Case Study: Oliver James Associates achieves 35% year-on-year growth with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

Oliver James Associates - Customer Case Study

Oliver James Associates, founded in 2002 to address a candidate‑short market in insurance recruitment, built a people‑first specialist firm focused on technical market knowledge and proactive sourcing. Facing the challenge of finding hard‑to‑reach talent, the company invested in a strong culture, clear career paths and continuous learning; that focus helped drive sustained organic growth (now ~350 employees serving 650 firms).

Their solution combined that investment in people with technology — most notably a full partnership with LinkedIn and use of the LinkedIn Recruiter Search Tool — to bring real‑time market insight, multiple outreach channels and scalable brand engagement. The result is more efficient, data‑driven recruitment, high levels of repeat business and roughly 35% year‑on‑year growth, with stronger market visibility and improved recruiter performance.
