Wesfarmers builds a 7-person IT team with Latitude IT

The customer, Wesfarmers, faced a challenge with its IT infrastructure that required a complete overhaul and lacked the necessary internal technical skillset, particularly while hiring for a new CIO role. The vendor, Latitude IT, a long-serving recruitment partner, was engaged to provide executive search services to address this need.

Latitude IT identified and placed an ideal candidate who built a new team of seven from scratch and implemented robust IT governance programs. The vendor's solution included direct candidate approach and dedicated coaching through a complex interview process. This resulted in a significant change in organizational mindset, securing senior management buy-in and enabling major investment for Wesfarmers.
