Whether you are a large organisation looking to diversify your talent pool or prepare for known absences or you are a smaller business looking to build on a tight budget, OnSecondment can help you fill your skills gaps.

You can also advertise your existing staff for secondment opportunities, developing their skillset, making the most of their existing skills and further operationalising your own business.

Empowering Businesses Through Better Networking

Imagine being able to source secondees more easily, resolving recruitment issues by selecting employed staff with the skills and expertise you need to complete short and medium-term projects. As the seconding company retains the employment status of the secondee you can save time and money getting the right person to maximise your project success.

For example, maybe you are a business needing current theoretical knowledge that academic staff in universities and colleges could provide or you need to avoid changes in recent employment laws but still require projects to be completed by skilled staff.

Secondments have major positive benefits for the host, seconding organisation and the secondee: 

"I have thoroughly enjoyed being able to complete a secondment, It has been integral for my career development, collaboration with clients and making me a more confident professional. I even got a career promotion following the completion of the opportunity, allowing me to utilise my skills I have learnt from this experience on a daily basis"
