HR restructuring and rapid talent acquisition

After previously placing their HR Manager, our long-standing client in professional services exclusively engaged us to fill a strategic HR Business Partner role focused on business partnering, employee relations, and performance cycles. Leveraging our extensive database of pre-vetted talent and a proactive approach to passive candidate sourcing, we swiftly identified and shortlisted strong candidates with diverse backgrounds. We coordinated back-to-back interviews, enabling us to fill the HRBP role within two weeks. The successful placement of the HRBP strengthened the client’s business partnering capabilities, alleviated stress for the senior HR manager, and improved employee engagement through more strategic HR support.

Rapid HR support for critical vaccine rollout

A company in the community healthcare sector sought our help to find two HR Coordinators and two Talent Specialists on a contract basis – for a period ranging from 2.5 months to 12 months. These contractors would help the company source healthcare professionals for the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine. We were able to overcome the shortage of quality HR candidates thanks to our vast database of candidates and dynamic recruitment channels. Suitable candidates were placed within two to three days of being presented for interview. With new HR talent on board, the company was able to source the healthcare professionals required to deliver a successful vaccine rollout within the community healthcare space.

Strategic workforce planning hire for education provider

A leading education provider aimed to strengthen its organisational development function by hiring an experienced Organisational Development Specialist. This new 7-month contract role focused on assessing capability across the business—mapping roles, responsibilities, and job descriptions, while identifying skill gaps and development plans for the next 6, 12, and 24 months. The ideal candidate combined technical skills (HR metrics, data storytelling, workforce strategy) with strong interpersonal qualities like energy, pace, and proactivity. Within two hours of the client reaching out, we conducted a detailed job brief to clarify success criteria, business context, and desired candidate competencies. Drawing from our pre-vetted talent pool and leveraging a proactive multi-channel sourcing strategy, we delivered a highly targeted shortlist of four qualified candidates within 24 hours. Two candidates progressed to interviews with the Head of Talent. One was offered the role on the same day and commenced work within the week. The successful candidate quickly embedded themselves in the business, building strong relationships across departments and delivering early wins. They brought both strategic insight and a hands-on approach, supporting the organisation in clarifying roles, responsibilities, and workforce priorities.
