Our client exclusively commissioned Redfox, following an industry recommendation, to source a General Manager for their thriving niche agricultural supply business that has over 300 suppliers and a large multinational as their dedicated end customers. The client had been searching themselves but could not find the personal character and strategic awareness of individual in the market to take the reins and to drive the business forward to its next growth stage.
Max MacGillivray and the Redfox team took a full brief from the client and understood the unique nuances of such a business and what was required. A recruitment process of marketing, networking and defined headhunting was deployed to find the client the best of the best for the role in question. The ideal candidate was selected and started with the business earlier in the year. We recently contacted the client to find out the new General Manager was settling into the business.
“It’s been a few months since our General Manager joined our team, and I wanted to take this opportunity to share my thoughts on his performance.
To be honest, I was a bit nervous about our decision to appoint him as he was such a crucial role that I had been running alongside the rest of our faming businesses. However, I must say that our apprehensions were completely unwarranted. He has proven to be an invaluable asset to our team.
Since he joined us, he has displayed an exceptional level of competence and adaptability. He was immediately thrust into the demanding harvest, and not only did he rise to the occasion, but he also contributed significantly to the success of the operation. His ability to handle high-pressure situations with composure is truly remarkable.
What sets him apart is his depth of knowledge and his unwavering commitment to the job. Whenever we have a question or need a solution to a complex problem, he responds promptly and with a level of detail that is simply impressive. He’s not just quick on his feet; he’s quick with a spreadsheet too! His dedication to his work has made a significant and tangible difference in our operations.
Moreover, his arrival has allowed my father and me to reclaim some much-needed time for ourselves. We can now focus on tasks that we should have been tending to, thanks to his diligent work ethic and reliability.
In summary, I want to express my gratitude to you and the team at Redfox for your assistance in helping us find our General Manager. He has proven to be an outstanding addition to our team, and we consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have him on board. He deserves full marks for his contributions and commitment. Thank you Redfox.”
