Case Study: a leading European manufacturing and engineering firm achieves rapid PMO leadership hiring with Pacific International

Leading European Manufacturing and Engineering Firm - Customer Case Study

Pacific International was engaged by a leading European manufacturing and engineering firm to support its rapidly growing electrification business unit. The client's challenge was to find an expert Director of Program and Portfolio Management for North America. This was a newly created, pivotal role responsible for leading customer delivery programs and managing major strategic projects, and the client's own search had failed to identify suitable talent.

Pacific International's executive search team leveraged its global network across US and European offices to deliver a diverse shortlist of qualified candidates within three weeks. The successful candidate, who had a strong background in electrification and an inclusive leadership style, was identified, interviewed, and hired within one month. Pacific International's solution enabled the client to quickly onboard a key leader who immediately began developing a plan for the new PMO, and the vendor was subsequently retained for additional leadership mandates.
