Key Resultยฃ6.8M โ€” engineering contractor pipeline identified

the staffing group's revenue was significantly concentrated in a small number of large accounts. No systematic outbound reached procurement managers at new target companies. Business development depended almost entirely on existing account expansion.

The sectors the staffing group serves โ€” aerospace, nuclear, defence, and infrastructure โ€” each have unique procurement structures, security requirements, and qualification standards. Generic outreach failed to demonstrate the sector-specific credibility needed to open conversations.

Without new logo acquisition, the staffing group's growth was capped by the size and spend of its existing client base โ€” a structural risk that required a dedicated new business outbound function.

The Strategy

3 pillars. One integrated system.

Each strategic pillar was designed to feed the next โ€” creating compounding returns across every channel activated.

01

Sector-Specific Prospecting

Each of the five target sectors received distinct outreach messaging: aerospace security clearance holders and SC+ candidates, nuclear SQEP qualification traceability, defence roster management, infrastructure scalability during major project phases.

Lessons Learned

What this engagement taught us.

These principles carry forward into every engagement that follows โ€” applicable well beyond Engineering & Technical Staffing Group's specific context.

Industry

Engineering & Technical Staffing

Market

United Kingdom

Duration

Ongoing engagement

01

Engineering procurement requires sector-specific vocabulary to be credible.

A message to an aerospace procurement manager that doesn't reference security clearance levels, SC+ requirements, or experience with Tier 1 primes is immediately identified as generic and ignored. Vocabulary signals credibility before any conversation begins.

02

New logo acquisition in staffing requires persistence across 22-day cadences.

Engineering procurement managers are not responsive to single-touch outreach. A structured 22-day, multi-channel cadence โ€” combining LinkedIn, email, and follow-up โ€” generates the contact frequency needed to break through in a high-competition market.

03

SDR qualification before handoff protects account director time and improves close rates.

Account directors who attend unqualified meetings waste selling time and lose confidence in the pipeline. Full SDR qualification โ€” hiring need, volume, PSL status, framework participation โ€” ensures every meeting is worth attending.
