Award-winning recruitment investors, Recruitment Entrepreneur introduce two companies to integrate platforms resulting in the offering of world-class service.

October 05, 2020 (London, UK) – Recruitment Entrepreneur have always been pioneers in providing recruitment solutions, looking for new ways of improving efficiency for the 19 portfolio partners within their recruitment group. So, when they were looking to expand their back-office and payroll provider to service demand within the constantly growing group, they had some key strategic decisions to make.

JobAdder, a leader in the recruitment software industry, has been a close partner with Recruitment Entrepreneur since launching its CRM platform in the UK. They, therefore, decided that any back-office service provider they chose needed to fully integrate with JobAdder’s CRM. After researching several providers, Workr Solutions were selected on the premise of their outstanding track record and service, understanding of the group’s requirements, and shared vision of full platform integration with the CRM.

Following an introduction from Recruitment Entrepreneur, the two providers developed an API ensuring seamless data flow from one system to another. This allows complete visibility of all accountancy and payroll activity, across all 19 portfolio businesses, at a company and group level. Most importantly it has reduced immediate and long-term costs, and dramatically improved efficiency and the end-user contractor experience, resulting in excellent feedback.

Angus McDowell, CFO of Recruitment Entrepreneur commented, “What was so impressive was the collaboration between JobAdder and Workr Solutions. They worked hard over six months to deliver against the unique requirements of all our businesses, and the customer service levels have surpassed our expectations. Everyone in the group is trained and the result is that we have an automated system that facilitates the growth and scale of our group. We’ve already seen the efficiency it’s provided, along with the removal of any manual error”.

Abid Hamid, CEO for the group said, “The outcome of the introduction has been that both JobAdder and Workr Solutions can now offer a best in class product suite, that’s been robustly tried and tested by a wide range of businesses, that are both diverse and complex. As well as us now being able to provide this transformational new service to new portfolio partners as we further scale our operation; it’s also created the opportunity for the two providers to reach out to their respective clients with the option of providing a wider integrated solution”.

Darren Watts, Co-Founder of JobAdder, said of the partnership "This has been an exciting initiative and we are thrilled to be partnering with Workr Solutions. The collaboration between JobAdder and Workr Solutions has provided Recruitment Entrepreneur with considerable efficiency gains and we look forward to offering this solution to other organisations across Europe." 

Yves Bizimana, Managing Director of Workr Solutions advised, “'We were delighted to be the partner of choice and work alongside Job Adder. By working collaboratively from the outset we were able to define outcomes and what success would look like and use our insights to blend our people, processes, and technology. The result is a compliant and future-fit solution, tailored to the way Recruitment Entrepreneur works, that delivers a measurable return on investment.'
