The Challenge

When The Gym Group (TGG) embarked on a critical digital re-platforming transformation, time was of the essence. They needed high-calibre talent quickly. The Gym Group’s in-house recruitment function faced a significant challenge: to hire urgently for a number of pivotal roles essential to the success of the programme. With an ambitious timeline and high expectations, they couldn’t afford delays or mismatches.

The Solution

PROJECT RPO: 

Troi embedded a senior recruiter directly into The Gym Group’s recruitment team. Acting as a seamless extension of their BAU function, the embedded recruiter focused exclusively on securing the talent required for the transformation and managed the entire hiring life cycle for this project.

  • Full integration with TGG’s culture and processes
  • Specialised technical expertise to understand the project’s needs
  • Strong stakeholder management to keep everything moving at pace

The Results

The impact was immediate and measurable:

  • 14 hires made in just 3 months
  • All candidates onboarded within the agreed timeframe
  • Talent in place before the programme’s launch
  • A 100k saving compared to traditional agency models
  • 915k worth of offers, with Troi costs at just 88k
The Results

“"It's been an absolute pleasure working with Troi, while they have been embedded with my team. Their friendly and engaging personal style made integrating effortless… This project required them to bring their technical expertise and stakeholder management skills to deliver a number of critical hires within an extremely tight timescale and our expectations were exceeded in every respect. I'd have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Troi to anybody, and we look forward to working with them on similar projects in the future."”
