Support the client's GBM business growth
Focus on a prioritized list of 130 jobs
Ranging from junior software engineers through to senior architect/project managers

We created an internal account team, which included an account director, a manager, a senior consultant and three specialist consultants.

The project team provided weekly reporting and regular check-in calls with HR in the UK, Hong Kong and China. We also dedicated two half days on-site for meetings with line managers.
