The Challenge
Our client, Jeppesen’s Global Navigation Services (GNS) department, required an implementation of a direct sourcing strategy for GNS in Poland. They aimed to enhance their recruitment process, attract top talent, and establish a strong employer brand in the competitive Polish market. However, several obstacles stood in their way:
- Multi-location coordination: Coordinating and executing recruitment and assessment centre programs across multiple locations posed complexities for standardised processes and candidate experiences.
- Manager experience enhancement: Improving the manager experience required a user-friendly one-stop shop solution to streamline interactions and simplify decision-making.
- Compliance with taxation and local legislation: Navigating diverse tax and labour laws in multiple countries demanded compliance to avoid legal risks during talent acquisition.
- Employer brand visibility: Establishing a strong employer brand in the Polish market called for targeted branding efforts to attract top talent effectively.
Our Solution
Following a successful MSP programme launch in February 2019, Jeppesen outsourced their GNS departments’ full recruitment and assessment centre programme in Poland to CXC. The solutions implemented included:
- Direct sourcing: CXC developed a custom branded direct sourcing strategy, enhancing candidate attraction and building GNS’ employer brand in the Polish market.
- Beeline Vendor Management System (VMS) management: CXC managed the client’s Beeline VMS for both supplier and direct recruitment, streamlining onboarding, invoicing, and payroll processes.
- Talent pool technologies: Using talent pool technologies, such as Elevate Direct, to efficiently manage and access potential candidates.
- Confluence intranet page: A dedicated intranet page was created between Jeppesen’s extension in Sweden and CXC, facilitating day-to-day contractor management and providing essential guidance.
- Streamlined onboarding: CXC streamlined onboarding activities, ensuring smooth completion of Blue Package, HireRight Background Screening, and Boeing Electronic Messaging System ID (BEMSID) processes for new hires.
- Supply chain management: CXC effectively managed the supply chain across all the client’s locations, optimising efficiency and coordination.
