Relaunched in 2025, the company now integrates decades of industry expertise with innovative technologies to deliver transformative recruitment experiences.

Harvesting CVs from a call centre and then dialling for dollars, was an early 2000s model. Business development staff working in call centres are incentivised to get three CVs on your desk as soon as possible and to follow up with hiring directors. Smart Resource Solutions takes the time to understand the candidates’ capabilities, transferable skills, emotional intelligence, and business environment fit. Of note is Smart Job club.
Smart Job Club is an audio podcast where potential candidates can hear real job opportunities and are invited to send in their CVs. (Link to: Smart Job Club https://app.hiro.fm/channel/smart-job-club). We never reveal the employer’s name, but we pass through any CVs that may be interest them, so they can contact the candidate directly. There are no introduction fees or cost of advertising.

Research materials are everywhere, the issues could not be clearer, our customers are looking for informed dynamic service providers and not vendors who strive to lock in exclusivity. There is still an over-reliance on single vendors (e.g., AWS, Microsoft) and a rise in procurement ecosystem risk due to  contractual inflexibility which limits innovation. However, in a changing business world our industry must change too.

  1. An industry meeting new pressures

Smart recruiters must  stop relying on the same solutions, the tired  standard recruitment model is not sustainable.  Smart Resource Solutions has moved from merely fulfilling requirements to being part of partnering with companies to silver workforce problems.  We have evolved from a recruitment company to a fully-fledged work force management solutions partner, specialising in digital, emerging technology and project management roles. Our standard portfolio of services encompasses:  

  • Talent Acquisition:  Contract, Permanent or Executive hire
  • Outcomes based Consultancy: IR 35 compliant.
  • Skills development Services: Including training, coaching, and mentoring.
  • Business Analysis Services: Including corporate strategy support.

  • Our operating model though is built around the Co-Sourcing Model.
