Contingent Workforce

The world is changing fast. So is talent.

Experienced business leaders know it takes more than one type of talent to get the job done. The best candidates aren’t always permanent workers. To fill skills gaps you need to meet talent where they are – and increasingly more standout contributors are contingent.

That’s where Cielo comes in.

Expanded workforce, expanded potential

Increased competition and shifting talent motivations make workforce management challenging. Our Contingent Workforce solutions will change that.

A single view of human talent

Talent is changing where and how they work – from the digital nomad lifestyle to freelance and more. Keeping up with hiring demands means removing the divide between permanent, contingent and digital employees to find the right candidates with the right skills at the right time.

Risk management at its best

A broader talent pool gives you the flexibility and security needed to evolve with the market. Whether it’s a short-term project or a need for specialized skillsets, you’re never limited by what full-time contributors can offer. Wherever you go, there’s talent to follow.

Fueling the future

With a strong contingent workforce that’s fully immersed in your team, deep expertise and diverse experience are at your fingertips. Building a mutually beneficial relationship will drive value for all and ensure you’re equipped for the rush of innovative technology that’s always on the horizon.

We're frequently asked...

Contingent workers are contracted on a temporary basis to provide specific expertise in a role or for a project, usually for a defined length of time. But the way they're viewed is changing. Despite being a short-term part of the team, contingent workers can highly elevate business results, providing innovative solutions and even stepping in for high-level executive roles.

Workforce ecosystems are becoming more complex as talent designs new ways of working. Turnover is increasing, candidates’ personal requirements are growing, and there’s a lack of available talent due to stronger competition. A contingent workforce can fill talent gaps and unlock access to highly specialized, niche skills – especially in a future where hiring is becoming more and more skills based. Our total talent solutions connect humans to fitting roles while creating value for your company and clients.

Other benefits include:

  • More flexibility
  • Cost savings
  • Faster access to skills
  • Robust talent pool
  • Better security

Although employment status and benefits may differ, the way permanent and contingent workers are recruited shouldn’t. In today’s hiring landscape, candidates may be solely full-time, primarily freelance, or a combination of both – the way we work is constantly being redefined. Every potential employee deserves the same attention and respect. With Cielo’s Contingent Workforce solutions and total talent approach, we ensure that’s the case.

Talent across the world is reevaluating how they prefer to work. Autonomy and flexibility are at the top of the list for many workers, and deciding when and how they work is becoming a priority. Those with highly specialized skills that are in great demand, such as tech, know their talents are at a premium. It’s expected that the ever-increasing percentage of contingent workers in the market will only continue to grow.

MSPs aren’t the strategic providers of the past – they're now purely administrative. And with the lack of in-depth talent industry expertise and technology, MSPs may soon become redundant. Our unique view of talent gives us the insight needed to know exactly what candidates want in a contingent employer, no matter the industry or location. We partner with you to align with your goals, needs and brand to ensure your values are fully reflected throughout the recruitment process. We’ll focus on what specific roles you need filled and target the associated skills without singling out employment type. With our total talent solutions, you’ll achieve significant business results with best-fit talent, better internal mobility and more effective workforce management.
