Case study A - University
Tate has partnered with a
Russell Group University client in
a Managed Service arrangement
for the last three years to 昀椀nd and
place 昀氀exible staf昀椀ng across a
range of roles including cleaning,
catering, 昀椀nance, procurement,
and IT for 11 faculties, working
with over 250 hiring managers.
The Challenge
The use of agency staf昀椀ng services across
the university was complex and fragmented.
The lack of coordinated compliance
governance and cost management created
opportunities to work more ef昀椀ciently.
In 2020, the university made the decision to
streamline its agency supply chain making
the decision to award the contract to Tate
as the Managed Service Provider (MSP),
following a competitive tender process.
How we delivered
a successful campaign
A key standout point of success stories so far
is Tate’s strict compliance management to IR35
and Right to Work regulations. Tate assume full
responsibility and have robust systems in place
to manage the process.
Tate worked with the university’s Accounts Payable
team to establish a work昀氀ow that accommodated
their systems, while providing hiring managers
with the visibility they needed over current
and projected spend per department.
The Results
Over £1 million of cost saving achieved in 昀椀rst
3 years.
100% ful昀椀lment of all contingent worker roles
with an approximate £3.5m annual spend.
24% reduction in the time taken to 昀椀ll vacancies
in the 昀椀rst year.
178% more roles 昀椀lled in the second year
compared to year 1.
Less than 2% of 昀氀exible workers fail to complete
their agreed assignment, keeping attrition very low.
Less than 3% declined an offer to work
at the University, indicating a successful
targeted candidate attraction, engagement,
and onboarding strategy.
To source candidates, Tate implemented
a range of activities including featured
listings on its own job board and website
to pro昀椀le the bene昀椀ts of working for
the University, social media advertising,
attending local job fairs co-branded with
the University and attending the University’s
Open Days to engage with students for
昀氀exible or 昀椀xed-term work opportunities.
Tate’s technology platform is central to
the candidate screening and selection
process, enabling hiring teams to screen
and pro昀椀le personalities, ensuring that only
the most suitable candidates are shortlisted,
saving valuable time to hire.
Tate has formed a relationship
with this client built on trust and together
we have transformed how we recruit.
