< Back Strengthening Cybersecurity & Network Access Control A global manufacturing company partnered with Interval to enhance its security posture through improved Network Access Control. The project has significantly improved network policy compliance, visibility, and device governance across global operations. Situation Following years of organic growth and acquisitions, the client’s IT estate had become fragmented, with a mix of systems and inconsistent operational models. Despite IT spend exceeding 10% of annual revenue, the organisation’s digital maturity remained below the level required to support its strategic ambitions. Coupled with this, critical vulnerabilities in the IT environment had been identified. Investigations identified weaknesses in End User Computing (EUC), particularly inconsistent compliance with Network Access Control (NAC) policies. In response, the client launched the NAC Project as a key initiative to strengthen its cybersecurity defences and ensure consistent network protection across its global footprint. Approach To lead the NAC improvements, the client identified the need for deep subject matter expertise in Forescout, their chosen NAC platform. Interval was engaged to provide a specialist NAC Consultant to deliver the technical scope of the project. The key objectives were to: Review, update and deploy NAC policies Increase policy compliance across device types Improve overall network protection Provide training and resources to the client's IT teams to ensure the outcomes were sustained Our consultant worked closely with the client's Infrastructure and Security teams to review and address almost all sites globally. Custom workflows were developed for key device categories including Windows, macOS, Servers, IoT, and Storage. After securing agreement from device owners, a successful pilot was run at a single site before workflows were rolled out globally. Compliance monitoring was strengthened through regular reporting, automated alerts, and both user acceptance and penetration testing. Outcomes Phases 1 (pilot) and 2 (global rollout) were delivered on time, with the pilot completed within two months and full deployment within six months. The project enabled the identification and remediation of a large number of non-compliant devices - significantly reducing risk and strengthening the organisation’s cybersecurity posture. Additional value was delivered by integrating third-party systems into Forescout, increasing transparency and improving visibility across the NAC infrastructure. With a more secure EUC estate now in place, the client is in a position to explore BYOD and virtual desktop solutions as secure, cost-effective ways to provide internal access to resources.

< Back Pipeline growth through digital and performance marketing in Medtech Building compliant, high-quality demand through targeted digital marketing in a regulated healthcare environment. Challenge An emerging MedTech player was struggling to generate consistent inbound demand in a highly regulated market. Marketing activity lacked focus, digital performance was difficult to measure and strict compliance requirements limited the use of standard campaign approaches. Sales teams relied heavily on outbound activity, resulting in long sales cycles and unpredictable pipeline. Solution Interval supported the client with a blend of marketing strategy, compliant digital execution and specialist resourcing . This included refining messaging to meet regulatory standards, restructuring website content for clarity and trust, launching compliant SEO and paid search campaigns and implementing robust performance tracking. Interim marketing specialists were embedded to work closely with internal compliance and commercial teams. Outcome Inbound enquiries increased by 50% within six months Marketing-qualified leads increased by 40% while maintaining compliance standards Improved visibility of campaign performance and ROI Reduced reliance on outbound-only sales activity The client retained Interval to support ongoing digital marketing optimisation and campaign delivery.

We provided a specialist who improved system access, resolved incidents, ensured audit readiness, and strengthened compliance - resulting in a more secure, efficient, and future-ready SEN environment. Situation A federal employment agency with over 113,000 employees needed expert support to advance the development and administration of its on-premise SAP Enable Now (SEN) platform. Key priorities included enabling Single Sign-On (SSO) and LDAP login for SEN Manager, managing incoming incidents, supporting external SAP OSS tickets, and preparing for an important SEN audit. The project demanded specialist skills in SAP Enable Now, Active Directory, MS-SQL databases, security concept creation, accessibility, and agile working practices, all delivered in German and in compliance with EU employment laws. Approach We supplied a highly skilled SAP Enable Now Consultant who integrated directly into the client’s SAP development team, working alongside the internal SEN Single Point of Contact (SPOC). The consultant took responsibility for: Analysing and implementing SSO and LDAP login solutions for SEN Manager Handling internal SEN incident tickets and resolving user issues Raising and tracking external support tickets with SAP OSS where necessary Assisting with audit preparations by reviewing SEN configurations against compliance standards Ensuring security, accessibility and database best practices were followed Work was carried out within an agile framework, ensuring continuous collaboration and progress visibility.

Internal incident management processes became faster and more reliable, reducing downtime and enhancing system stability. External SAP OSS tickets were handled professionally, ensuring complex issues were escalated and resolved without delays.

< Back UK Go-To-Market Acceleration (Retail Lead Generation) for an EU SaaS provider A leading European SaaS provider specialising in content syndication and digital asset management for brands and retailers engaged Interval to accelerate its UK market entry and secure high-value retailer partnerships. Overview A leading European SaaS provider specialising in content syndication and digital asset management for brands and retailers partnered with Interval to accelerate its UK go-to-market (GTM) strategy. With international expansion as a priority and a proven footprint across multiple markets, the business needed immediate UK traction, executive-level retailer engagement and a trusted local network to build pipeline quickly and sustainably. Interval supported the engagement as a strategic growth partner , providing hands-on commercial execution to unlock senior decision-maker access, accelerate early partnership discussions and establish a scalable foundation for long-term UK growth. Situation Entering the UK retail landscape requires more than outbound sales activity. It demands local credibility, strong senior relationships and a clear value proposition aligned to retailer priorities, speed and commercial risk tolerance. The client was preparing to launch in the UK with a dedicated Account Executive. However, the business required earlier market momentum to ensure that UK sales execution began with active conversations, meaningful relationships and a credible partnership narrative already in place. Key challenges included: Limited time to establish UK retailer access ahead of commercial ramp-up Need for introductions to senior decision makers across Digital, Marketing, Sales and C-level leadership Requirement to position the platform in a way that reduces adoption barriers and accelerates conversion Need to build a trusted UK partner network to amplify reach and increase qualified lead flow Objectives Interval was engaged to deliver tangible UK traction by focusing on the most commercially valuable outcomes for a market entry phase: Establish high-level connections with key UK retail stakeholders Accelerate early-stage conversations leading to retailer partnership opportunities Strengthen GTM positioning for the UK market with a clear, value-led message Support adoption by enabling low-risk commercial options to reduce barriers Build a partner ecosystem capable of generating ongoing UK opportunities Approach Interval acted as a strategic UK growth partner rather than a traditional lead generation provider. We embedded a senior UK-based GTM engagement specialist into the commercial effort, bringing deep retail sales experience and executive-level credibility. Our approach focused on enabling UK market access and traction through: 1) Executive access and introductions We prioritised the creation of direct pathways into UK retailers through an established senior network, targeting stakeholders who influence platform adoption and content syndication strategy. This included connections into marketing and digital leadership, as well as commercial decision makers. 2) Value-led GTM positioning A key factor in UK market entry success is clarity. We supported UK positioning and messaging to ensure the proposition resonated with retailer needs, emphasising tangible outcomes and reducing perceived risk at the point of adoption. This included framing options such as risk-free access models and commercial flexibility to accelerate initial onboarding conversations. 3) Retail partner and ecosystem activation Beyond individual retailer conversations, we began establishing a UK partner ecosystem to increase credibility and generate a broader flow of qualified opportunities. This created additional market coverage beyond direct outbound activity and supported a scalable lead generation engine aligned with long-term growth. 4) On-the-ground commercial execution The engagement was delivered with a hands-on execution mindset, supporting practical account development and relationship management in the UK market. This provided continuity and momentum for the incoming UK sales function. Outcome Interval helped the client establish a strong UK commercial foundation by accelerating what typically takes months: access, credibility and pipeline creation. Key results included: Faster engagement with senior UK retail stakeholders across relevant decision-making functions Improved clarity and confidence in UK GTM messaging and positioning Initiation of a credible UK partner ecosystem to extend market reach Increased readiness for the UK Account Executive ramp-up, with momentum already in place Overall, the business was able to successfully convert early UK retail opportunities into partnerships, drive adoption of its content syndication platform and build sustainable growth in the UK market.

< Back SAP SD Implementation for an Automotive Company Interval supported a global automotive leader in preparing for a major SAP S/4HANA migration - analysing core sales processes, engaging key users, and driving change awareness. The result: faster buy-in, clearer vision, and a solid foundation for transformation. Situation A multinational manufacturer of luxury vehicles and motorcycles required updates to its core enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform, SAP, which was already well integrated into its IT environment. As both business processes and SAP solutions had evolved significantly since the initial implementation, the organisation sought opportunities for improvement to stay ahead in the highly competitive automotive sector. To address this, the company wanted to understand the business and competitive advantage potential of moving to SAP S/4HANA. The project team started by analysing existing SAP R/3 processes and produce recommendations for new SAP products and solutions within S/4HANA that could be adopted either group-wide or in selected regions. The scope included: As-is analysis Awareness sessions with users To-be recommendations Use cases Demonstrations Recognising the need for deep expertise across the broad range of SAP modules, the client engaged Interval to provide a specialist in SAP Sales and Distribution (SD). Approach Interval provided a dedicated SAP SD Consultant to support the delivery. The engagement began with a series of sessions involving key users to raise awareness of the programme and collect feedback on pain points to explore further. Using this input - alongside SAP forensic data, SME insight and direct interaction with SAP - the team analysed the gathered information to create a detailed current vs. target state roadmap. The consultant, a certified SAP professional with deep knowledge of the latest innovations, was able to advise with high precision. All findings and recommendations were fully documented to support steering committee review and eventual implementation. Outcomes The first phase of the project was delivered in just four months, ahead of schedule and within budget. The following phase began immediately afterwards. Given that the last major SAP upgrade had occurred over a decade ago, change management was a key pillar of this project. The programme successfully raised awareness of new SAP solutions among key users, who left the sessions more confident and better prepared for the S/4HANA transition. Increased visibility into the risks of remaining on legacy platforms helped secure swift leadership buy-in. The project also delivered process maps, system demo recordings, and setup manuals. The client has since approved the move to SAP S/4HANA, with the broader programme now underway. It is expected to run for several years and bring meaningful improvements in efficiency, process integration, and system security. Previous Next

< Back Marketing Talent Acquisition in a Multi-Delivery Environment Demand for high-impact marketing talent has grown significantly across our client base and within Interval itself. From brand strategy to digital campaigns and interim leadership, organisations needed experienced professionals who could deliver fast, measurable results. Interval set out to tackle this challenge by delivering efficient and innovative marketing talent that could be scaled up or down as needed. Situation Marketing is a critical function for both our clients and our own business. Over the past 18 months we’ve seen a sharp rise in demand for high-impact marketing professionals – spanning brand strategy, digital campaigns, content, performance marketing and interim leadership roles. Clients needed trusted consultants who could deliver measurable outcomes fast. At the same time we recognised the importance of elevating our own brand and go-to-market strategy through top-tier marketing expertise. Approach Interval built and activated a dedicated talent pool of marketing professionals – including consultants, freelancers and interim managers – with experience across industries such as technology, professional services, consumer and public sector. We focused on sourcing candidates who combine strategic thinking with hands-on delivery and who can seamlessly integrate into client teams or take full ownership of marketing initiatives. Each profile was carefully vetted for creativity, commercial thinking and the ability to drive results in short timeframes. We removed typical barriers to entry, such as location, by focusing on outcomes rather than physical presence or "shift patterns". We’ve deployed this expertise both externally – supporting clients with product launches, rebrands and digital marketing campaigns – and internally, where consultants have helped redefine our visual identity, tone of voice, social presence and content strategy. Outcome Our marketing consultants have delivered tangible impact across a variety of engagements – including increased campaign conversion rates, brand repositioning projects, improved stakeholder engagement and measurable ROI on digital spend. Internally, we’ve benefited from the same level of excellence. Our consultants helped elevate Interval’s own marketing presence, creating clear and compelling narratives that reflect who we are and what we do – with standout results in client acquisition and brand visibility. This case demonstrates our dual strength: recruiting best-in-class marketing talent and knowing how to deploy it effectively for maximum impact. Previous Next

< Back Critical / Rapid Incident Response Delivery Services Interval deploys verified specialist consultants in as little as 24–48 hours, helping organisations respond to critical delivery risks, stabilise programmes and maintain momentum across cybersecurity, cloud and business transformation. Overview When a business faces an urgent delivery risk, there’s rarely time for lengthy hiring cycles or traditional procurement. Whether the cause is a cyber incident, an unexpected resignation, a stalled programme, operational overload or a major compliance deadline, leadership teams need the same thing: immediate access to trusted expertise . Interval provides a rapid response capability for clients across multiple industries, delivering highly skilled, verified specialists at short notice , with the commercial flexibility and delivery mindset required for high-pressure environments. We don’t simply “find CVs”. We deploy practitioners who can integrate fast, take ownership and deliver outcomes. This case study highlights how Interval supports clients when speed is mission-critical, drawing on real scenarios while reflecting our wider rapid-response delivery model. Situation Large organisations and fast-growing businesses alike face moments where delivery becomes time-sensitive and high stakes: A cyberattack triggers urgent remediation and hardening requirements A critical leader or technical specialist leaves without notice A programme deadline is approaching and delivery capacity drops Stakeholders demand progress visibility and stabilised governance Compliance expectations increase and internal teams are already at capacity In these scenarios, delays create commercial risk, security exposure, reputational damage and operational instability. Clients need a partner who can move at pace without sacrificing quality. The Interval Rapid Response Model Interval’s rapid deployment model is designed to deliver speed and certainty, without compromising the standard of resource or delivery outcomes. 1) Verified specialists, not “available candidates” We prioritise pre-vetted consultants and experts with proven track records in complex environments, including public sector, regulated organisations and global enterprise teams. 2) Fast mobilisation with clear accountability Rapid response requires more than introductions. We support mobilisation from day one, ensuring clarity on scope, objectives, stakeholders and delivery ownership. 3) Delivery-first approach Interval operates as a consultancy-led partner. Our resources integrate quickly and focus on outcomes, not just activity. 4) Cross-industry capability We regularly deploy experts across multiple domains, including: Cybersecurity and IT risk Workplace and collaboration platforms Infrastructure and cloud Programme and project leadership Business analysis and change Data and enterprise applications Examples of Rapid Response Delivery Cybersecurity response following a cyberattack In one engagement, an organisation required an urgent security uplift following a cyberattack, including global IT and Active Directory hardening . Interval deployed a verified cybersecurity expert in under 24 hours , enabling immediate remediation and stabilisation work. Delivery took place during the Christmas and New Year period , demonstrating the practical reality of rapid response: the situation didn’t wait for business hours and neither did Interval. Impact delivered: Immediate specialist capacity during a business-critical incident window Accelerated hardening activity and security improvement delivery Reduced risk exposure through fast remediation execution Workplace stabilisation after an unexpected departure In another scenario, a major workplace transformation programme faced delivery risk due to an unexpected departure . The workstream involved the migration of 14,000+ users from Google Workspace to Microsoft 365 , requiring both technical capability and stakeholder confidence. Interval deployed a verified Workplace Solutions expert in under 48 hours , stabilising the programme and enabling continuity without the delays of sourcing, interview cycles and onboarding. Impact delivered: Programme continuity restored immediately Reduced delivery risk and improved leadership confidence Sustained migration momentum for a large-scale user population Outcome Across urgent and time-sensitive engagements, Interval consistently enables clients to: Mobilise specialist capability in 24–48 hours , not weeks Stabilise critical programmes during high-risk phases Maintain delivery momentum when internal capacity is limited Reduce security and operational exposure during urgent incidents Improve stakeholder confidence through rapid, credible execution Overall, Interval has proven to be a trusted partner for rapid response resourcing across industries, combining speed, quality and delivery accountability when it matters most. Why Interval Rapid response is not a volume recruitment exercise. It requires judgement, verification, access to specialists and a delivery mindset. Clients choose Interval because we provide: Fast access to verified specialists Consultancy-led delivery focus Multi-region and cross-industry capability Proven execution under pressure Previous Next

< Back Permanent Recruitment for a Global Consulting Firm Interval has been the trusted partner at this client for several years, initially providing contingent labour to support short-term, high-demand projects. Over time, the client recognised the need for a partner who could also assist in permanent recruitment to help fill strategic, hard-to-source roles, particularly across their technology, infrastructure, and SAP teams within Consulting. Approach These roles were critical to the success of long-term engagements, and our client faced challenges in sourcing highly specialised candidates, particularly those who were not actively seeking new opportunities but had the expertise necessary for high-value consulting projects. With an established network of highly skilled professionals in the technology and consulting space, Interval employed a multi-channel recruitment strategy to source and engage passive candidates, maintaining our client’s confidentiality. We tapped into our extensive global network, utilised headhunting techniques, and leveraged niche job boards to find top talent in cloud technologies, SAP, and IT infrastructure. By engaging with professionals who were not actively applying for jobs, we were able to present the client with candidates that went beyond the conventional talent pool. This allowed us to place candidates in strategic positions within the client organisation, particularly for projects requiring rare skills in areas like SAP Digital Manufacturing, cloud infrastructure solutions, and complex IT/OT transformation. Our dedicated team built individual relationships with each client business lead and hiring manager to ensure our candidates met all requirements, including experience, technical skillset, cultural and professional fit, salary expectations and language skills. Outcomes Interval have successfully placed several permanent senior-level candidates at our client to date, contributing to the success of key projects and business growth across the practice. Our recruitment efforts have enabled the client to fill roles that were difficult to source through traditional recruitment channels. The long-term collaboration has led to a deeper understanding of the client's strategic needs, ensuring that we continue to support them with tailored recruitment solutions, both in permanent and contingent labour contexts. As a result, the client has strengthened its delivery capabilities and increased its ability to stay ahead of market demands. This partnership is expected to continue for the foreseeable future, with Interval now an integral part of the client's talent acquisition strategy. Previous Next

< Back Brand repositioning and go-to-market for a retailer's international expansion Repositioning a brand and supporting go-to-market execution to enable successful international growth. Challenge A retailer focused on digital and consumer technology products was preparing to enter multiple new European markets.

The business needed to move quickly without building a large internal marketing team. Solution Interval delivered brand strategy, positioning and go-to-market support , combining strategic consulting with hands-on execution. This included brand messaging refinement, visual identity updates, website localisation support and campaign planning for new markets. Marketing specialists were deployed on a project basis to deliver assets and coordinate launches across regions.

< Back Digital Java Transformation for an Automotive Company Interval supported a global automotive brand in enhancing its vehicle planning and production platform - modernising core Java components and preparing the system for cloud migration. The result: faster performance, improved maintainability, and a foundation for long-term scalability. Situation A multinational manufacturer of luxury vehicles and motorcycles operates a digital platform that manages planning, ordering, production and distribution of vehicles. This platform integrates multiple departments - Sales, Purchasing, Production, Financing and Distribution - across the organisation to ensure that orders are fulfilled efficiently, while accounting for capacity and operational constraints at every stage of the manufacturing process. The platform, originally developed in 2015 as a Java Enterprise Edition monolith, had served the business well. However, with the continued evolution of the automotive industry, the company recognised the need to both enhance functionality and ensure the system remained well maintained. The client launched an initiative to deliver new, business-focused features and provide ongoing support for the monolith application in the short term. The long term goal was to refactor the platform into microservices and migrate to the cloud for greater flexibility and scalability. Approach Interval deployed a dedicated Java Developer to support this transformation. Responsibilities included: Designing and implementing user stories in both frontend and backend components Reducing web page load times to under one second by optimising JPA/SQL queries and improving REST service response times Performing detailed code analysis to identify logical components within the monolith and refactor these into standalone microservices Investigating and resolving production incidents and end-user issues Collaborating closely with the Product Owner, Business Analyst and other stakeholders to shape new features Documenting all work - feature preparation, technical design and implementation - on Jira and Confluence The developer’s efforts laid the groundwork for strategic system modernisation while meeting immediate business needs. Outcomes The first project phase was delivered within six months, ahead of schedule and within budget. A subsequent phase commenced shortly thereafter. All business goals of the initial engagement were met, enabling the organisation to continue offering high-performing digital services to customers. Technologies used included: Java 11, Java EE 8, GlassFish, Kafka, Angular, Maven, Docker, AWS, Bitbucket, Sonar, and IntelliJ IDEA. The proposed transformation - from monolith to microservices - was approved by leadership and is now in progress. The overall programme is expected to span several years, delivering substantial improvements in efficiency, process agility, and system security. Previous Next

< Back Payments Centre of Excellence for the Aviation Industry Interval supported a major international airline group in building a unified Payments Centre of Excellence (CoE) across its core airlines, as the existing payments integration had introduced complexity. Interval was commissioned to lead a preliminary study and prepare for the implementation of a Payments CoE to align with the client’s group-wide payments strategy. Situation Recognising the need for a single, scalable solution, the client sought to fully integrate its payment systems - particularly across its central ("hub") airlines - and lay the foundation for future growth. Interval was commissioned to lead a preliminary study and prepare for the implementation of a Payments CoE to align with the client’s group-wide payments strategy. Approach Interval led the preparatory phase of the Payments CoE initiative, working closely with internal teams to: Set up the project structure, governance, and delivery approach Conduct an in-depth analysis of the payments landscape across the group Define the organisational and operational structure of the CoE Develop core CoE collateral, including templates for capability management and market analysis Run workshops with stakeholders across all business units and subject matter experts We also provided specialist input on payments process optimisation and Centre of Excellence design, ensuring the client had a scalable and future-proof blueprint to move forward. Interval quickly embedded within the client’s programme team, acting as a trusted partner in shaping and structuring the Payments CoE. Our team ensured alignment across governance, technology, and commercial units while facilitating cross-functional collaboration throughout the project preparation. By working closely with internal and external stakeholders, we ensured a smooth transition from the planning phase to implementation readiness, supporting a consistent and integrated approach across the client’s group structure. Outcomes Interval delivered a robust foundation for the client's Payments CoE, including: A complete project framework, governance model, and delivery plan Detailed analysis of the current payments ecosystem, including IT systems, providers, payment methods, and customer touchpoints Defined organisational roles, steering committees, and collaboration models Operational processes and tools to support payment capability management across the group Our work enabled the client to move forward with the implementation of a unified Payments Centre of Excellence, positioning them to deliver a seamless, efficient payments experience to millions of customers globally each year.

< Back Business continuity through urgent administrative cover in the finance industry Rapid deployment of experienced administrative professionals to maintain service levels during unexpected operational disruption. Challenge A global financial services organisation experienced multiple unplanned absences across its office management, reception and customer-facing administration functions. With client meetings, regulatory documentation and daily operations dependent on these roles, any gap posed immediate reputational and operational risk. The client required experienced professionals who could step in immediately with minimal onboarding and maintain high service standards. Solution Interval provided four pre-vetted administrative professionals within 48 hours , covering reception, office coordination, document handling and customer contact points. Each professional had prior experience in regulated and client-facing environments and was briefed to align with internal processes and tone. Interval facilitated rapid security clearance for each professional to ensure 100% compliance from day one. Support was structured to ensure overlap and handover where possible, reducing risk further. Outcome Zero disruption to client-facing operations All regulatory documentation and internal processes maintained on schedule Customer response times maintained within SLA targets Internal teams avoided overtime and operational strain The client later engaged Interval to create a contingency support pool for future operational resilience.

< Back Executive and operational support for a SaaS scale-up Providing trusted executive and administrative support to help a fast-growing SaaS business scale internationally without losing operational control. Challenge A VC-backed SaaS scale-up was expanding rapidly across Europe, growing from 120 to 260 employees in 18 months . Senior leadership was spending a disproportionate amount of time on administration, diary management and coordination. Board packs, leadership meetings and operational documentation varied by region, increasing risk and slowing decision-making. The business needed experienced executive and administrative support that could operate confidently at leadership level, handle confidential information and scale as the organisation grew. Solution Interval deployed a Senior Executive Assistant and two operational administrative professionals with experience supporting C-suite leaders in high-growth environments. Support included complex diary and travel management across multiple time zones, preparation of board and leadership materials, documentation standardisation and coordination between regional teams. As headcount increased, additional support was added within two weeks , ensuring continuity without disruption. Outcome Leadership time spent on administration reduced by 35–40% Board and leadership materials standardised across regions Improved decision turnaround times and meeting effectiveness Administrative support scaled seamlessly alongside business growth The client retained Interval support for over 24 months , citing reliability, discretion and ability to operate at senior level as key differentiators.

< Back Marketing technology capability build for a global marketing services company in APAC As a global marketing services company moved to close the gap between traditional agency delivery and technology-driven marketing, Interval built a specialist talent pipeline across four APAC markets - placing 18 digital and MarTech professionals with a two-year retention rate of 91%. The challenge As a global marketing services company accelerated its push to build internal digital capability, the business faced a significant talent gap between its traditional agency structure and the specialised skills needed to compete in an increasingly technology-driven environment. The requirement spanned performance marketing, MarTech, content strategy and data and analytics across Singapore, Australia, Japan and Southeast Asia, at a moment when competition for this candidate profile across the region was at its most intense. The difficulty was not simply one of availability. Digital and marketing technology talent with genuine agency or marketing services experience, as opposed to pure technology backgrounds, was particularly scarce. The business needed candidates who understood both the craft of marketing and the mechanics of the technology enabling it, a combination that narrowed the addressable talent pool significantly in every market. The approach Interval worked closely with both HR and operational leadership to define precise competency profiles for each market, recognising that the requirements differed meaningfully across the region. MarTech maturity in Singapore and Australia was considerably ahead of Southeast Asia, and Japan presented distinct cultural and linguistic considerations that required a fundamentally different sourcing approach. Critically, Interval approached the brief not as a series of isolated hires but as a capability-building exercise. This meant mapping the talent landscape across agency networks, marketing technology platforms and brand-side in-house functions simultaneously, to identify candidates who could bring genuine digital and technology maturity into an organisation undergoing significant structural change. Throughout the engagement, Interval provided regular market intelligence on candidate availability, competitor hiring activity and compensation benchmarking across each market, enabling the business to remain competitive in its offers and make decisions quickly. The results Interval placed 18 digital and marketing technology specialists across four markets. The average time-to-offer was 34 days and the two-year retention rate across all placements was 91%. The hires spanned performance marketing, MarTech, content strategy and data and analytics, collectively accelerating the client's capability-building agenda at a critical moment in its transformation.

< Back Senior talent delivery across a major agency network restructure in APAC A global agency network consolidating its regional leadership structure needed to fill 22 senior roles across six APAC markets simultaneously. With the regional talent market at its most competitive, Interval delivered a full leadership pipeline within 120 days. The challenge Following a global restructure that consolidated creative, media and technology capabilities under unified regional leadership, a major agency network needed to rapidly build out its APAC leadership layer across six markets. The requirement spanned Chief Operating Officers, heads of delivery, creative technology leads and senior programme managers, all in roles demanding candidates who could operate across disciplines, geographies and client types simultaneously. The challenge was compounded by the state of the agency talent market across the region. Senior candidates with genuine cross-discipline fluency, equally capable in creative, media and technology environments, are scarce at the best of times. In a period of widespread industry restructuring, many of the strongest profiles were either mid-transition themselves or being pursued by multiple competing networks simultaneously. The business needed a partner who could move quickly, map the market comprehensively and make a compelling case to passive candidates who were not actively looking. The approach Interval worked closely with the network's regional HR and operations leadership from a single coordinated brief, building a unified view of the talent landscape across all six markets simultaneously rather than approaching each in isolation. A consistent competency framework was agreed upfront to ensure quality and cultural fit could be assessed reliably across markets as different as Japan, Australia and Southeast Asia. For each role, Interval ran targeted direct search campaigns alongside broader market mapping, giving the client full visibility of the available talent pool before any decisions were made. Where strong candidates existed but were not actively looking, Interval invested time in building relationships and presenting the opportunity in a way that reflected the network's strategic ambition rather than simply the job specification. Throughout the engagement, Interval provided structured updates on pipeline status, market intelligence and candidate feedback, as well as a live interactive dashboard, enabling the regional leadership team to make informed decisions quickly without being drawn into the operational detail of the search process itself. The results Interval filled 22 senior roles across six APAC markets within a 120-day window. The two-year retention rate across all placements was 89%, reflecting the rigour of the competency framework and the quality of the candidate and client matching process. The network subsequently engaged Interval on a second mandate as the restructuring programme extended into additional markets. Previous Next
