The challenges Pluq encountered in international business scaling.
How headhunting, job marketing, and our job board powered Pluq's dream team.
Pluq, a company that fully invests in EV charging station installations at high-traffic locations, faced significant challenges in scaling internationally. Despite offering innovative energy management solutions for venues like supermarkets, shopping centers, and hotels, they struggled with a shortage of staff necessary to support their growth.
Additionally, Pluq lacked key industry connections, crucial for unlocking new business opportunities. To meet their expansion goals, they urgently needed to fill both Inside Sales Account Manager and Outside Sales Account Manager roles. These professionals were critical not only for growing their client base and securing more contracts but also for managing customer relationships and driving business development, both internally and in the field. Without them, expanding into new markets and maintaining long-term partnerships became increasingly difficult.

The results achieved highlight our progress and success, with more milestones expected and counting.
To help Pluq tackle the challenges of international expansion, we implemented a straightforward yet effective recruitment strategy. We began by headhunting top candidates specifically for roles in the hospitality and real estate sectors. At the same time, we launched targeted job marketing campaigns in key areas across the Netherlands and Belgium to reach the right talent.
We also made full use of our job board to attract a wide range of qualified candidates, ensuring Pluq had a strong pool to choose from. Additionally, our network in the renewable energy sector helped us connect with the right experts, enabling Pluq to quickly and effectively build a strong, cross-border team.
Thanks to our partnership, Pluq now has a solid team in place, capable of driving the company's international growth ambitions.
With the new hires onboard, Pluq is well-positioned to conquer the hospitality and real estate sectors on a global scale, significantly improving their ability to secure contracts and expand their market presence.
Over the past few years we've built 300+ partnerships, created a talentpool
with over 50.000+ candidates, and been able to decrease our time-to-hire of 4-7 weeks.
