The Hire That Rebuilt Confidence and Closed the Gap
When the first recruiter failed, Sales HQ stepped in and delivered fast.
ABOUT ZENDIT
Zendit is an emerging player in fintech infrastructure, building powerful payment solutions that simplify the way businesses transact. As they scaled into new markets, the need for executive-level sales leadership became critical.
But finding the right person to lead this growth, especially after a failed recruitment process, required more than a CV match. It required trust, speed, and deep commercial understanding.
Zendit’s most senior sales hire to date had gone off-track. Their initial recruiter failed to deliver candidates who understood the seniority, complexity, and commercial scope of the role.
The challenge
They came to us with one shot left to get it right.
They couldn’t afford a miss. They needed:
- A true Head of Sales/CCO-level candidate
- Someone who could shape go-to-market strategy and lead enterprise growth
- A recruiter who could navigate salary, seniority, and cultural fit without compromise
Services Used: Executive Search, permanent recruitment, video head-hunting
The solution
We helped Zendit secure a transformational sales leader. In senior hiring, timing is everything. And in this case, one outstanding hire changed everything.
We rebuilt the brief from the ground up, clarifying expectations, identifying past missteps, and targeting only the most relevant senior talent.
Within two weeks:
“Numerique has become an extension of our marketing team. They provide us with a robust digital strategy that we wouldn’t have been able to achieve without their support. Our marketing team is small, but with Numerique, we can accomplish so much more.”
- We delivered a strong, aligned shortlist
- One candidate stood out so clearly, Zendit hired them on the spot
- An urgent executive search to recover a stalled hiring process
- A shortlist of high-impact, high-fit commercial leaders
- Salary, role scope, and expectation alignment
- Follow-on support to help fill secondary roles through our network
The Results
Business impact
Within two weeks, we delivered a shortlist of high-impact candidates and secured a hire so strong, they cancelled the remaining interviews. This wasn’t just recruitment. It was redemption. The candidate had such an immediate impact, Zendit asked us to support a second critical hire – which our candidate personally helped fill.
