human forward.
Societe Generale's program includes:
• A complete end-to-end integrated talent
solution that delivers nearly 1,000 recruitment
transactions a year comprised of both
permanent employees and contingent workers.
The program, which encompasses virtually all of
the Societe Generale's businesses in the U.K., has
scaled up seamlessly as the client's needs have
nearly doubled over three years.
• On-site talent advisors working with hiring
managers to determine the best type of talent —
permanent, contingent, contractors, freelancers,
etc. This enables Societe Generale to apply the
most appropriate resources to the roles and
work required, and has a been a critical driver of
partnership success.
• Continuous enhancements that include investing
a portion of program fees on delivering
innovations to Societe Generale.
• While the previous RPO provider placed roles
only up to the VP level, our talent advisors
manage roles up to managing director level,
demonstrating Societe Generale's confidence
in Randstad Sourceright's ability to recruit
executive-level candidates.
• By increasing the percentage of permanent
workers and contingent talent sourced directly
by Randstad Sourceright, the program has
dramatically reduced supplier spend. In year
three, cost avoidance reached more than
€8 million as supplier-placed workers accounted
for only 13% of all hires.
• In a market of larger competitors,
Societe Generale is among competitors as
a result of a focused and far-reaching
employer brand strategy supported by
Randstad Sourceright, which helps the
company "glocalize" its approach. This
includes a process of discovery, analysis and
execution around a wide array of activities such
as junior talent recruitment, workforce diversity,
social media and event sponsorships.
• With an emphasis on recruiting high-energy
junior talent, the program has vigorously
engaged with students at major universities to
recruit the most promising graduates.
• The success of the U.K. program has led Societe
Generale to partner with Randstad Sourceright
in other markets, including an RPO roll-out in
Switzerland and other programs globally.
