Case Study: UK-based University saves £150,000 in staffing agency spend with Blue Arrow

UK-based University saves £150,000 in staffing agency spend with Blue Arrow

A UK-based university faced challenges managing its recruitment supply chain, which involved five different staffing agencies supplying various temporary roles. This multi-agency approach led to inconsistent invoicing, fee structures, and management issues, resulting in poor visibility and control over spending and quality. The university partnered with Blue Arrow to consolidate its university staffing.

Blue Arrow became the sole supplier, implementing a single set of terms and a consistent fee structure. Through their dedicated service and online Client Portal, they provided real-time visibility and management. This solution saved the university £150,000 in agency spend in the first year, saved 5.5 weeks of admin time, and successfully filled 32 last-minute positions within the first three months.
