Our client

Havas Play, a leading agency, helps brands win by being culturally relevant wherever their audiences come together around a passion, interest or concern — in real life, in the media, on social networks, as well as in the metaverse.

A new VP for a new entity

Born from the merger of Havas Sports & Entertainment (Partnerships), Native (Special Operations) and Socialyse (Social), the new Havas Play entity was looking for a VP to continue developing its entire Special Operations activity, notably by strengthening ties with Havas Média, media sales houses and advertisers.

A headhunting mission to be carried out confidentially given the importance of the role.

The BOOST solution

As an executive search firm, BOOST adopted a highly precise and methodical targeting approach, since the number of people capable of taking on this role and bringing a new dimension to it was limited.

Addressing specific needs

By fully embracing the agency's message and vision in order to convey them as accurately as possible in discussions with candidates, our team was able to spark fascinating conversations with particularly qualified people.

One of the great strengths is the advice and promotion of the employer brand, the conviction shown to candidates, where you can feel real involvement from the team and a genuine understanding of our business.

Time for results!

A surgical mission in terms of profile targeting, and a fascinating one thanks to the quality of the three-way exchanges between the agency, the candidates, and our team.
