Recruitment Process Outsourcing
Build your team without building an internal recruitment function.
Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) provides organisations with dedicated recruitment expertise without the cost and commitment of expanding their internal team.
​
Whether you are growing rapidly, recruiting regularly or looking to reduce reliance on multiple recruitment agencies, Vela becomes an extension of your business, managing recruitment as though we were part of your own organisation.

What is Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)?
Many organisations reach a point where recruitment becomes too frequent to manage effectively in-house, yet not consistent enough to justify employing a full-time recruiter.
​
Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) bridges that gap.
​
Instead of engaging multiple recruitment agencies on every vacancy, Vela works as your dedicated recruitment partner, managing recruitment across your organisation for an agreed monthly retainer, with transparent fees linked to successful hires.
​
Vela acts as an extension of your team, managing the process from defining the requirements and sourcing CVs, through to designing selection exercises and scheduling interviews.
​
The result is a more consistent recruitment process, improved hiring quality and significantly lower recruitment costs, whilst freeing up hiring manager time.
