CPG EXPERIENCE

Post-MBA Turhan got his start in CPG brand marketing through an internship with Nestle Purina. Over the years he would go on to work for several more globally-recognized CPG companies including Mattel & Kraft Heinz sharpening his marketing acumen across innovation & equity roles. It was at Molson Coors where Turhan decided it was time for a change and transitioned into an internal recruiting career. Fast-forward several years ahead to present day where Turhan is now a highly-seasoned CPG recruiter after successful placement of marketing & sales talent at both Molson Coors & Beyond Meat.

CONCEPTION OF TALENT REALM

Following a successful run at Beyond Meat where he really grew/challenged himself as a Senior Recruiter, Turhan wanted to double-down on that passion and bring both of his marketing/recruiting experiences full-circle by deciding to lend his unique perspective & expertise to CPG companies that want to level-up with best-in-class marketers & salespeople. Taking inspiration from the Nine realms in Viking mythology, Turhan decided to create his very own realm, Talent Realm, where he would assemble the best marketing/sales talent from his network to be hired by employers that enter the realm. 

PERSONAL BIO

Currently residing in Orange County, California, Turhan has had the pleasure of living in several different cities/states over the course of his life with the most recent ones being Nashville & Chicago. In his spare time, Turhan enjoys going to the beach, spending time with family/friends, dancing and traveling abroad (favorite countries include Germany, England, Japan, Chile & Colombia). Turhan holds a bachelors degree in Economics from UC Davis & an MBA in Marketing from Vanderbilt University.
