Taleo solutions implemented to manage internal mobility and recruitment for its 22,000 member workforce
Taleo Corporation, a leading provider of enterprise staffing management solutions, announced recently that Alexander Mann Solutions (AMS) selected Taleo on behalf of its major new partner, ANZ. The Bank has partnered with AMS to implement a new recruitment, retention and reassignment strategy.

Alexander Mann Solutions Managing Director Mike Chapman commented, ìThe recognition that the quality and utilisation of an organisationís workforce is intrinsically linked to performance is slowly being recognised as more important by corporations in Australia. AMS has been contracted as a partner provider to deliver the highest quality staff, at the lowest possible cost, and to also measure the outcomes from a financial perspective for the Bank. The financial services sector is an extremely competitive market and it is becoming increasingly important to be able to efficiently communicate with external candidates, internal employees, hiring managers and the HR organisation in order to maximise productivity across the corporation.î

Mr. Chapman continued, ìAs an organisation that is compensated and benchmarked on our performance, AMS must have a highly configurable technology platform that allows for multiple hiring processes across large complex organisations, and also be able to measure this information with integrity. The implementation we had with Taleo for our Partner has gone live, and was on time and on budget. The Taleo team understands best practices in this business and its solutions allowed for an implementation to be completed very quickly and with a single code base for our applications. Taleoís solutions allow us to continue to measure, improve and evolve important staffing processes as we further define the bankís needs, all at no additional costs to us.î

Taleo Managing Director, Asia-Pacific, Paul Callander stated, ìIt has been a pleasure to go through the selection process and due diligence with Alexander Mann. As an outsourced solutions provider, AMS understands that the maximum ROI they can deliver to a major corporation will only come by enabling the movement of people within the workforce as effectively as possible. This translates to increased productivity and profitability for all parties and was key in their selection of Taleo. Taleoís solutions ensure staffing process consistency and optimization to find quality candidates quickly while increasing retention throughout organizations.î

Taleo Vice President of International Sales Benoit Leclerc stated, ìTaleo has multiple large financial companies as customers today and understands the complex requirements of these organisationsí hiring and reassignment processes on a global basis. AMS and Taleo are delivering on our joint commitments to the bank.î He continued, ìUltimately, in a very short time, our solutions provide end users with complete visibility into the companyís internal and external talent pools, and also have the capabilities to assign certain skill-sets, immediately, in the most meaningful and cost effective ways in order to achieve maximum productivity at the company. We look forward to providing such meaningful benefits.î
