Singapore, 06 August 2009 – Alexander Mann Solutions (AMS) has been named as the Global Market Leader in the Baker’s Dozen 2009, an annual listing of the top recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) providers published by HRO Today, a leading Human Resources magazine read by over 70,000 HR executives and leaders worldwide. The win is further confirmation of AMS’s position as the world’s most geographically diverse provider of RPO services, and demonstrates the consistently high standards that AMS offers its clients in a global business environment.

The company has also been recognised as the leader in breadth of services, confirming its ability to act as a trusted advisor to its clients in all areas of recruitment and resourcing. Additionally, the company is the highest-ranked organisation active in Asia Pacific.

The listing is based upon a survey completed by existing buyers of RPO services and is recognised as the largest buyers’ survey covering the RPO Industry.

“Alexander Mann Solutions continues to reign as the world’s most geographically diverse provider of RPO services”, said Elliot Clark, CEO of HRO Today magazine. “They continue to lead in all categories while doing some of the largest, most complex engagements across multiple continents. AMS is the worldwide industry leader in breadth of service with services including resourcing and talent management. They also perform very complex engagements involving very hard to fill managerial and professional hiring as well as volume hiring engagements. They top the Global Providers list because they continue to set the global standard that other companies aspire to achieve.”

Rosaleen Blair, chief executive officer at AMS commented, “Everything we do is designed to help our clients build world-class talent functions, and this year’s listing confirms our commitment to this. Our culture of client focus and innovation encourages our teams to constantly challenge the norm to give our clients exactly what they need. We are committed to growing our business, evolving our service offering, deepening relationships with our clients and continuing to set the standard for world-class resourcing solutions across multiple continents.”

AMS builds world-class talent functions for its clients that cover permanent, contingent, internal mobility, graduate and talent resourcing programmes. Having continually been at the forefront of the RPO industry, its services have evolved to provide clients with a range of innovative, tailored and high-value professional services for every stage of the resourcing cycle – from assessment, selection and employer branding to business intelligence and executive hiring. It also offers an instant RPO solution, AMS OnDemand, designed for organisations that want the advantages of a world-class recruitment function but don’t have the resources or recruitment volumes.

The RPO Bakers Dozen ranking is published annually by HRO Today magazine. The ranking is based upon a survey completed by 378 HR executives who are current buyers of RPO services. The listing aims to highlight the key firms as well as the progression of recruitment process outsourcing. In the current economic climate, high-quality staffing has been significant to survival, which further provides a place for outsourced teams and RPO companies.
