Subsequent to Filcro Media Staffing being retained

FMS OIC TF participated in a number of meetings in New York City with the DGC who gave clear insights into the current and future plans for this critical environment within FedEx.

The DGC being a talented executive producer was looking for a distinctive feel to the current body of work of each candidate and provided reels of pieces in production currently that should be used as means.

Over 80 talented programming and production professionals were profiled from all over the world by Filcro Media.  When the top two candidates were placed side-by-side it was apparent to everyone involved in the search who would be the best fit from a creative and cultural perspective.

Candidates were sourced from Asia, South America, Africa and the United States.  The materials reviewed on each candidate were broad and included writing and production elements plus strategic justification statements.

Some of the challenges facing the new executive

FedEx and Filcro Media Staffing Corporate Comminications Executive Search Firms

  • Serving a Large and Varied Internal Client Base
  • Disseminating to Varied Audiences
  • Conveying Information to a Global Community of Diverse Cultures
  • Adapting Programming to Diverse Platforms
  • Setting Global Production Standards
  • Making Media Resources Apparent and Available to The Organization
  • Hiring and Managing Staff to Facilitate Rapidly Changing Needs

Solution

FMS proceeded to Identify organizations with specific "production" and “programming” environments that produce quality content similar to the client’s needs.

Recruiting from the identified universe in the United States proved to be more productive than any other market.  Based on the necessity of identifying an executive who could garner internal consensus and partner with those outside of media environments who had media needs, we needed a person who could convey ideas in “English” and not “Media” at times. The acceptance and assimilation into the corporate culture of a U.S. based Fortune 100 would make the balance of business, technical and creative skills a delicate undertaking.  Art versus science.

Successful candidate identified
