Our Recruitment Expertise - Specialist Markets

Helping you to find a foothold in some of the toughest tech markets out there, our Specialist Markets solutions are the definition of expert-led.

RPO & Total Talent Acquisition

Our Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)/Total Talent Acquisition (TTA) models set you apart from the competition. Our models are flexible for your future but robust for your users. They are tailored to you but put you in proven trustworthy hands.  We’ll help you to unlock new talent pools, raise your brand awareness and become a magnet for passive talent. Putting candidate and stakeholder experience at the heart of our delivery, we’ll also shape and futureproof your strategy by harnessing innovation and best practice. We attract, select and retain the permanent talent to ensure you are the employer of choice. 

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) means completely or partially outsourcing your permanent recruitment services to an external recruitment service provider. This can span everything from workforce planning and talent mapping through to support with talent attraction and employer branding. Our RPO solutions include a dedicated, expert-led delivery team and specialist technology to optimise processes. Total Talent Acquisition is an extension of RPO and integrates both RPO and MSP into a single, outsourced solution. Covering the entire talent lifecycle for permanent and temporary hires, our TTA solutions offer a holistic, aerial view of the entire resourcing landscape.

If you are looking for a single source for your permanent recruitment and regularly need permanent hires, RPO is the right choice for you. If this is also true for your contingent recruitment – or you have a medium to large sized contingent population – consider TTA. RPO or TTA is best for businesses that are looking for a long-term solution that will improve talent attraction and retention while also enhancing customer and candidate experience.

Always fit-for purpose and agile, our solutions will bring transparency and embed efficiency into your workforce. We'll work with you, your team, and your suppliers to achieve the optimum process which aligns with your business strategy and puts you ahead of your competitors. We will future proof your recruitment strategy by introducing cost saving processes and maintaing a sharp eye over workforce and tech market changes.

In an MSP program or a CWS, temporary and contract recruitment is outsourced to a third-party solutions provider – that’s us. We take responsibility for the full contingent lifecycle on your behalf, from workforce planning and supplier management to contractor care and offboarding. In our experience, the most effective MSP solutions have an aligned account management team, an optimised vendor management system (VMS) and a keen focus on control and cost savings.

If you have a medium to large-sized contingent workforce, an MSP/CWS solution will work for you. Whether you’re looking for your first MSP to improve visibility, compliance or control, or you are an existing MSP advocate looking for a fresh strategy with a new partner, we can create a solution that fits you.

Statement of Work (SOW) / Managed Services Delivery

Powered by Lorien, Valinor is our Statement of Work solution, a technology, advisory and project delivery specialist. Bringing quality, efficiency, and transparency to every Statement of Work programme, we work closely with our clients to manage the end-to-end process of project delivery
with complete care and control.

Statement of Work (SOW) models are outcome-based contracts. We provide experts to deliver services against a defined set of outputs, milestones, or deliverables.

A Statement of Work offers an alternative to conventional recruitment models. Instead of supplying resources on an hourly basis, a SOW project provides fixed costs for achieving set milestones or deliverables. This service offers an alternative for businesses whose requirements mean they may not get the same value in terms of cost and efficiency from traditional talent models.

  • Standalone services
  • Reduced risk
  • Efficiency
  • Control

Contract & Permanent Recruitment

Our experience tells us that there’s a candidate for every role, no matter how specific the skillset or competitive the sector. From the stability and structure of longer-term permanent contracts to one-off contracts, we’re responsible for sourcing thousands of talented tech candidates and contractors
every year. Covering a broad range of technical disciplines at all career stages, we make meaningful candidate-client matches. We connect the talent that builds better businesses. 

We cover all tech requirements, including data and analytics, cloud, infrastructure and networks, testing and QA, business change and transformation, software development, cybersecurity, ERP and CRM, service delivery and operations, design and architecture, engineering and DevOps, UI, UX and front-end, RPA, digital marketing, and product. 

Staffing Solutions may be right for you if you only have role requirements occasionally or you have an urgent requirement that requires a tech specialist. It may also be right for you if your resourcing programme is still developing and an outsourced solution feels too mature at the moment.

  • Fair prices

A Services Procurement Programme can add value at multiple points within the SoW lifecycle, however SoW Management typically records, monitors, and manages SoW transactions and engagements, whilst overseeing deliverables to provide security and governance. 

If you have limited visibility of your Statement of Work engagements and overall spend it may be worth considering a discovery assessment. SoW Management Programme provides companies with the transparency needed to benchmark the competitiveness of supplier rates and ensures that contracts with suppliers are uniform.
