The Challenge

Playa Blanca Holiday Villas, a thriving villa holiday rental business based in Playa Blanca, Lanzarote, operates with an entirely remote backed office team. They faced the challenge of recruiting a Spanish-speaking Ecommerce Executive to support their operations in Spain. This role required specific linguistic abilities and technical expertise that needed to align with the company's fully remote work structure.

The Solution

After an initial consultation, Hunter Marshall developed a comprehensive job description tailored to capture the specific requirements of the role. Our team then:

• Launched a targeted recruitment campaign to attract qualified outsourced workers with both Spanish language proficiency and relevant ecommerce expertise
• Conducted thorough screening and prepared a shortlist of promising candidates
• Held preliminary interviews to assess candidates' suitability
• Presented the three most outstanding candidates to Playa Blanca Holiday Villas for final interviews

Kami emerged as the clear frontrunner, impressing the client with her previous experience working at the Spanish embassy in New Delhi and her strong academic background in marketing. Hunter Marshall employed Kami on an excellent local salary package that provided her with a significantly better salary than her peers.

The Results

Beyond securing an exceptional candidate who perfectly matched the client's requirements, the partnership delivered significant advantages:

• Seamless integration of Kami into the Ireland-based outsourced staffing team
• Substantial cost savings with total annual employment costs of just €14,000—less than 50% of the €38,000 payroll costs alone (excluding office expenses) that would have been incurred for an equivalent Ireland-based hire
• Access to specialised talent with both Spanish language skills and marketing expertise
• Improved operational capability for the client's Spanish market

This successful partnership demonstrates how Hunter Marshall enables UK and European businesses to access highly qualified remote outsourced workers while achieving significant cost efficiencies, without compromising on quality or communication capabilities.
