Backed by the technology and services of the Adcorp Group, talentCRU enhances human capital capability.

Whether you’re looking for permanent professionals, a contingent workforce, ad hoc expertise, or help with an HR function, talentCRU empowers businesses with the right people and strategies. This level 2 B-BBEE accredited company delivers powerful MSP (managed service provider), RPO (recruitment process outsourcing), HRO (human resource outsourcing) workplace solutions in a centrally-managed, digitally-empowered, single-delivery channel. In an age where more organisations need to be more agile, their offering is likely to appeal to attendees of the HR Indaba.

Being agile means being able to respond quickly to the business environment and that is very much contingent on the approach to people practices. Here are four reasons to visit their exhibition stand if your organisation is considering agile methodologies.

1   Find efficient ways of engaging the contingent workforce. talentCRU helps clients increase their competitive advantage by aligning strategy with people and culture. Currently, their team of 100 experts manages an average of 7,000 permanent and 5,000 contingent placements a year through their RPO and MSP offerings.

“What we are able to guarantee is the consistency of service and spend visibility over the lifecycle of our engagement with clients, which means that they will very quickly be able to see the value of our offerings. We can drive down the cost of a vacancy as our clients are able to get the right people into the right vacancies in a shorter time frame with us, than they would otherwise be able to,” says talentCRU Managing Executive, Lerato Semenya.

2   It's a turnkey solution. Lerato adds that, whether you need someone to manage a single HR process, or a team to manage your entire HR function, talentCRU can be a strategic talent management partner.

“We’ll also guide you through the legislative landscape, compliance frameworks, and your related cost-benefit implications along the way,” she says. 

3   They are highly recommended. Leading global independent research analyst firm in business process outsourcing NelsonHall has identified talentCRU as a Next-Generation Managed Service Provider and a leader in Africa, rating them as a “Major Player” in MSP and as an “Innovator” in RPO in its 2019 NEAT Evaluation where the research focuses on the following categories: geographic scalability focus; agility focus; sourcing insight and innovation focus; and technology innovation focus.

4   Cast a wider net.  talentCRU’s offerings allow HR teams to create a more strategic focus on their business – getting more involved determining their workforce planning requirements in the wake of digital transformation and its related skills of the future demands.

“With a footprint in South Africa and Australia, our third-party talent supply base spans 400 suppliers, allowing us to fulfil clients’ resourcing needs at a reduced cost and lower risk,” says Lerato.
