The Challenge

BCG's Dubai office, serving clients across the Middle East, wanted to bring in a dedicated specialist in business process automation, someone fluent in Microsoft Power Automate who could sit down with different departments and stakeholders and help them move faster. That is a specific combination of technical skill and consulting-environment fluency, and finding it quickly usually takes longer than teams would like.

The Solution

RemoteOne ran a focused search against that exact brief and presented a shortlist of vetted candidates. The specialist who was ultimately hired went through two rounds of interviews with BCG before being confirmed, and was fully up and running within a month of the first conversation.

A Specific Skill Set, Not a Generic Hire

Business process automation roles are hard to hire for well. The best candidates need real, hands-on experience with tools like Power Automate, but they also need to be comfortable walking into a consulting environment and working directly with stakeholders who don't necessarily speak the same technical language. Finding both in one person, quickly, is where most searches stall.

How the Search Ran

RemoteOne sourced and screened candidates against BCG's brief and presented a shortlist for review. The specialist BCG ultimately chose went through two rounds of interviews before being confirmed. From that first conversation with RemoteOne to being fully embedded and working across departments, the whole process took under a month.

Early Days, Real Momentum

This engagement is still in its first few weeks. The specialist is now working directly with different departments and stakeholders inside BCG's Dubai office to identify and streamline processes that had been done manually. It's too early to report hard outcomes, but the placement itself, from brief to fully embedded in under a month, is already a meaningful result for a role this specific.
