Greythorn, the IT and Telecommunications recruiter, announced today that it has implemented a front office staffing system from recruitment software provider, Bullhorn. The new software will allow Greythorn consultants to manage their communication with candidates, colleagues, and clients from one system.
The centralised nature of the platform means consultants need not spend excessive amounts of time on different networking tools and job boards as the system is able to link with them all. This will free up significant amounts of consultants’ time, allowing them to focus on generating revenue.
Paul Winchester, Managing Director, Greythorn said, “The software is intuitive and closely aligned to our business processes. We expect it to increase productivity by up to fifteen per cent and help consultants collectively close up to fifty more sales every year. With the help of the Bullhorn system we are aiming to be even more responsive to our clients.”
The Bullhorn system closely matches and supports Greythorn’s operational practice. The new software is designed to capture key information accurately, without imposing an additional workload on consultants. Email is tightly integrated with application, and key internet resources such as LinkedIn are accessible directly – so consultants never have to leave Bullhorn. This will ensure all relevant activities, such as emails to candidates, are tracked automatically.
Guy Deterding, ICT Director for Greythorn’s parent, the FiveTen Group said, “The new software will bring sales and management closer together. It will enhance our management information, allowing us to assess best practice in a timely manner and improve the company’s productivity and profitability. We also plan to link the accurate, up to the minute data it produces to our back office and on-line timesheets. It’s a very comprehensive proposition in a class of its own.”
Greythorn recruits for all aspects of IT, ranging from Business Management, to Quality Assurance, and Testing.
Delivered through software as a service, Bullhorn’s completely extensible solution supports the business and recruitment needs of over 1,600 firms and 16,000 users worldwide.
UK Managing Director of Bullhorn, Peter Linas said, “In Greythorn, we have found a forward-looking, innovative partner, eager to work with us to continually enhance our application and their own recruitment practices. We look forward to building on a long-term partnership with Greythorn, while helping them to consistently drive Bullhorn’s cutting-edge products and services to the fullest capacity.”
