Grupa Żywiec is one of the leading beer producers in Poland. Żywiec, the flagship brand of the company, is one of the most popular Polish beers, also sold abroad for over a hundred years.
The company also owns brands such as: Heineken, Desperados, Warka, Tatra and Namysłów.
It is worth noting that Grupa Żywiec is part of the international Heineken Group.
The main goal of our cooperation was to find 4 people for the growing team dealing with building and implementing Industry 4.0 solutions in European breweries, including data collection and analysis. This team will work as part of a global program implemented by Heineken called Connected Brewery. The Connected Brewery program is largely based on the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) whose purpose is to collect real-time data from production machines and then use them to continuously improve processes.
Grupa Żywiec was looking for specialists who would complement each other with competences - from collecting user requirements, through connecting data, cleaning and analyzing it, to creating reports and recommendations for business.

We faced two challenges:

During the cooperation, there was a need to create an additional, fifth recruitment - for the role of IoT Service Engineer. The role was extremely difficult due to the combination of tasks related to infrastructure/networks and the cloud with implementation (trips to various breweries). After doing initial research on LinkedIn, we modified the name to IoT Engineer to be consistent with the market.
During the talks, it also turned out that the newly formed HR team of Grupa Żywiec is very diverse in terms of areas of expertise, and its challenge is the decreasing flow of active candidates and the need to reach passive candidates.
Therefore, the client decided to additionally take advantage of our training offer - Sourcing Training. Its aim was to harmonize the level of knowledge of the tools and to deepen the knowledge of more advanced methods of searching for candidates.
