Scott Rosenthal

Project Manager: Paper, Packaging, Industrial Automation & Process Solutions

Company Description

Corrugated Temporary Display Manufacturer

Job Title

Project Manager

How long was client searching prior to our involvement?

The candidate was originally presented for an Estimator position; however, by the time the presentation was received, the employer had already filled that role. Recognizing the candidate’s strong background and potential fit, the employer referred them to another department for consideration as a Project Manager.

Did client have internal recruiting resources?

The client does not have an internal recruiting team and was relying on online job advertisements to attract candidates.

Why was this a real problem for the client?

Without this Project Manager, the client risked delays in production schedules, miscommunication between design and manufacturing, and potential missed deadlines for retail display rollouts. This gap was already starting to lead to costly inefficiencies, reduced customer satisfaction, and lost business opportunities during critical campaign timelines.

How did this opportunity help the candidate?

This opportunity provided the candidate a chance to leverage their estimating and production background in a more strategic, client-facing role. It offered greater ownership over projects from concept to completion, enhancing their leadership experience and career growth within the display manufacturing industry.
