Rethinking permanent recruitment by helping a pharma company to access cost savings across seven countries.
From the very start, we established touchpoints and action plans to boost talent communication and transparency across the business. This enabled managers and stakeholders to have greater visibility into the recruitment process and to understand how and where we were filling roles successfully. This built confidence in the program and helped to drive engagement.
By building and implementing best practice across all seven locations, our team was able to drive a more efficient and joined-up approach to permanent recruitment. Our talent consultancy has helped to shape this approach through expert advice and guidance at every step. We also developed a well-managed talent pool to accelerate access to great candidates. These efficiencies quickly delivered cost savings – more than S$500,000 was saved in the first year of the program, with 78% of mid to senior-level positions filled by non-agency hires.
This multi-country RPO program stretches across a wide geographic area – Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and South Korea. Our global expertise has helped us to understand and support the nuances of each of these talent markets, while still developing joined-up processes that support transparency and efficiency. We are always working to improve and refine the program and look forward to continuing to support this life-changing organisation.
