Case Study: Queensland Rail achieves 63% faster hiring and major recruiting cost savings with PageUp RMS

Queensland Rail - Customer Case Study

Queensland Rail, Australia’s leading integrated transport provider with 14,000 employees, hires more than 2,000 people each year but was hampered by inefficient hiring processes: roughly $100 million spent on staffing agencies, slow time-to-fill, weak employer branding and poor candidate communications that risked losing top talent.

In under nine weeks Queensland Rail implemented PageUp’s cloud-based Recruitment Management Solution and ran a targeted training program to drive adoption. The automated system (talent pooling, interview scheduling, job posting and candidate search) significantly reduced agency spend, improved hiring efficiency by 63% (cutting time-to-fill to about one month), enabled rapid hires of specialist staff, strengthened internal talent pipelines and enhanced candidate experience and employer branding through targeted communications.
