Approach
The technology and transformation team at Robert Walters Manchester conducted a detailed market analysis and implemented headhunting, market mapping, and data-driven recruitment strategies. A dedicated project delivery team ensured effective communication and a consistent feedback loop. Candidate sourcing methods included headhunting, referrals, recommendations, and leveraging Robert Walters’ extensive network of technology professionals in the North
Solution
Speedy Hire required a diverse range of roles, including software development, design, product management, data analysis, IT support, and project management. Robert Walters identified and sourced candidates to meet these needs through detailed market analysis and by tapping into both passive and active candidate markets. Detailed MI reports were provided, and alignment with Speedy Hire's needs was maintained throughout the process.
Results
Hundreds of professionals were shortlisted, and approximately 30 candidates have been placed so far, with many more expected over the project's duration. The successful placements for the digital transformation project so far have meant Speedy Hire have entrusted Robert Walters with additional recruitment projects outside of the tech domain too.
