Case Study Contingent Workers

​

Challenge

Meta’s Novi project and R4R program presented significant challenges, requiring the rapid recruitment of contingent workers across a variety of roles, including compliance, banking, engineering, recruitment, and HR. The challenge was not only to meet tight hiring deadlines but also to manage the complete HR, payroll, and compliance responsibilities for these hires. With Principle competing against 26 suppliers for general staffing and 24 for the specialised Novi and R4R projects, the pressure was on to deliver exceptional results while maintaining Meta’s high standards for talent and workforce integration.

​

​Mandate

Principle was entrusted with:

• Supporting Meta’s Novi project by recruiting 88 contingent workers across compliance, banking, engineering, and support roles, all within a 3-month window.

• Leading the recruitment efforts for the R4R program, filling roles such as Recruitment Coordinators, Recruiters, Executive Assistants, Onboarding Specialists, and HR professionals in the UK and Ireland.

• Managing the full recruitment lifecycle, including talent acquisition, payroll, onboarding, and compliance for all contingent workers.

• Maintaining its position as one of Meta’s top 3 suppliers by continuing to meet high-volume and high-quality recruitment targets across diverse functions.

​

Solution

Leveraging advanced AI-driven recruitment strategies and a deep understanding of Meta’s operational requirements, Principle implemented a streamlined recruitment process designed to quickly and efficiently source high-quality talent. For both the Novi and R4R projects, we utilised rigorous screening and selection techniques, ensuring that every candidate met Meta’s technical and cultural standards.

As one of three agencies selected from 24 suppliers for the Novi project, Principle successfully filled 88 contingent roles across compliance, banking, engineering, and support functions. Similarly, in the R4R program, Principle was chosen to help Meta meet its recruitment demands across HR and recruitment roles. By focusing on roles like Recruitment Coordinators, Executive Assistants, and HR professionals, we filled 78% of the positions given to all three agencies.

Principle also provided comprehensive HR services, including payroll management, onboarding, and ongoing compliance support, allowing Meta to focus on its core operations while we handled the workforce management complexities.​

In the Novi project, we successfully filled 88 contingent roles, representing 80% of the total workforce required within a 3-month timeframe. In the R4R program, Principle filled 78% of the roles assigned to the three selected agencies, playing a crucial role in Meta’s recruitment and operational support across the UK and Ireland.
