BACKGROUND
Deel helps businesses hire anyone, anywhere. It's global payroll for employees and contractors from around the world.
THE PROBLEM
Deel had experienced unprecedented growth, achieving a $5.5B valuation in under two years from its founding. They needed to bring in executive talent fungible enough to succeed in a present day ~300 person company that would quickly scale to a complex and matrixed 3k+ organization in the near future.
PLENTY’S SOLUTION
Plenty knew this role needed a candidate who not only participated in hyper-scale, but built processes to enable it and had done communications at a world-class level. Our researchers assembled an exhaustive list, and after narrowing down to a shortlist of top communications executives, Elizabeth's experience and style stood out and she was hired within 5 weeks.
