de Poel launches new business offering for education sector

Matthew Sanders, award-winning recruitment entrepreneur and CEO of de Poel (the £650 million neutral vendor and largest procurer of temporary labour in the UK) has just launched a new solution, catering to the needs of organisations within the education sector.
 
de Poel’s offering provides customers with greater control and reduced risk over the quality, performance and cost of temporary labour in their organisations. This is underpinned by their innovative software solution, e-tips®, which has been designed to manage the use of contingent workers. e-tips® has been proven for over 14 years and is now close to one billion transacted hours.
 
As a response to growing demand in new markets and as a means to ensuring further customer engagement, de Poel Education was founded as a new solution for the education sector. The de Poel solution will help schools, nurseries and specialist educational institutions to get more from their agencies, in a compliant and cost-effective way. Their aims are to improve quality of teaching – minimising the impact cover lessons have on student progress, safeguard educational institutions and their students by providing regulation, and streamline administration with their 24/7 service.
 
de Poel Education works to reduce invoices dramatically, providing just one each week, alleviating clients of the associated administrative burden they face on a daily basis. In addition to this, de Poel Education offers substantial cost savings (up to 15%) typically incurred with procuring supply cover, and a compliance service, saving businesses the encumbrance of legal worries.
 
Through de Poel Education, clients have access to nearly 3,000 rigorously audited agencies that de Poel engages and transacts with on a weekly basis and subsequently a wider talent pool, comprising of high quality candidates.
 
Andrew Preston, Managing Director of de Poel Education (and also MD to sister company de Poel health+care), comments: “Through the success of de Poel, we spotted an opportunity to develop a solution that caters to the education sector.
 
“We have worked hard to create a smarter way of working for educational institutions and recruitment agencies, many more of which will now be able to access a wider talent pool of supply staff and have peace of mind when outsourcing the management of their temporary workforce.”
