Who is ASLAN?

Every hire matters.
The Challenge
When ASLAN’s in-house Bookkeeper resigned, the company needed immediate support to avoid placing more strain on their leadership team. The role reported directly to both the CFO and the President, making it essential to find someone who could manage the day-to-day financial responsibilities and integrate well within ASLAN’s collaborative culture.
Marc Lamson, President of ASLAN, was clear about the urgency. His goal was to have someone identified and started within weeks. He recognized that turnaround would be challenging, but leaving the seat open was not an option.
Like many growing businesses, ASLAN needed a recruiting partner that could move quickly, stay flexible, and act as an extension of their internal team rather than operate like a traditional recruiting firm. They needed someone who understood the urgency, communicated transparently, and could focus the search on quality candidates rather than volume.
The Solution
Hire Ventures was engaged as a fractional recruiting partner, embedded directly within ASLAN’s team. We work as an extension of the client, not as an outside vendor, with one goal: finding the right person for the role.
We began with a detailed kickoff meeting to fully understand the role, reporting structure, technical requirements, and culture fit. From there, we developed a tailored screening process, ensuring every candidate evaluation stayed aligned with what ASLAN was looking for.
The search was focused and deliberate. Through proactive outreach, structured screening, and ongoing collaboration with ASLAN’s leadership, we built a strong pipeline of qualified candidates, giving ASLAN’s leadership a real picture of each person, not just a resume. That consistent communication and transparency kept the process moving and gave the team the confidence to make decisions quickly.
The Results
Just 20 days after the kickoff meeting, an offer was extended and accepted on the same day.
ASLAN secured a qualified Bookkeeper without sacrificing quality, communication, or culture alignment. Operations stabilized quickly and the strain on leadership was gone.
Hire Ventures’ hands-on, consultative approach helped ASLAN find the right talent efficiently, with a process fully aligned to their business needs and culture.
“Working with Hire Ventures was exactly what we needed. They understood our culture, moved quickly, and made a process that could have been stressful feel easy. The right person was in the seat in just a few weeks.”
— Marc Lamson, President, ASLAN Training & Development
