Temporary Recruitment

Our contingent workforce service is a business support framework that can deliver value in any sector. Whether you need staff for a few weeks or a few months, whether you need one person or a whole team, our talent pool comes with a broad spectrum of skills and capabilities.

Contingent workforces bring agility and efficiency

Temporary recruitment is the easy and flexible way to address unexpected or ad hoc staffing needs. The professionals in our operational pool have been pre-screened, checked, and tested for both hard skills and soft skills. They demonstrate essential interpersonal skills such as communications, teamwork, and problem-solving and have standard technology skills such as using Microsoft 365 or other office tools.

Some of the benefits of temporary recruitment include:

1. Rapid, reliable staffing: Get the right talent when you need it most, even at short notice. We never stop adding to our candidate pool, so we are likely to already have a relationship with someone who meets your requirement.
2. Quality staffing: Our candidates bring the right skills and a compatible work ethic, fostering a harmonious and productive work environment. Contingent workers are typically fast-thinking, flexible, and adaptable.
3. Continuity for your business: Contingency staffing is a great way to cover leave or offer support during projects that don’t have the budget for permanent hires, allowing you to take the pressure off your existing teams.
4. Minimum risk for maximum output: We manage the onboarding, back office, and payroll for your interim workers, who remain an employee of Savvi Recruitment. Our fee covers selection, administration, onboarding, salary, payroll taxes, holiday pay, and other costs.
5. Expertise across industry: Our pool can meet a broad range of temporary staffing needs with a wide range of transferable skills. We have relief workers with experience in roles as diverse as facilities management, supply chain, logistics, sales and marketing, customer service, finance, operations, office support, and administration.

Temporary workers are highly skilled and highly motivated professionals. Read our recent blog to learn more about how relief workers can benefit your business.

How does temporary recruitment work?

If you are thinking about bringing in short-term staff for an under-resourced project or to cover an existing employee on leave, the good news is that it’s very easy to do. Everything starts with a short phone call, where we ascertain your needs and requirements. We may also visit your offices to ensure we know exactly how to support the contingent worker while they are with you.

We’ll then use multiple avenues (including our existing pool) to find the top candidates to present to you. If the role needs to be advertised, this is also something we handle. Once you’ve selected your temporary worker(s), we handle all the onboarding, back office, and payroll responsibilities. Your only task after they start is to confirm their weekly timesheet is accurate so that we can process their salaries.

How much do temporary workers cost?

Hiring temporary talent is a cost-effective option for any business. While the cost will naturally vary depending on the role you need to fill, you can expect to pay a fee that is commensurate with the skills and experience of the worker and also covers our administrative and payroll costs.
