After securing new funding, ECS needed a recruitment partner to handle all their sales hiring.

Their CCO, Alex, reached out to a network of revenue leaders for recommendations, and Cosmic Partners came highly recommended. After a thorough review of potential partners, they chose to work with us because of our deep expertise in their industry.

With their internal recruitment team focusing on other areas, we stepped in to manage all commercial hiring. Using our structured process, we built a brand-new outbound sales team from the ground up, ensuring they had the right people in place to drive growth.

In Alex's words

Took the burden off us
"We’ve always found recruitment to be a bit of a numbers game, and in-house we just couldn’t assess quality properly at the early stages. Cosmic took that entire burden off us, but in a way that didn’t just repeat the problem. They didn’t flood us with candidates, they gave us only the best ones, meaning our time spent interviewing was genuinely productive. It was clear they understood what we were looking for, from both a skills and client acquisition perspective."
Cosmic Profiles were a game changer
"The candidate profiles Cosmic prepared were a game changer. Instead of wasting time on repetitive questions during interviews, we already had the key info in front of us. That meant we could dig deeper into decision-making and results, skipping over the basics. It’s something you don’t realise is missing until you have it, and it genuinely sped up our process without cutting corners on quality."
Like an extension of our team
"From the initial kickoff session, Cosmic made everything clearer and easier. Spending that time upfront meant we knew exactly what roles we were hiring for and felt confident moving forward. Their industry expertise and thorough approach made all the difference which made them feel like an extension of our team rather than just a service provider."
