Osborne Talent Acquisition supported our recruitment efforts for a new CEO from start to finish. They helped us develop the right profile for the individual we needed and then oversaw a process that resulted in a significant number of very qualified applicants.

Osborne brought both expertise and capability to help us validate and plan some significant organization changes which we felt we needed to meet operational challenges and position the business for the future. Osborne helped us communicate the changes to our wider leadership team and then fielded an Interim Executive to help us deliver them. The Interim Executive adapted well to our organization and successfully stabilized and improved our hospitality operation so that we are entering the winter 22/23 season with much-improved capability and confidence. He also ran a successful recruitment process for us to fill the role on a permanent basis with a strong candidate joining us in time for the start of the winter season. I would highly recommend the services of Osborne Interim Management for both consultancy projects and provision of interim executives.

Our Executive Director left us at a critical time in the Park’s development. We couldn’t afford normal search firm fees and needed to expedite a campaign as soon as possible. Osborne knew our business and our urgent situation. Working with their partners at ScoutTalent they found us a tremendous candidate within 60 days of starting the campaign. It was both an effective and efficient process.
