The relationship

Although our relationship with the business is relatively new, our Senior Sales Specialist quickly built a great relationship with the organisation’s hiring managers to understand the business ethos and recruitment priorities.

For our first recruitment partnership, Flogas required an Area Sales Manager in the South East to replace a well-established team member. With continuing growth in region and big shoes to fill, the company required a very specific specification of candidate. The successful person would need to be experienced across a wide range of B2B, including hotels, retail, industrial and healthcare, due to the business’s diverse customer base.

The result

Following an extensive search, Heathcote Recruitment Group (formerly ESA Group) were delighted to have placed the best candidate available. Regular communication between us and Flogas really helped to cement who would be the best fit for the company.

Further to above, we are pleased to be working with the business to look for additional Sales Managers in Scotland and Business Development Generators, who are to work out of the Leicester Head Office.

We look forward to working with Flogas in the future as they continue to dominate their sector.

The testimonial

“[They] have, from my initial conversation, taken time to fully understand the criteria for the vacant position. This resulted in them a suitable applicant in a matter of days. Interviews took place and a job offer was made to a candidate within one week. The process was conducted in a professional manner from start to finish.”
