The Challenge

Combe Incorporated, long anchored in retail, wanted to pivot into direct-to-consumer eCommerce. Its White Plains location made attracting top talent harder, and its lean team needed people who could combine strategic insight with hands-on execution.

Our Approach

Chameleon Recruiting ran a focused search. We started with an eCommerce Technical Project Manager, researching the technical competencies the role required in depth, engaging more than 120 candidates and narrowing to four finalists. Combe's next need was a Senior Manager of Email/CRM, where we used our network to talk with over 60 candidates and shortlisted seven, each with distinct experience.

The Impact

The deliberate approach paid off: Combe assembled its D2C eCommerce team with people who brought both strategy and execution and fit the company's culture. Combe is now moving into direct-to-consumer with a team equipped to drive growth.
