Our Client’s Story
THE SITUATION:
Taboola, having just entered the US market, needed to scale its sales and management teams quickly. They needed a management and executive recruiting partner to assist them with their hiring, and from whom they could learn about the market for talent, while scaling their U.S. team.
AC LION’S SUCCESS:
Within the first three months of the engagement, AC Lion placed Taboola’s first two publisher sellers. AC Lion acted as consultants to the CRO, advising on what the specific profiles should look like for these first few hires in their U.S. Market entry.
Subsequently AC Lion has worked closely with Taboola on several senior hires including the Head of Global Talent Acquisition and Director of HR Analytics.
Over time AC Lion has placed many of Taboola’s key managers and executives including:
- VP of Corporate Marketing
- Director’s of Account Management
- Field Marketing Manager
- Professional Services Engineer
- Media Account Managers
- Media Sellers
- Enterprise Publisher Sales
- Head of Publisher Account Management
- Enterprise Publisher Account Managers
- Mid-Market Publisher Sales
- Mid-Market Publisher Account Managers
Taboola and AC Lion have clearly shaped a unique and consultative partnership. AC Lion is being recognized by Taboola’s Head of HR as their #1 Global recruiting partner.
CLIENT TESTIMONIAL:
“Since Taboola’s very easy days in the US market, AC Lion, and in particular Michael Giunta, have been a great partner to me. Whether it was a well-defined search or a more exploratory one, they provided great candidates and real time feedback. Moreover, they helped us engage and secure the right people for the position, and to identify and walk away from those that weren’t a strong fit. Through the years they have been diligent, upbeat and accommodating, all very important elements to such a relationship.” — Neomi Farkas, VP of HR at Taboola
