The Challenge

When The Gym Group (TGG) embarked on a critical digital re-platforming transformation, time was of the essence. They needed high-calibre talent quickly. The Gym Group’s in-house recruitment function faced a significant challenge: to hire urgently for a number of pivotal roles essential to the success of the programme. With an ambitious timeline and high expectations, they couldn’t afford delays or mismatches.

Hear what they had to say

"It's been an absolute pleasure working with Troi, while they have been embedded with my team. Their friendly and engaging personal style made integrating effortless… This project required them to bring their technical expertise and stakeholder management skills to deliver a number of critical hires within an extremely tight timescale and our expectations were exceeded in every respect. I'd have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Troi to anybody, and we look forward to working with them on similar projects in the future."
