Authic Labs’ challenges: capacity, suitable candidates, and language requirements

Authic Labs is a leading technology company focused on innovative solutions within the blockchain and digital assets markets. Despite their technological expertise and strong reputation, they faced a significant challenge: they needed to quickly find an experienced Head of Sales to support their growth and further develop their sales strategy.

During this search, they encountered three major obstacles. First, Authic Labs had limited internal capacity to efficiently manage the recruitment process, leading to a slow flow of suitable candidates. Second, it was difficult to find candidates with the right sales experience and skills; many profiles did not meet the specific requirements for the role. Lastly, the position required strong communication skills and thorough knowledge of the local market, meaning they were specifically looking for a native Dutch professional, which made the search even more challenging.
