BUSINESS NEWS Meet the woman behind the business transforming the recruitment industry “We’re Mployable, We’re not a recruitment agency. We are your in-house, outsourced recruitment partners.” Rosie Stevens is the founder of Mployable, a fresh take on recruitment. Having worked in the industry for over ten years, Rosie saw the potential to do things a different way, helping businesses to grow stronger teams and attract and retain top talent. Rosie said, “We take the stress and hassle out of recruitment by blending the ease, familiarity and expertise of an in-house recruitment team, with the flexibility of an outsourced service. “We come to your business, get to know you and follow a carefully crafted process to embed within your business, ensuring we ‘look, act and feel’ like we work for you. “We build a strategy that saves you time and money by streamlining and outsourcing your recruitment with our subscription or pay as you go service. As an embedded hiring service, we work as an extension of your team to create a positive recruitment experience for both employer and talent.” Mployable offer a monthly subscription or pay as you go service offering flexibility throughout the year. The costs are based on the current size of your business and your ambitions for growth. They offer three packages, Scale, Grow and Pro. The idea is that you can use Mployable’s service when you need it and the transparent hourly rate gives you specialist recruitment support and advice without the commitment. Step 3: The Foundations We get super clear on who you are looking for, and where we are going to find them, through expertly crafted job descriptions, adverts and targeted marketing campaigns. Step 5: The Delivery We secure you the perfect candidate, time after time, with our ‘culture first’ approach to hiring. We run this process for all your recruitment, and combine it with regular meetings, calls and contact to consistently keep up to date with the changes to your business. Rosie Stevens The Mployable Way Step 1: The Onboarding We get everything in place to set up for success – including setting up a ‘careers@ yourbusinesshere’ email address and access your social media, so we never miss an opportunity to promote you as an ‘Employer of Choice’. Step 2: The Research We get to know you, your competitors and the movers and shakers of your industry. Knowledge is power. “I’ve worked on recruitment projects, from a multimillion-pound renewable energy business, where I build the HR and Recruitment strategy from the ground up, to innovating and leading a national graduate recruitment programme. I also implemented successful searches for the Chief Technology Officer and Chief Financial Officer. “I am CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development) qualified to diploma level and REC (Recruitment Employment Confederation) certified.” Rosie’s skills are complemented by Step 4: The Implementation Now we’re ready to run the process. CV screening, candidate selection and LinkedIn searching all come as standard, with our interview attendance as a ‘bolt on’ and support with the offer and negotiation process.
