Datum RPO has continued its stellar year with the announcement that it has been awarded membership to the Association of Professional Staffing Companies, a trusted badge of quality.

Datum RPO gained membership due to its innovative vendor neutral managed service that is helping to alter the traditional approach to recruiting staff directly through recruitment agencies. As such it is creating increased value for its clients, which include organisations such as CBRE and VINCI Construction plc, by taking a lead on recruitment innovation within the industry.

Ann Swain, Chief Executive of APSCo (the Association of Professional Staffing Companies) said: “APSCo was formed to give all firms involved in the recruitment of professional talent who have a commitment to excellence, the specialist support and distinctive voice they need to be successful. APSCo are delighted to welcome Datum RPO on board and look forward to working in unison with it. Datum share our dedication to professional recruitment and we hope to grow its dynamic brand of business strategy even further.”

Acceptance into the body is the latest achievement in a long line for Datum RPO. This includes being nominated in the Outstanding Outsourced Recruitment Organisation category in this year’s Recruiter Awards and receiving the award in November 2014 of ‘Innovative Supplier of the Year’ by Norland Managed Services, a key client for Datum RPO.

Jarrod Mollison, Business Solutions Director for Datum RPO, said: “It is a real honour for Datum RPO to officially become a member of APSCo alongside some great companies and recruitment innovators. We have worked very hard as a team to develop and implement a flexible solution that allows clients in a wide variety of sectors including construction, facilities management, engineering, care and logistics to benefit from cost-efficient solutions to managing their temporary agency labour. The acceptance into the body is recognition of our team’s dedication to this aim.”
