The company quickly deployed skilled professionals to difficult-to-staff areas with the help of Technical Resources. 

In 2016, a company that develops bespoke electronic security solutions secured a major rollout project. The work involved installing CCTV cameras throughout various commercial estates in the UK. 

With the project set to start soon, they needed to quickly hire and deploy engineers to different sites all over the country.

Finding the right talent in challenging locations 

The company decided to partner with Technical Resources, a recruitment provider focused on specialist industries that included the Fire & Security sector. To ensure that timelines stayed on track, our team immediately went to work. 

Access a nationwide talent pool of skilled professionals 

Utilising our professional network, we quickly found skilled and experienced engineers located near the project sites. This eliminated the need for accommodations and ensured a fast response to any requests. 

Each engineer was thoroughly vetted to ensure that they had all the necessary tools, vehicles, certifications, and liability insurance for the job. 

In addition to providing talent, we also developed a tailored recruitment solution that included: 

• An accessible point of contact for the project manager to communicate with regularly, including after hours, as many installations are done at night. 
• Consistent check-in calls to monitor progress and address any issues. 
• Developing opportunities to build a positive working relationship with the engineers, making it easier to book them for future projects. 
• Management of payroll, allowing Technical Resources to attract top talent with a weekly payment policy while offering the company flexible payment terms to ease cash flow. 

Once deployed, the engineers were able to deliver their work quickly which contributed to the prompt completion of the installation projects. With access to a nationwide talent pool of highly skilled professionals, the company was now better positioned to capitalise on future opportunities. 

Today, the company continues to rely on Technical Resources as a trusted partner for their talent needs.
