Managing workforce requirements effectively doesn't have to be a barrier to growth.

For Xtravirt, changes surrounding IR35 created a need to review how its associate workforce was engaged and managed.

They needed more than a quick fix. They needed a partner that could look at the wider workforce picture.

Church International's Talent Life Cycle team reviewed Xtravirt's processes, existing associate network and contractual arrangements, supporting Xtravirt with the information and processes needed to manage IR35 considerations appropriately. The associate workforce was then transitioned into our managed service with appropriate engagement and workforce management processes in place.

The relationship subsequently expanded into wider managed onboarding, including screening, referencing, contractual requirements and additional client-specific checks.

The commercial impact is particularly significant.

Xtravirt reported a 5%+ increase in revenue within 12 months, with its ability to deploy associate resources across more customer engagements, supported by these processes, contributing to that growth.

It's a strong example of why good workforce management isn't simply about reducing risk.

Managed effectively, it can give a business greater confidence in how it uses flexible talent while supporting commercial growth.

Hiring technology talent across borders can open up a much bigger pool of specialist skills.

But it doesn't create one big hiring market.

Employment requirements differ.

Contracting structures differ.

Tax and worker classification can differ.

Notice periods and common hiring practices differ.

And the location of the individual, the organisation engaging them and where the work will actually be performed can all matter.

For organisations recruiting internationally, understanding those differences needs to happen before the preferred candidate is ready to start.

Otherwise, access to a wider talent pool can quickly be undermined by an engagement model that doesn't meet the requirements for the market you're hiring in.

At Church International, we recruit specialist IT professionals across the UK and Europe, including long-established markets in Belgium, Holland and Switzerland.

That international experience means understanding more than where the talent is.

It means understanding the recruitment landscape and practical considerations in the market you're hiring them into.

Because international recruitment isn't simply domestic recruitment with a wider search radius.

How does your hiring process change when the person you need sits in another market?

Compliance doesn't usually make the hiring process faster.

But getting it wrong can make hiring a lot slower, and a lot more expensive.

Worker classification. Local tax and employment requirements. Right to work. Screening. Contractual requirements. None of it is the exciting part of recruitment.

All of it can create problems when it's considered too late.

The organisations that manage this well don't treat compliance as a final check once they've found the person they want to hire.

They consider it as part of the recruitment process from the beginning.

What type of engagement is appropriate?

What checks will be required?

Are there specific regulatory or contractual requirements?

Is there anything that could delay the person starting?

Answering those questions early can make the journey from identifying the right person to actually getting them into the business considerably smoother.

At Church International, we work across permanent and contract technology recruitment, with compliance and onboarding forming part of the wider recruitment process.

Because finding the right person is only part of making a successful hire.

Where should you build a technology team if you're not sure where the talent is?

That was the challenge facing IMI Hydronic Engineering when they were looking to establish an ERP Competency Centre in Europe.
Rather than starting with recruitment, we started with the market.

We researched the availability of specialist ERP skills across potential locations, looking at factors including talent availability, costs, language capabilities and candidate preferences.

The findings helped shape a much bigger decision: where the Competency Centre should actually be located.

It's a good example of why understanding the talent landscape can be just as important as finding candidates.

At Church International, our international IT recruitment expertise gives clients access to more than candidates. It gives them insight into the markets those candidates come from.

Some of the hardest technology roles to fill aren't necessarily the most obvious ones.

For BNP Paribas Fortis, specialist web infrastructure and security skills were proving critical, highlighting exactly the kind of challenge we're exploring in our latest Talent & Skills Landscape content.

When skills are specialist and competition is high, simply advertising a role isn't enough. You need to understand the talent market, move quickly and have a recruitment strategy that can consistently reach the right people.

For BNP Paribas Fortis, our dedicated account management approach has helped them secure specialist talent against real project deadlines, with a close understanding of their requirements and technology environment.

It's a good example of how international IT recruitment can work when the relationship goes beyond filling individual vacancies.

In case you missed it last week: we wrote about what's actually changed in the technology talent market, and why the organisations navigating it well aren't the ones with the biggest budgets, they're the ones making better-informed decisions earlier.

Worth a read if you're hiring for cybersecurity, cloud, data or compliance-related tech roles this year.
