Optimised, localised volume recruitment strategy with Project RPO

The client sought to build up operations in the Philippines, seeking various roles across the technology, HR, back office, and finance functions. However, aside from the need, the client had little to work with - being new to the market, the client sought out Robert Walters to facilitate their knowledge of the region and the potential it holds, while leveraging our expertise in hiring across key functions.

A key factor to the client’s confidence in us stemmed from prior success working with us, halfway across the globe in EMEA. Robert Walters was the client’s preferred MSP provider in the region, supporting their contingent hiring efforts in 13 countries.

In line with the client’s urgent hiring needs, with an eye for long-term employer brand development, we designed a bespoke solution based off our Project RPO model. Here, Robert Walters can implement an effective hiring process within six weeks and find you the talent you need at the volume and speed you require, without adding headcount to your talent acquisition team.

This was managed by a highly efficient team of 3 onsite recruiters who handle end-to-end recruitment for shared services, back office, HR and finance roles in Mandaluyong, who also serve as chief SMEs and planners of adjacent campus hiring projects.

Robert Walters has been instrumental to our presence in the Philippines and Malaysia. They've made our RPO experience both insightful with their data-driven insights, and collaboratively value-adding - helping to build and consolidate our brand in-region while navigating our hiring peaks and troughs.
