Royal Mail were looking to hire a team of data analysts to assist them with an internal reward and HR project and, as such, engaged us as their recruitment partner and contractor agency of choice.

In total they needed 6 individuals with a variety of skill sets (a mix of technical project management and client facing) for an undefined period of time.

What did we do?

• Creation of the recruitment and retention strategy 
• Identification of the top contractors in their space
• Recruiting of these individuals
• Onboarding the individuals 
• Vetting them to ensure they were referenced and compliant 
• Assisting with contractors' ongoing HR and Management by delivering a comprehensive in-assignment care schedule

As a result of us leading their contractor resourcing and contractor management, the project has been an overwhelming success. Individuals stayed in post until the the point they were no longer required (ensuring continuity across the project). Despite escalating contractor costs in the wider market, our in-assignment care protected the client from these. Individuals were happy to stay in post rather than try and seek out a higher day rate else where.

We're proud to say we reduced time to hire ratios, delivered the project under the recruitment budget and hopefully played a small part in making this project a success.

What was the feedback on contractor management service?

We caught up with contractor Mark McAnulty, to get his thoughts on the service he received from Zatori.

"I only have positive things to say about Zatori as I continue to enjoy a strong relationship with them post assignment.

They have been great from the outset, there are no stunts and they invest in you as a Contractor. The team are always quick to respond to enquiries pre, during and post assignment. I would not hesitate to recommend Zatori and look forward to working with them again in the future."

We look forward to working with them again on their next assignments.
