Case Study: Tech Sector Staffing Support
Client:
A rapidly scaling Fintech startup based in Shoreditch, London.
Challenge:
The client's internal HR team of two was overwhelmed by a mandate to hire 50 software engineers and product managers within 90 days to meet project funding milestones. They lacked the bandwidth for high-volume sourcing and screening, and their existing process was too slow, risking their growth targets.
Labourer Agency Solution:
We provided a dedicated staff augmentation team consisting of two experienced Tech Resourcers and a Recruitment Coordinator. This team integrated with the client's internal ATS (Lever), operated under their brand, and focused exclusively on candidate sourcing, initial screening calls, and interview scheduling. We implemented advanced candidate screening strategies for 2026, including structured video interviews and skills-based assessments, to ensure quality.
Result:
Within the 90-day period, the augmented team sourced and screened over 800 candidates, coordinated 245 technical interviews, and facilitated 52 offers, of which 48 were accepted. The client met their critical hiring target, and their internal HR team was able to focus on onboarding and retention strategies. The project was completed 15% under the client's anticipated recruitment outsourcing budget.
"Labourer Agency didn't just send us CVs; they became an extension of our talent function. Their team's ability to grasp our culture and technical needs from day one was exceptional. They helped us find talent at scale without compromising on quality, which was vital for our growth phase."
— Head of Talent, London Fintech Client

Trust is the foundation of effective recruitment. Our multi-stage vetting process ensures every professional we represent is qualified, compliant, and ready to work. This is how we build a safer, more reliable workforce for London businesses.
1. Right to Work Verification
We conduct face-to-face or digital document checks using certified technology to establish a statutory excuse under UK law.
2. Identity & Address Checks
Photo ID (Passport, Driving Licence) and recent proof of address are verified to confirm identity and prevent fraud.
3. Reference Validation
Minimum of two professional references are contacted directly. We verify dates, role, performance, and reason for leaving.
4. Skills & Certification
Role-specific checks: CV validation, qualification certificates (degrees, NVQs), professional licences (CSCS, CPCS, SIA), and DBS checks where required.
The Result:
A comprehensive digital audit trail for each worker, providing you with full visibility and peace of mind. This robust approach helps you avoid the common hire employees, candidate screening mistakes to avoid, such as inadequate reference checking or failing to verify original documents.
