Successful Landings

As the economy continues to improve, Ayers’ outplacement team is seeing fewer downsizings and more landings.  Following are a few of the more recent success stories.

 

§         While searching for a new position, the former CTO of a global financial institution volunteered to serve on the board of a small wireless company looking to expand service.  The firm, a Mobile Virtual Network Operator, subsequently acquired the marketing rights of a Japanese company with financial problems.  Tapping the executive’s experience in managing a broad spectrum of technology in the international arena, the board appointed him as president.  He has taken on the challenge of launching the MVNO’s new Japanese business sector.

 

§         An Associate Attorney from the New York office of an international law firm hoped to land as Assistant General Counsel in a locally based corporation.  Mounting aggressive networking and recruiter-contact efforts over the course of his three-month program, he received an offer from a company headquartered in Manhattan, negotiated the desired compensation package, and took on his new responsibilities in February.

 

§         A senior technology executive from a multinational financial services firm recognized the need to expand his search horizon.  Deciding to target hedge funds, which gained $60 billion in assets last year, he worked with his Ayers consultant and research analyst to identify prospects.  After three months, the candidate landed an excellent position that matched his previous compensation.
