A tailored approach to your hiring needs
Managing multiple recruitment companies and unpredictable hiring costs can drain your resources. A Reed PSL partnership provides a single, streamlined solution for your organisation. We work as an extension of your team to deliver consistent, high-quality recruitment services across all industries.
Whether you need temporary cover, contract support, or permanent team members, we tailor our approach to align perfectly with your business goals. You gain priority access to our extensive professional network, ensuring you never miss out on the best people available.
As a preferred partner, you also gain a gateway to our wider group services and can benefit from preferential rates. This includes employee vetting, salary benchmarking, workforce planning, talent consultancy, and outsourced solutions like BPO), managed service programmes (MSP), and recruitment process outsourcing (RPO). This integrated access allows you to consolidate your talent acquisition and HR needs efficiently.
Service level agreements (SLAs)
We define clear expectations around response times, quality of the people we provide, and reporting. This guarantees consistent service delivery across every job vacancy you list with us.
Preferential commercial terms
Benefit from upfront agreements on rates, payment terms, and volume-based discounts. This removes the need for lengthy negotiations on individual hires.
Dedicated account management
You receive a single point of contact responsible for your relationship performance. They provide strategic oversight, continuous support, and clear communication.
Seamless tech integration
We link directly with your applicant tracking systems (ATS) and time sheet systems to reduce your administrative burden.
Comprehensive compliance
Our team manages the risk for you. Our agreed standards cover vetting, onboarding, audits, IR35, and right-to-work checks, keeping your business secure and compliant.
With Reed, it’s not just about filling roles. It’s about building the right talent pool to support your organisation now and in the future.
