outstripped even our own high expectations.
She is all we believed her to be and a whole lot more

it is and where it is going thanks to Zenopa”.

organisation’s culture, in particularly the
Marketing team.

the departing Marketing Director, the Sales
Director and the HR Director.
• Shortlisted candidates were comprehensively
discussed and psychometrics offered and
analysed.
• The MD of Activa was the previous Marketing Director and it
was important find someone who would preserve and protect
the heritage and culture in the business; whilst also having the
vision, confidence and resolve to drive forward new initiatives.
• Sourcing candidates who were prepared to take a hands-on
approach and serious ownership of their role.
• Team fit was imperative as regards the board of directors as
was team fit with the marketing team itself.
