Overview
Cpl delivered a multi-year specialist technology recruitment partnership and RPO-style recruitment solution to support the growth of a major international R&D centre in regional Ireland. The partnership combined specialist sourcing, account management, reporting and market insight to support specialist hiring and changing demand.
Background
A global financial technology provider established a major international R&D centre in regional Ireland to support technology development and long-term product innovation. Achieving this required access to specialist talent in regional Ireland, where relevant technology talent pools were smaller and candidate availability was more constrained than in larger urban markets.
Challenge
The client needed to support sustained technology hiring in a regulated environment while building employer awareness in Ireland and competing for specialist technology talent. Recruitment demand spanned software engineering, platform, data and analysis-based roles, with hiring volumes shifting as business priorities evolved. Projects could accelerate, pause or change direction at short notice, requiring a model that could flex with demand while maintaining pipeline development, hiring manager engagement and visibility of recruitment risk.
Solution
Cpl designed a dedicated recruitment model combining account leadership, specialist sourcing, employer value proposition messaging, structured pipeline reporting and practical market insight.
