THE COMPANY

Magen eco-Energy is a global manufacturer of solar pool heating systems, pool sanitizing and industrial heat exchangers, based in Israel.

With over 40 years of experience, Magen eco-Energy has grown into a world leader, specializing in the R&D, production and marketing of solar pool heating systems, natural Salt generators for swimming pools, and industrial & agricultural heat exchangers. Operating in 6 continents, Magen have 5 subsidiary companies with multiple offices in Israel and the US.

Magen were looking to recruit a General Manager in the USA, working in solar powered heating solutions.

THE CHALLENGE

As an Israeli company
hiring into the US, they were
aware they needed to enhance
their market knowledge to attract the right candidate.

“We knew we needed to open our minds and be open to other industries – not just the ones similar to ours. We knew we needed a headhunter from the beginning.”

-Galia Kaplun Agami, VP HR

THE SOLUTION

Magen, referred by Stratasys, and impressed by past successes in global hires, engaged Solutions Driven for their GM role.

After an initial scoping call and search, it was clear the original talent pool for this role was small. Through thorough market research the search parameters were widened to include other industries and skillsets. Continual communication was vital in this hire due to the
complexity of the requirements and the size of the candidate pool. Five candidates were then taken to interview and one diverse candidate was hired.

“Magen would, for sure, use Solutions Driven for a role again – even if it was in a different location – Germany, Australia etc.
We’d have complete trust you could fill it.”
