AON IRELAND

PROFESSIONAL RECRUITMENT

The Client

One of our clients, a well-respected Global Financial Service firm with over 60,000 employees across more than 100 countries approached us about an upcoming recruitment project they required assistance with.

The Challenge

The client was embedded in the Irish market and well known for the work they did in Financial Services and their employer brand was well known in that sector. They faced a challenge of building a R&D hub centred for Data Analytics and Technology which was a different type of talent than they previously hired for. They had a demand for up to 80 professionals and they had limited resources within their HR team. There was the added challenge that the people they were looking to hire were very niche and in high demand.

The Results

The client chose to work with Lincoln Recruitment on an exclusive agreement to assist them to hire the professionals they needed. Our team at Lincoln spent a significant amount of time on the client site to understand their needs and the type of person that would fit their culture. In partnership with the internal recruitment team we mapped out our vision and put together a plan to recruit and hire a quantum of Data and Technology specialists to build out this new team. We placed a strong focus on quality and we built a trust with the client to the point that they interviewed our candidates without screening and allowed us to set up interviews in their diaries. We enhanced their time to hire and improved the quality of candidate they attracted.

We provided a comprehensive pipeline of suitable candidates, not applicants
We had the subject matter experts internally to assist with these hires
We saved the client significant costs as we reduced our rates from our standard terms due to the exclusive relationship and volume of roles

Testimonial

Oisin O'Gogain HR Director

Lincoln have been a Recruitment Partner of Aon (one of only two preferred Agencies) for the last 12 months.
Whilst having delivered on a number of roles at both Executive, Managerial and Operative levels in our mature Insurance businesses in 2017; Lincoln have been particularly helpful in supporting our talent acquisition efforts in our Aon Centre for Innovation and Analytics (ACIA).
Lincoln have worked exclusively on a number of positions for us and importantly have always delivered our agreed results to our full satisfaction. Where challenges have arisen, they have been communicative and solution focused – that’s the distinction.
I have also found the entire Lincoln team to work extremely well with the Aon team, and importantly the Recruiters to demonstrate an in depth understanding of the market, the roles and the Aon offering which has enabled them to effectively promote our value proposition and, in doing so attracting the highest calibre of talent. Of note (and we check!), the experience has been hugely positive from our new colleagues introduced by Aon.
I fully anticipate the continuation of our partnership and have no hesitation in recommending Lincoln as a supplier of choice.
