CHALLENGE

Tantalus Systems is a technology company dedicated to helping utility businesses modernise their distribution grids by harnessing the power of data across all deployed systems.

Tantalus Systems reached out to Pangea Talent Solutions in 2024 for help finding a new role, a Sales Director. The company was at the point of closing several significant enterprise deals, meaning the team were busy focussing on their clients whilst needing a Sales Director immediately. Previous attempts at finding quality candidates suitable for the role had been thwarted by mismanagement from other recruitment partners; either with candidates lacking the right skills or when candidates were presented, often accepting other offers or showing a lack of engagement. This delay in securing the right candidate was not just inconvenient but posed a serious risk to the company’s strategic business objectives, potentially jeopardising their high-value deals.

SOLUTION

Anum Ali, Principal Consultant at Pangea Talent Solutions, a recruiter from Pangea, stepped in after several months of discussions with Tantalus Systems’ Leena Al-Hajjar, Vice President, of People & Culture. Understanding the critical nature of the role, she swiftly leveraged her expertise in this niche market, where she had built a strong network of highly qualified candidates. Utilising Pangea’s existing vast database of skilled candidates, and her hotlist of pre-vetted candidates, Anum was able to present a shortlist of five exceptionally strong sales execs within just a few days. Her approach was efficient and targeted, ensuring that the candidates were not only fit to do the role, but also a cultural fit for Tantalus Systems.

 

"I was highly impressed with your initial job screening process. Your ability to accurately assess candidate qualifications and cultural fit was evident from the beginning. Moreover, your consistent communication throughout the hiring process ensured that we were always informed and updated on the progress. I’ve also appreciated how easy you’ve made it for us to consume candidate information and the approach to briefing candidates prior to starting interviews. I am extremely satisfied with the quality of service provided. Your dedication to excellence and commitment to client satisfaction make you deserving of recognition."

RESULTS

In February 2024, a Sales Director was appointed. This swift and effective placement allowed the company to proceed with their enterprise 
deals without further delay. As a result of this successful engagement, Tantalus Systems now views Pangea as a trusted recruitment partner and 
continues to work with Pangea in multiple future roles, solidifying a long-term partnership.

 

"Working with Anum has been exceptional. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to finding the right candidates have made the hiring process smooth and efficient. Her responsiveness and willingness to address any concerns or questions has been top-notch."
