The challenge

Setting up a solid team

After setting up their business in France, and successfully scaling through our multiple countries in Europe, they decided to expand their business to the Netherlands. Setting up a solid team was critical in launching and scaling October in the Netherlands. Their Ideal Candidate Profile, made this a challenging task: people who think and act as entrepreneurs, yet are top-notch in the financial sector.
