Client Requirement

When the Head of Finance at Van Hage Garden Centres left the business for family reasons, they urgently needed an Interim Finance Director to help them through a period without a key member of staff.

They only had a month’s worth of notice, minus outstanding holidays, therefore it was absolutely obvious that they would need to move quickly. In addition, there was also some processing going on around the business where they weren’t completely sure of how they would want their forward structure to work.

The company needed someone with a fixed term contract, with little or no handover, who could operate from day one.

“I wouldn't have any hesitation in recommending FD Recruit to other people. They managed the process right through to the end and maintained an extremely professional manner throughout.”

Jonathan Crawley, CEO of Van Hage Garden Centres
