Client names are withheld by agreement. The problems, the approach and the results are exactly as they happened.

Public Sector

Nineteen technical contractors for a provincial modernization program, on schedule.

  1. Challenge

    A provincial ministry needed analysts, developers and administrative specialists for a multi-year modernization program, each with government experience, each cleared, and each within a procurement framework that capped submissions per role.

  2. Approach

    We wrote a brief per role with the program office, ran skills assessments built around the ministry's own systems, and submitted only candidates who cleared all three checks. Our compliance team handled onboarding, payroll and clearance paperwork for every contractor.

  3. Result

    Every seat filled within the program's start windows. Several contractors extended into a second year, and the ministry now briefs us directly on new requisitions.

  • 19contractors placed

  • 2 yrsand counting
Financial Services

A security and compliance team built for a bank in eight weeks.

  1. Challenge

    A financial institution had lost two security analysts in a quarter and had an audit approaching. It needed analysts with genuine regulatory experience, quickly.

  2. Approach

    We mapped the security talent inside comparable institutions, approached quietly, and assessed each person on real audit and control scenarios rather than certifications alone.

  3. Result

    A team lead and three analysts in place before the audit. The client described the placements as stepping into its workflows seamlessly.

Technology

Senior engineers for a scaling software company in a highly competitive market.

  1. Challenge

    A growing technology company needed senior full-stack and cloud engineers and was competing with larger employers for the same small pool.

  2. Approach

    Direct approaches to engineers who were not looking, a technical assessment designed with the client's own lead engineer, and clear conversations about compensation using our live market data.

  3. Result

    Offers accepted at first attempt. The client told us our recruiters understood both the technology and the culture they were building.
