A Dutch manufacturer of chemical coatings was faced with a problem. Their HSEQ manager had left the company, and the remaining team on the ground was unable to manage the company’s HSEQ requirements. The manufacturer wanted to recruit a new long-term HSE manager but
needed immediate expertise to ensure they remained compliant.
The company approached several suppliers, including Shirley Parsons. We discussed the issues and challenges and presented a range of options, including outsourcing, permanent recruitment, and interim support. The client decided they needed an interim HSE manager while they searched for the ideal candidate for permanent employment.
Our team began the search for the ideal interim candidate by going through our extensive network of freelance professionals. We focused not only on the necessary HSE experience, but also on the personal skills needed to work in a chemical environment.
Our team was aware of the urgency of the situation, so we were able to provide the client with 3 well-qualified interim HSE managers within a week.
After reviewing all three candidates, the client selected one with several years of relevant experience. His pragmatic approach will support him in improving the company’s HSE and compliance position. Meanwhile, Shirley Parsons is supporting the manufacturer in identifying and recruiting an ideal long-term permanent HSE manager.
