstone Partnership

Oakstone will continue to work alongside their internal recruiter, Regional VPs and Hiring Managers as they continue to grow to assist them in their further expansion into EMEA.

6 successful hires in 6 months – across sales, sales management and presales.
