What is a recruitment Managed Service Provider?
Have you ever wondered how larger companies manage to hire so many temporary workers or how they keep track of all their freelancers, consultants and contractors?
The answer is that many businesses are increasingly using a recruitment Managed Service Provider (MSP) to manage their temporary workforce as efficiently and effectively as possible.
What is a Managed Service Provider (MSP)?
Imagine throwing a big party and hiring a bunch of people to help, such as cooks, entertainers and cleaners. You could spend all your time finding these people yourself or hire a party planner to do it for you. In recruitment, an MSP is just like a party planner.
An MSP is a company that helps other companies hire and manage their temporary workers. They take care of everything from finding the right people to checking their skills, negotiating their pay, onboarding them, and making sure they do a good job. This allows the business to focus on other crucial aspects and leave the hiring to an expert, trusted partner.
Why use a Managed Service Provider (MSP)?
Think of MSPs as a one-stop shop for all your temporary staffing needs. Companies typically use them for several main reasons:
Benefits
Save time
Reduce costs
Improved agility
Better visibility
Scalability
Reduced burden
A strategic MSP partner
In the recruitment sector, the term MSP is used interchangeably to refer to both a Managed Service Programme and a Managed Service Provider. However, a Managed Service Programme (a contingent workforce solution) is delivered by a Managed Service Provider (a contingent workforce solution specialist).
A Managed Service Provider is a strategic partner that offers a comprehensive contingent workforce solution, providing benefits such as streamlined recruitment processes, access to top talent (even for short-term assignments), optimised costs and efficient supplier management, allowing businesses to focus on other core tasks.
