Scaling Skilled Talent. Fast.

Faced with surging demand, one of the UK’s largest foodservice suppliers needed to recruit dozens of skilled operatives at speed – without sacrificing quality, compliance, or candidate experience.
Morson delivered a fully-scalable, high-volume recruitment solution that went live in just five days, hiring 70 specialist candidates within four months and achieving a 100 % direct-fill rate.

The Challenge

Keeping pace with surging demand

When demand for skilled operatives spiked across the client’s UK operations, their existing recruitment process couldn’t scale fast enough.

They needed:

  • A rapid-launch hiring solution that could be implemented in days, not months.
  • High-volume capability to source, screen, and onboard skilled roles across multiple locations.
  • A seamless candidate experience that reflected the client’s brand and culture.
  • A data-driven process to track performance, speed, and quality.

In short, they needed a partner who could balance volume with precision.

The Solution

Rapid deployment, smart process

Morson mobilised a dedicated delivery team – a “high-volume taskforce” combining recruitment specialists, digital attraction experts, and onboarding coordinators.

In just five working days, we:

  • Built and deployed a bespoke recruitment microsite integrated with digital advertising, job boards, and social targeting.
  • Created a streamlined selection process using pre-screening questions and digital assessment tools to fast-track quality candidates.
  • Implemented a real-time dashboard to track candidate flow, time-to-hire, and source performance.
  • Delivered full compliance and onboarding, including right-to-work checks, documentation, and health & safety briefings.

Throughout, the team worked as an extension of the client’s internal HR function – providing clear reporting, pipeline transparency, and weekly performance reviews.

The Results

Speed, scale, and quality

  • 70 skilled hires delivered in 4 months
  • 100 % direct-fill rate (no third-party agency dependency)
  • Process live in 5 days from brief to launch
  • Consistent 98 % fulfilment rate across contract duration
  • Zero compliance breaches and fully auditable workforce data

The new model created long-term value too – the client retained the digital tools and process templates to repeat and scale future recruitment campaigns faster and more efficiently.
