PROJECT

Testing, Inspection and Certification

Providing a broad portfolio of services throughout the UK

Our Client

A leader in Testing, Inspection and Certification. They provide a broad portfolio of services throughout the UK through their skilled employees who deliver completely impartial advice and solutions. Historically they have worked with agencies and internal HR to deliver their high volume of permanent vacancies across their locations in England, Scotland and Wales.

The Challenge

Although they have an internal recruitment function, they lack sufficient resources to meet the volume of hiring required throughout the UK. They have a preferred supplier list to support recruitment. This worked well when it was first set up, but in the last year, they have not received the level of service, quality or volume they require to meet their Client demands.

Solution

Applica began working with them on an ad hoc basis, to work on the hard-to-fill roles that both the internal team and the preferred agency had struggled to place. We engaged our discipline-specific recruiters and regional networks to identify suitable candidates and worked on the employer value proposition to promote the benefits of them as an employer.

Results

Our attraction & engagement strategy enabled us to identify and engage targeted passive candidates, with the required skills and experience. We ensured that both the candidate journey and the outward candidate engagement with our Client supported and enhanced their company brand reputation.

Having successfully delivered against all the roles we received, we have now been awarded the contract as their primary vendour and work as a trusted partner for all their permanent recruitment.
