Talent Attraction and Engagement Strategies Informed By HR Expertise
Unlike traditional RPO-only providers, our delivery models are shaped and informed by our broader HR expertise, delivery capabilities and rich market insights, meaning we deliver so much more than just a transactional recruitment service. Your business will benefit from access to subject matter experts and toolkits for key topics such as diversity and inclusion, multi-generational and neurodiverse workforce engagement, skills-based hiring, employee value propositions and employer brands, internal mobility and re-skilling.
Our delivery teams truly become part of your business, invest in your brand and are there to support you to achieve your strategic business goals by providing access to the right talent at the right time.
Technology Enabled Humanity
As we are technology agnostic as a business, we can adopt your existing recruitment Applicant Tracking System, supporting you to make improvements to its functionality if required.
If you have yet to invest in your own recruitment technology, we can deploy our own comprehensive recruitment technology ecosystem which brings together industry leading platforms to elevate and transform recruitment processes. Curated as a result of over twenty years’ investment and experience of delivering leading Recruitment and HR services, it enables maximum functionality, drives efficiencies and produces meaningful MI and data; providing visibility of performance. Importantly, it also delivers the insights needed to inform both tactical and strategic workforce decisions.
It is fully configurable. Our expert advisors work with internal teams to create customised/personalised technology ecosystems to be deployed in their businesses. It can either be embedded as a complete suite of tools, or individual elements/tools can be implemented around existing infrastructure, enhancing what’s already in place.
Whilst we are a big believer in harnessing the power of technology, machine learning, and AI to drive efficiencies in processes, our RPO service will always be high touch, experience led and focussed on delivering personalised and authentic experiences for candidates and Hiring Managers. We’d describe our approach as ‘technology-enabled humanity’ – the human interventions delivered by our teams remain as important as ever, as they are the interface between your employer brand, reputation and your future talent.

What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)?
When a business engages an external provider to manage recruitment on their behalf for either the entire business, or specific departments, it’s called Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO). A Recruitment Process Outsource solution includes management of the entire end-to-end recruitment process for some or all types of hires – this can include permanent, fixed-term, contractors and temporary workers. It includes management of hires from all sources such as direct search assignments undertaken by the external provider themselves, referrals from existing employees, internal mobility and targeted outreach programmes, and utilisation of other selected, second-tier recruitment agencies.
As well as delivering the day to day recruitment process, an effective Recruitment Process Outsource solution should include support for workforce planning, working with internal teams to shape their hiring plans; delivery of multi-channel, inclusive sourcing and attraction strategies adapted for each type of hire; plus robust screening, selection, offer and onboarding processes to ensure that the right talent for the business is identified, engaged and secured.
How Could Outsourcing Recruitment benefit your business?
Businesses chose to outsource recruitment for many reasons. You might want to improve your recruitment processes and increase your access to more diverse talent, to speed up the time it takes to hire that talent, to reduce recruitment spending, or to improve the hiring experience for candidates and Managers. Utilising RPO can help you achieve all of the above, and more.
After implementation, businesses with continuing (steady or scaling) recruitment requirements benefit from significant savings, ongoing improvement and refinement of processes, and an enhanced employer brand – all of which enable them to access the talent they need, when they need it, to achieve wider, strategic business goals.
If you need to recruit at scale but your existing talent teams do not have the capacity required to do so, it may suit you to consider outsourcing recruitment on a shorter-term project basis. Recruitment projects run for a defined period of time and allow internal teams to focus on business-as-usual hiring, with the peak in hiring demand being met simultaneously.
