01 What it covers

Recruitment Services (RPO): how it works for London teams

Recruitment services — often delivered as Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) — hand part or all of your hiring process to a specialist team: role intake, sourcing, screening, structured interviews and shortlisting, measured on time-to-fill and quality-of-hire. Pitch N Hire combines experienced recruiters with its own applicant-tracking and interview-assessment software to run this efficiently, whether you are filling roles in your own city or sourcing offshore talent. This is well suited to employers with spiky or high-volume hiring who need to scale recruiting capacity quickly without permanently growing an in-house talent team, and it plugs directly into PNH's ATS so your pipeline stays visible.

  • Managed sourcing, screening and shortlisting on demand
  • Structured interviews and assessments for consistent quality
  • Scales recruiting capacity for spiky or high-volume hiring
  • Runs on PNH's own ATS so your pipeline stays visible
  • Lower cost-per-hire than reactive agency fees
  • Funnel reporting on time-to-fill and source performance
02 How it runs

How recruitment services (rpo) works with Pitch N Hire

  1. Role intake

    We define each role with you — must-have skills, seniority, compensation band and the profile of a great hire — so sourcing is targeted from the start and everyone agrees on what 'qualified' means.

  2. Sourcing

    PNH's recruiters run multi-channel sourcing (job boards, databases, referrals and direct outreach) to build a pipeline of relevant active and passive candidates for your roles.

  3. Screening & assessment

    Candidates are screened against the brief and run through structured interviews and skills assessments in PNH's tooling, so only genuinely qualified people reach your shortlist.

  4. Shortlist & interviews

    You receive a ranked shortlist with notes and scorecards, and interview your top choices. We coordinate scheduling and keep candidates warm to reduce drop-off.

  5. Offer & onboarding

    We support offer management and handover to onboarding, and report on funnel metrics — time-to-fill, source performance and conversion — so the process keeps improving.

04 Local market

The London hiring market for this role

London is one of the world's leading technology and financial-technology centres, home to the densest concentration of startups, scale-ups, global banks and Big Tech engineering offices in the UK. Demand consistently outstrips supply for backend, cloud, data and security engineers, and the city's cost of living keeps salaries high, so employers compete hard on compensation, hybrid flexibility and speed of hiring.

London talent skews senior and product-experienced, with strong fintech, payments and regulated-industry exposure and deep pools in JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Python, cloud (AWS/Azure) and data engineering. Because competition is intense and notice periods run to three months, roles can take a long time to fill locally — a common reason London teams blend in offshore engineers for capacity.

05 Cost

Cost & the offshore option in London

London commands the UK's highest developer pay, with senior software engineers frequently in the region of £70k–£110k plus employer on-costs and London weighting. Offshore augmentation from India typically delivers comparable seniority at a materially lower blended rate, which is why cost-conscious London scale-ups run hybrid on-site plus offshore teams.

For London founders and engineering leaders, the fastest route to added capacity is often an offshore pod: PNH sources and vets India-based engineers, overlaps several working hours with GMT for daily collaboration, and handles employment and compliance through its Employer of Record so there is no UK entity to set up.

08 Why us

Why London companies choose Pitch N Hire

Vetted talent, fast

A pre-screened India talent pool means matched shortlists in days, not the months a local permanent hire can take.

You stay in control

You interview and choose every person; Pitch N Hire surfaces qualified candidates and handles the operational load.

Compliance handled

Offshore hires are employed through PNH's India Employer of Record — payroll, tax and statutory compliance are taken care of.

Lower blended cost

Building part of your team offshore keeps comparable seniority on the roster at a lower total cost than local-only hiring.

Overlapping hours

Engineers work on overlapping working hours and inside your tools and sprints — collaboration, not black-box outsourcing.

One partner, many needs

Staffing, recruitment, EOR and the ATS/interview software come from one provider, so hiring stays joined-up as you scale.

FAQ

Recruitment Services (RPO) in London — FAQs

How do recruitment services speed up hiring in London?
Pitch N Hire runs sourcing, screening and structured interviews as a managed process for your London roles, surfacing vetted candidates faster and lifting shortlist quality — so your team spends time on final decisions rather than top-of-funnel work.
Can Pitch N Hire recruit for both local London roles and offshore teams?
Yes. PNH's recruitment services cover roles based in London as well as offshore hiring from India, and both run on its applicant-tracking and interview software so your pipeline and candidate quality stay consistent.
Is RPO cost-effective for a smaller London employer?
Yes. Instead of permanent in-house recruiters or high per-hire agency fees, a London employer can engage PNH's recruitment capacity only when needed, scaling it to hiring demand and keeping cost-per-hire predictable.
Do we keep control of hiring decisions?
Always. PNH manages the funnel and delivers a qualified, ranked shortlist, but your London team interviews and makes every final hiring decision — RPO extends your talent team, it doesn't replace your judgement.
How much does recruitment services (rpo) in London cost?
Cost depends on the roles, seniority and engagement length. Building capacity offshore from India through Pitch N Hire is typically a materially lower blended cost than hiring the same seniority locally in London, and PNH gives you a clear quote for your specific requirement — talk to the team for pricing.
How do I get started with recruitment services (rpo) for my London team?
Share your requirement with Pitch N Hire — the roles, skills and timeline. You'll get a matched shortlist or a tailored plan within days, interview and select the people yourself, and onboard them into your London team, with PNH handling employment and compliance.
Are the candidates vetted before they reach my London team?
Yes. Every candidate Pitch N Hire puts forward for a London company is pre-screened for skills, experience and communication, and assessed with structured interviews — so your shortlist is genuinely qualified and you keep the final hiring decision.
Can I hire a whole team or just one person in London?
Both. A London company can start with a single vetted specialist and scale to a full offshore pod as the roadmap grows, or stand up a whole team from day one. Pitch N Hire flexes capacity up or down with short notice, so you commit only to what you need right now.
How does time-zone collaboration work with an offshore London team?
Pitch N Hire structures offshore engagements around a daily working-hour overlap with your London team, plus clear async handoffs for the rest of the day. Engineers join your standups, tools and code review under your direction, so it feels like an extension of your team rather than a hand-off to a separate vendor.
What if an augmented London hire isn't the right fit?
You interview and approve every person, which keeps the fit-rate high — but if someone isn't working out, Pitch N Hire replaces them quickly from its vetted pool and manages the transition, so your London team's delivery keeps moving.
