Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO)

Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a Manpower recruitment service through which we take over and operate our clients’ recruitment processes, either in full or in clearly defined parts.

RPO is not a one-off recruitment solution, but an ongoing partnership in which recruitment is aligned with the client’s business needs, organisational setup and available resources. Our goal is to ensure a predictable, flexible and transparent recruitment operation while consistently maintaining quality and a strong candidate experience.

What does this mean in practice?

Our RPO service can cover the entire recruitment lifecycle or selected stages of it, from demand intake and priority setting through sourcing and selection, all the way to offer management and onboarding support.

Delivery can be provided in an onsite, offsite or hybrid model, fully integrated into the client’s day-to-day operations.

Market mapping and decision support

As part of our RPO service, we support recruitment through market mapping, providing a realistic picture of the labour market for specific roles, including talent availability and salary levels.

This analysis helps define recruitment priorities, refine expectations and support well-informed hiring decisions.

Flexible solutions for different needs

RPO can be applied flexibly, either short- or long-term, on a project basis or as a continuous operation. Our solutions are suitable for white-collar, blue-collar and expert roles alike, supporting both growth-driven hiring and resource optimisation goals.

More than operational recruitment

At Manpower, RPO is not limited to executing recruitment tasks. The service is designed to increase process transparency, enable efficient collaboration and support adaptation to a changing business environment.

RPO allows our clients to focus on their core business activities while recruitment operations run within a stable, sustainable long-term framework.
