Gi Group Holding Featured in “RPO Global Landscape and Differentiators” Report

Milan, Italy – November 12th, 2024

Gi Group Holding is pleased to announce its inaugural feature in the Staffing Industry Analysts’ (SIA) 2024 report, “RPO Global Landscape and Differentiators”. This report delivers an in-depth perspective on the global Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) sector, detailing providers’ unique contributions and market standing worldwide.

We are honoured to be featured in SIA’s report, highlighting Gi Group Holding’s commitment to delivering impactful, globally-scaled recruitment process outsourcing solutions. This milestone reflects our dedication to assisting businesses as they navigate complex talent acquisition challenges and enhance their workforce strategies in today’s dynamic market.

Report Key Insights

SIA’s report estimates the global RPO market reached USD 8 billion in 2023, a 5% decline from 2022 due to economic and geopolitical challenges. Despite this, the demand for flexible talent solutions has surged, underscoring RPO providers’ role in providing adaptable, scalable services to meet evolving workforce needs.

Economic uncertainty presents both challenges and opportunities, with agility proving essential in recruitment. RPO providers, like Gi Group Holding, enable organisations to enhance their hiring processes, access top talent, and maintain operational resilience through bespoke, data-driven solutions. The continued skills gap has increased demand for multi-channel sourcing strategies, allowing RPOs to become indispensable in achieving clients’ workforce goals.

For insights on how RPO can support this adaptability, see our blog post on 7 Steps to Make Your RPO Partnership Successful, which outlines best practices for building a strong RPO partnership.

The report identifies emerging trends in the RPO market, particularly the integration of advanced technology, such as AI and machine learning, to enhance candidate sourcing and engagement. Gi Group Holding’s proprietary algorithms refine candidate-job matching and facilitate upskilling, resulting in high-quality talent pipelines.

Gi Group Holding’s RPO Offerings

As part of the report, Gi Group Holding’s RPO services are showcased, underscoring our commitment to helping clients achieve recruitment success through the expertise of our dedicated practices, Gi Group and Grafton, alongside  tech-driven HR solutions.

Launch of the 2023 Sustainable Work Report

Milan, Italy - July 25th, 2024

Gi Group Holding is proud to announce the release of its 2023 Sustainable Work Report. This comprehensive document underscores our commitment to fostering sustainable work environments and driving positive change in the global labor market.
Promoting and realizing sustainable work means making a concrete commitment to ensuring work is decent and safe, enhancing employability, generating satisfaction for both individuals and companies, promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, and using resources responsibly. Our efforts in these areas safeguard the future while addressing present challenges.

On the basis of these considerations, in 2023 Gi Group Holding elaborated a new version of its Sustainable Work Manifesto.

Last year, we undertook significant initiatives to reinforce our commitment to sustainable work. Our Fondazione Gi Group played a crucial role by enhancing our understanding of the employment context. This included launching the study "Youth and Work," which explores ways to empower young people to enter and remain in the workforce, thereby addressing the NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) phenomenon. Our employees embraced these insights and transformed them into tangible initiatives to support the communities to which we belong. In this Sustainable Work Report, you will find details of this and other initiatives from the past 12 months. Initiatives that we hope reflect and translate to the readers of this document how we are embracing each opportunity to contribute to the evolution of the labor market.

Starting from fiscal year 2024, Gi Group Holding will comply with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) guidelines and requirements. To ensure alignment with these standards, we have conducted a comprehensive gap analysis to identify areas for improvement. This analysis has informed the development of a detailed roadmap, guiding us in the preparation of future reports to meet the directive’s requirements consistently.
