Case Study: UK-based Global University covers 1,329 shifts with Blue Arrow

UK-based Global University fills 1,329 shifts in 24 hours with Blue Arrow

Blue Arrow provided recruitment support for a UK-based global university facing a challenge in sourcing high-quality catering and hospitality staff for its multi-tiered food offering. Roles such as Chefs, Kitchen Porters, and Baristas were in high demand but short supply locally, making it difficult to fill shifts, especially with chefs who could handle varied menu types from casual to fine dining.

Using its extensive candidate database and online registration portal, Blue Arrow streamlined the recruitment and onboarding process. This solution reduced the average time to fill a shift to just 24 hours and saved the client 240 hours in administration. Blue Arrow successfully covered 1,329 shifts, and the quality of the temporary staff was so high that 12 placements were converted into permanent university positions.
