Omni Flex: Our Embedded Talent Solution

Recruitment expertise to flex with your business.

Omni Flex is Omni’s Embedded Talent Solution, giving organisations experienced recruitment capacity when they need it, for as long as they need it. Delivered behind your brand, it helps businesses respond to growth, investment, expansion, new teams and changing hiring demand without the commitment of additional permanent recruitment headcount or the cost of relying on agencies for every hire.

What is Embedded Talent?

Embedded Talent is an agile RPO recruitment solution that integrates seamlessly into your brand. A dedicated Recruitment Business Partner or team works as part of your business, behind your brand and alongside your hiring managers. They manage agreed vacancies, improve visibility of hiring activity and bring additional expertise without disrupting the way you work.

More than simply external recruitment support, our Embedded Talent Solution, Omni Flex, combines the flexibility of an embedded Recruitment Partner with the backing of Omni’s wider sourcing capability, recruitment technology, CRM, attraction expertise and specialist teams.

The result is greater hiring capacity, stronger market insight, clearer visibility and more consistent delivery from day one.

The step change required for growth

When hiring demand increases, internal teams can quickly become stretched. Omni Flex adds experienced, embedded recruitment capacity, structure and insight while directly sourcing the talent you need. Whether you are hiring for immediate demand or strengthening recruitment capability for future growth.

You’ll only pay for the support you need through a simple, flexible pricing model that fits your budget. 

Expert recruitment made more accessible at flexible pricing

Omni Flex is priced through a simple monthly service fee, tailored to your hiring requirements and the level of Recruitment Partner support needed. With no placement fees or per-hire charges, it offers a more predictable and cost-effective alternative to agency-led recruitment. In the right hiring scenario, Omni Flex can be up to 50% more cost-effective than an agency-led model*.

Hiring shouldn’t be all or nothing. Our Embedded Recruitment Solution provides recruitment expertise that flexes with your business, giving you the support you need, when you need it, without the commitment of additional permanent headcount.

From day one, your Recruitment Partner works as an extension of your team, backed by Omni’s wider sourcing capability, recruitment technology, CRM, attraction expertise and specialist teams. This gives you greater control over recruitment activity, clearer visibility of hiring pipelines and progress, and a more consistent experience for candidates and hiring managers. Beyond delivery, Omni Flex leaves a lasting legacy through stronger recruitment processes, improved market insight and practical best practice that continues to support your organisation long after the engagement ends.

The difference you can measure

Omni Flex is designed to improve the hiring outcomes that matter most; reducing agency dependency, improving visibility of hiring activity, strengthening candidate experience, increasing hiring manager confidence and creating more consistent recruitment processes.

Embedded Talent Solutions for scaling organisations

For most organisations, growth, investment, contract wins, expansion, new teams or a sudden spike in vacancies can quickly overwhelm HR teams and hiring managers. The pressure is real, but adding internal headcount before demand is clear and consistent can feel premature.

In the meantime, reliance on recruitment agencies can build quickly. What starts as a short term solution can become an expensive and fragmented model, with rising placement fees, inconsistent candidate experiences and limited visibility across the wider hiring picture.

This is where Omni’s Embedded Talent Solutions can make all the difference.

Why Omni Flex works for scaling organisations

  • 1
    No or limited in-house talent team

    You’re relying on hiring managers to juggle recruitment with their day job.

  • 2
    Inconsistent hiring processes

    Each role is a new challenge, leading to inefficiencies.

  • 3
    Scaling pains

    One month you need a surge in hiring; the next, things slow down.

  • 4
    Lack of access to talent insights

    Without expertise and relevant tech, it’s hard to know where to find and attract the best people.

Embedded Talent Solutions for organisations with existing talent teams

For organisations with established talent acquisition teams, an Embedded Talent Solution provides additional capacity, specialist expertise or interim support where it is needed most. Whether supporting a specific programme, covering a resource gap or helping manage increased hiring demand, Omni Flex integrates Recruitment Partners seamlessly into existing recruitment functions and begins delivering value from day one.

The commercial model remains the same: a simple monthly service fee rather than placement fees, giving organisations flexible recruitment support that can be deployed across multiple hiring priorities as needs evolve.
