NEED

Urgent need for experts in Switzerland expansion

A global AgriFood leader urgently required technical experts for the large-scale expansion of a flagship production site in Switzerland. Facing a shortage of qualified local professionals, the client trusted IOTA Group to deliver a rapid, compliant, and efficient solution. In just a few weeks, IOTA sourced and mobilised 15 highly skilled specialists, enabling the project to move forward without delay while ensuring full compliance with Swiss labor laws.

Challenges

Client Challenges and Specific Requirements

The client was facing a tight project launch deadline for the expansion of one of its flagship industrial production sites in Switzerland (lien vers la page du pays), a strategic operation with global implications. Although the client had a local legal entity and internal teams in place, they were already fully committed to other priorities and unable to support the additional demands of this complex and fast-moving project.


Despite extensive recruitment efforts, the client was unable to identify the highly specialised experts required, particularly in civil and mechanical engineering. The urgency of the timeline, combined with the precision and compliance standards expected in Switzerland, left no room for approximation. The limited availability of qualified talent in the local market further intensified the challenge, making it virtually impossible to respond quickly through traditional channels.


Any delay would have had major consequences not only for the construction timeline but also for global production flows and commercial commitments. The client needed more than just a staffing provider; they needed a trusted operational partner.


They turned to IOTA for its ability to act fast, source qualified international experts, ensure full compliance with Swiss labour regulations, and take full ownership of the end-to-end mobilisation process from sourcing to onboarding and on-site support.
