Recruitment process outsourcing, commonly known as RPO, is when a business appoints an external recruitment partner to manage agreed parts of its hiring process. This can include sourcing, screening, interview coordination, candidate communication, reporting and offer support.

Our model is designed for Australian SMEs that need structured recruitment support without outsourcing their entire talent acquisition function.

Project RPO is a defined form of recruitment process outsourcing used for a specific hiring project, group of roles or period of business growth.

Instead of entering a long-term enterprise programme, you agree the roles, timeframe, responsibilities and hiring outcomes at the start of the project.

For businesses that need a recruiter working directly within their internal team, try our embedded recruitment services in Australia.

Traditional enterprise RPO can involve outsourcing a large part of a company’s permanent recruitment function under a complex, long-term programme.

Our project RPO model is simpler. It is built around a defined hiring requirement, can be launched quickly and allows the business to retain control of its internal recruitment function.

Embedded recruitment adds a dedicated recruiter to work as part of your internal team, usually across ongoing hiring requirements.

Project RPO is focused on delivering a defined hiring project or group of roles within an agreed timeframe. The service is structured around clear outcomes, responsibilities and reporting.

A traditional recruitment agency usually works on individual vacancies and charges a fee for each successful placement.

Recruitment process outsourcing supports a defined group of roles or hiring project under one delivery plan. This provides greater cost visibility, coordination, reporting and accountability across the recruitment process.

No. Our recruitment process outsourcing model allows Australian businesses to outsource only the areas where support is needed.

Project RPO can be useful when a business is:

• opening a new site
• entering a new market
• hiring after funding
• recruiting across several roles
• managing a time-sensitive growth period
• facing a temporary recruitment capacity gap

It provides dedicated recruitment support for the duration of the hiring requirement.

Yes. We can provide dedicated recruitment capacity for multiple vacancies, growth campaigns and time-sensitive hiring projects.

The scope is agreed in advance so both teams have clear responsibilities, priorities, targets and reporting.

Support can often begin within days, depending on the number and complexity of roles.

We first agree the project scope, responsibilities, systems, timeline and reporting requirements so delivery begins with clear expectations.
