Commercial Refurbishment

The Challenge

They run an in house painting and decorating division with over 20 skilled tradespeople. When workload peaks, they need extra decorators. When projects slow down, they need flexibility to scale back quickly. Taking on permanent staff for short term spikes would increase overheads and risk redundancies later.

Solution

We cross hired 10 of their experienced decorators onto a three month retirement village project in Nottingham, keeping their workforce active during a quieter period.

Outcome

Taking on permanent staff for short term spikes would have increased overheads and risked redundancies later. We cross hired 10 of their decorators onto a three month project in Nottingham, keeping them in work during a quiet period. They retained their skilled team, avoided unnecessary costs, protected profit margins, and gained a recruitment partner who supports them through both busy and slower periods.
