Our Services...
Temporary and Contract Services (including fixed term)
Logical’s temporary and contract services division is equipped to meet the flexible and short-term contingent staffing needs of business on a 24/7 basis across all of our operating divisions. We understand that our client’s need a flexible and scalable workforce in order to operate effectively and to deliver on your customer promises.
We place great emphasis on training and developing our consultants and support staff. Many of our people have worked in the industries that they specialise in so they know your business and the language that you speak. They understand the way you operate, the time pressures and deadlines that you work to and the regulations and legislation governing your commercial activities. Deadlines, contract commitments and customer service objectives need to be met, whatever the circumstances and challenges.
We know that in some labour intensive functions and processes good quality, committed people who will look after your customers are in short supply. At Logical we not only maintain an extensive database of such people but we understand how to attract, source, recruit and retain them. Once they join us, we understand that they look to us to help fulfil their own needs and aspirations in terms of their work and careers. We provide them with rewarding and challenging flexible roles, ongoing training and, in many cases re-training in new disciplines, attractive wages, reward and incentive programmes and the opportunity to develop their own careers.
Logical is able to provide national and global coverage and a 24/7 commitment – we’re on call around the clock, every day of the week, regardless of time zone – to meet the needs of our clients and our temporary and contract workforce.
Permanent Recruitment Services
At Logical, our recruitment services are consultative, bespoke and comprehensive. Our service can be applied to the recruitment of a single candidate for a specific role or to large scale recruitment campaigns. We engage with our clients to develop and agree effective recruitment strategies and tactics and we execute thoroughly to completion. Completion, in our definition, means the end of the probationary period agreed between the client and the successful placed candidate. This means we continue our engagement with our client and with the successful candidate by supporting them both, beyond the first day of work right through to the point at which the candidate is notified by the client of continued employment.
Not only are our permanent recruitment services consultative, they are comprehensive and cover:
- Job description drafting;
- Candidate specification developing and drafting;
- Advertising copy drafting, media selection and placement;
- Campaign project management;
- Response handling;
- Profiling, screening, assessment and testing;
- Competency based initial interviews;
- Candidate short-listing;
- Off-site interview facilities for use by clients and candidates;
- Offer or rejection handling;
- Referencing and qualification validation;
- Security testing and clearance;
- Salary and benefits benchmarking; and
- Demographic surveys and forecasts.
We have a passion for making a significant difference to our clients businesses and for developing the skills and careers of our candidates. All of our candidates are passionate about what they do and are equally passionate about the development of their careers. Our candidates continue to choose Logical because they know we understand there needs and because they know we offer excellent training and career development and the prospect of working for some of the worlds most respected and exciting and employers.
Interim Management Services
Interim management is increasingly being used as a strategic resource by organisations of almost any size. Interim managers are often viewed as a resource that can be bought in to help steer organisations through tough times or to fill gaps in management. In some cases, they are seen simply as a tool to be used to avoid a permanent hire.
At Logical, we believe fundamentally that interim management is distinguishable as a strategic human capital resource option. An interim manager is a seasoned professional with the skills and experience to create and drive lasting change through an intense programme of work within a relatively short and pre-determined space of time. Interims are experts and leaders in their particular fields; whether as experienced CEO’s, executive directors or general managers or as functional specialists in areas such as finance, sales and marketing, human resources and information technology.
We are able to source and lease interims on a global basis with direct and relevant industry experience or corporate functional and project management experience to assist our clients to manage through uncertain economic times, to lead and drive specific projects or to provide additional strategic human capital resource to manage change and transition programmes.
Search and Selection Services
Executive Search or “head-hunting” is now the preferred method of top-level and specialist recruitment for most European companies. It is appropriate for senior appointments, where confidentiality is a high priority and prospective appointees are unlikely actively to be seeking alternative employment. It is also best for highly specialised positions.
Logical offers clients a director-led executive search & selection service in searching out and sourcing the best candidates for senior management positions and a high level of support throughout the recruitment process. Our clients range from multinational corporations to growing private businesses and our network of clients and contacts extends around the globe.
Our successful track record in executive search and selection is built on years of experience and a detailed knowledge of the industry segments we work in, underpinned by a robust research team and an excellent network of contacts.
The Logical search and selection offer
Each executive search assignment is unique and is based on sound brief taking and meticulous research utilising the latest technology and carried out with imagination, persistence and the utmost discretion. Clients who commission Logical can be confident that their assignments will be undertaken or overseen personally by one of our directors and not delegated to a more junior member of staff. We are renowned for the degree of our involvement in the recruitment process and will partner and guide clients through the final, often sensitive stages of selection and appointment until a successful conclusion is reached.
Our strong track record has been built on the professional capabilities of our directors who, between them, have over 50 years of experience in recruitment at a senior level. At Logical we recognise that our future success is dependent on our continuing ability to deliver creative and successful executive recruitment solutions that will provide clients with competitive advantage in today's increasingly competitive markets. As a result we build long-term relationships with our clients, maintaining awareness of trends and changes in their business environment and senior management requirements
Adding value
Strong leadership is essential to the delivery of a company's strategy and vision. This means that recruiting the right individual can add considerable value to an organisation. While the right strengths and capabilities are fundamental, the recruitment process should ensure that the preferred candidate will enhance the existing skill set of the senior management team and that they will be a good fit in terms of management style, cultural background and personality. Today's successful companies require specific qualities over and above the core skills and experience required for the job. They are likely to be seeking a standard of leadership commensurate with the next stage in their growth, development or diversification.
Logical has access to a range of candidate assessment techniques, including psychometric assessment, further in-depth structured interviews and development centre activities. These techniques provide an objective view of candidates' competencies to inform and assist the selection process.
Confidentiality
At Logical we offer discreet and confidential search and selection services. We understand that for a number of reasons, clients may not wish it to be known they are recruiting at director or executive level and candidates are equally sensitive to the need for discretion and confidentiality.
Managed Recruitment Services
Logical is equipped to deliver an extensive portfolio of managed services to its clients including:
Recruitment Process Outsourcing
More and more organisations are outsourcing certain business processes to specialist providers. Here at Logical, our speciality is the provision of human capital services and one of our core competencies is recruitment. Linking our recruitment capability with our management and consulting expertise provides clients with a compelling RPO option allowing them to outsource some or all of the recruitment function for Logical to manage in its entirety. In this service model we are embedded in the client’s business as an intrinsic component of the HR function. We work with our clients to shape and develop recruitment strategy and tactics across the whole organisation to deliver the totality of recruitment needs.
This service model provides:
- Permanent access to the recruitment capacity of one of the UK’s leading recruitment, staffing and human capital services organisations;
- A partner to consult with on developing recruitment strategy and tactics – short, medium and long-term;
- Improved efficiency of the recruitment business process and supply chain; and
- Improved productivity; lowering the unit cost of recruitment.
- Substituting fixed recruitment costs for variable costs based on bespoke deliverables.
Vendor Management
Engaging Logical to act as a master vendor allows clients to control the time and cost associated with staffing and recruitment to a greater degree than ever before. Quality and productivity is improved whilst costs can be lowered. Organisations dealing with multiple recruitment providers are often not able to achieve the best and most consistent value for money. The organisations own line managers are required to be further engaged than necessary diminishing focus on their core activities and responsibilities. Dealing with multiple providers in this way means that organisations rarely know the true cost of recruitment and suffer inconsistent and sub-standard service delivery.
A master vendor relationship with Logical not only identifies the real cost of recruitment, but that cost is delivered through a single invoice. The recruitment supply chain is rationalised and improved, lowering the unit cost of recruitment. The service model also enables the establishment of a definitive service standard enshrined in a Service Level Agreement and the delivery of bespoke management information covering all recruitment activity.
Logical’s service is offered to clients where it may be a direct provider of staff or on a “neutral” basis where we do not provide any staff directly and only manage the vendor group on behalf of the client.
Clients can trust in a master vendor relationship with Logical. We have the experience, existing relationships with a select group of trusted suppliers and the tools and processes to deliver a cost effective, value added and quality guaranteed service.
On-site Managed Services
Some clients task Logical to coordinate and manage the provision of recruitment, staffing and other human capital management services from their own premises, particularly where site demand and volumes are high. We have a significant amount of experience of managing service delivery from client premises both in the UK and internationally, often placing individual Account Managers through to placing whole teams on site. The benefits of this approach are that a deeper understanding is forged as a result of closer integration into the clients business and culture. This leads to enhanced management and coordination of the service process, closer involvement with client operational staff to delivering better communication and responsiveness to needs and the development of bespoke operational and financial management information, often using the clients own systems and processes.
