What is a Managed Service?

 

A Managed Service is when a specialist recruitment agency takes full responsibility for managing the recruitment of temporary staff.

 

From sourcing candidates, managing a supply chain of recruitment agencies and engaging with the temporary workforce, Affinity Workforce recruits and fills temporary vacancy requests for teaching and non-teaching staff in Multi-Academy Trusts.

 

Affinity Workforce Solutions delivers Managed Service Solutions via the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) framework, which provides schools with an open, fair and transparent route when hiring temporary staff. Our commitment to delivering quality recruitment services is reflected in our strong presence within the CCS framework.

What our clients have to say…

 

 

“The technology was far and beyond with AWS. It made life a lot easier from a finance perspective. The invoicing was easier and enabled us to deliver the agreement.

 

The transparency from the start was great, they have always been honest about what they are able to do. The partnership has been invaluable.”

What our clients have to say…

 

 

“Working with AWS on a managed service solution for our supply staff has dramatically reduced administration time for processing invoices and checking timesheets.

 

Using the AWS portal means error rates are practically zero and we estimate that we only spend about 30% of the time processing payments now, as compared to our previous arrangements with multiple suppliers. Costs are lower too.”
