Scaling an Aerospace Team to Meet Rising Demand

A manufacturer of aerospace turbine engine components needed to rapidly expand its technical and leadership team to support rising order volume. Operating in a rural area within a limited talent market, the client faced narrow candidate volume, low workforce mobility, and strong competition for experienced engineering, finance, quality, and operations professionals. 

Leveraging its specialized expertise, Sigil's Aerospace & Defense Recruiters executed a focused and ongoing, contained search strategy. The team tapped established industry networks, engaged active and passive candidates, and managed streamlined interview, offer, and relocation processes to deliver qualified talent as needed.

Over the course of a 2+ year ongoing partnership, placements have included:

• Director of Engineering
• Aerospace Manager
• Cost Accountant 
• Quality Engineers
• Quality Manager
• Industrial Engineer

As an exclusive partner, Sigil has successfully placed seven mission-critical professional hires, each completed in less than 30 days.

On an ongoing basis, these placements have enabled the company to meet increased customer order demand across its manufacturing operations, allowing new leadership to focus on continuous improvement and performance initiatives rather than recruitment concerns.
