Solving your immediate hiring needs
New Project?
A significant new project win can leave you short of resources or manpower and demanding more of the existing team. Using agencies to find staff not only eats into management time it will also eat into a significant slice of your profits. You might be tempted to attempt to recruit directly and take on the heavy lifting however this is unlikely to deliver the quality needed in the time scales required, after all that is why agencies exist.
Engaging a highly skilled experienced embedded TA with access to all the tools that agencies use every day allows you to use less of your budget on agency spend and giving you freedom to set salaries at a level that will attract the best on the market – it’s a win win. Higher quality resource, delivered quicker and with better profitability.
Extra Hiring Support
The benefits of an embedded recruiter are extensive; the use of agency hiring methods, shorter resourcing and lower costs are the standout reasons for engaging one of our specialists but our clients also benefit from a range of less obvious advantages such as how your specific TA can tap into a whole network of other TA’s and agency recruiters to identify your next hire, advising on salary benchmarking and focusing on specific hiring targets such as gender diverse hiring with an auditable report on all aspects of the process.
Frequently asked questions
