The Challenge

Nutricia had plans for future growth and service expansion opportunities which were dependent on the sourcing and on boarding of high quality nursing talent. Due to internal capacity constraints, Nutricia required an outsourced partner to support the development and management of a strong talent pipeline.

At the time, Nutricia were reliant on agency sourcing, which accounted for the majority of hires and that proved detrimental to both the permanent candidate experience and the employer brand.
