cranberry panda teams up with Tomassa

Tomassa Case Study:

Us Pandas aren’t “stuffy”, whether we’re working with a big brand or a startup we’re more than capable of lending a helping hand, and we promise to work our magic for you! Case in point, our loving relationship with the new online luxury jewellery brand beginning with ‘T’ … you got it, Tomassa! We dare you not to fall in love with the Summer Dusk ring, c’est imposible!

Launched in May 2012, Tomassa showcases a selection of fine jewellery, from smaller easy-to-wear designs, to expensive, one off pieces. With striking photography and thought provoking editorial imagery, Tomassa re-thinks the presentation of fine jewellery in the digital space. In their own words, “What makes Tomassa stand out is an online experience that is lavish, exuberant and individual where the screen is the only window.” 

Helping Tomassa bring ecommerce in-house

When we were introduced to Vishal (founder) and Huw (COO) back in 2011, they were working on their brand new ecommerce site and were keen to launch their beautiful jewellery to all the luxurious ladies out there. However, they needed an in-house team to do this. Enter cranberry panda.

We worked closely with the Tomassa management team to bring ecommerce in-house. Through time spent understanding the company and its goals, we were able to determine their needs and subsequently develop their team structure. This would enable Tomassa to thrive and grow at an impressive rate, offering direction refining job specs to ensure clearly defined roles.  Starting from scratch isn’t easy and sometimes it’s nice to know you have people supporting you and offering frank and honest advice. Think not of your conscience or the devil’s advocate, but of a little panda on your shoulder, providing guidance and expertise in the field we know best - ecommerce.

What did our client, Tomassa, say about working with us?

“cranberry panda has played a huge part in helping us bring ecommerce in-house. They've built an ecommerce team for our early stage business and have placed three candidates with us. Every CV they sent through was relevant, they really understood our requirements and the kind of people we needed to build the right team. They were patient, thorough and enthusiastic during the several months of searches and interviews. I would definitely recommend cranberry panda for their attitude and ecommerce industry knowledge.” - Huw, COO, Tomassa.

...And what about Jared, Tomassa's new ecommerce manager?

“It was a great experience working with cranberry panda. It made a huge difference working with an ecommerce specialist recruiter. From the initial phone call to the news that I had got the job, the team at cranberry panda were a great communicator, friendly & professional.” - Jared, Ecommerce Manager, Tomassa.

The team is now flourishing, and their impressive growth rate is testament to this and with their recent location around the corner from us, we were delighted to pop in for a cuppa to see how things are.  As we see it, we’ve made a lasting sparkle (ahem) with Tomassa – long may it continue!
