Proven Outcomes

Results That Speak

Real outcomes from clients who used Aurrum Talent Mapping as the foundation for their search.

60%

Reduction in Time-to-Hire

A technology client reduced their average time-to-hire for senior software engineers from 11 weeks to under 5 weeks after implementing a talent mapping foundation across three markets.

180+

Named Candidates Identified

For a healthcare organisation entering the Australian market, we identified 180+ named candidates matching their specialist nursing leadership profile — before they'd opened their first office.

22%

Salary Adjustment Avoided

A financial services client was budgeting 22% below market rate. Our salary benchmarking data allowed them to adjust before going live — preventing a failed search and reputational damage with candidates.

4/6

C-Suite Roles Filled From Map

A scale-up in the UK used talent mapping for all six C-suite hires over 18 months. Four of the six final hires came directly from the mapped candidate longlists — zero agency fees on those placements.

Aurrum's talent mapping completely changed how we approach hiring. Instead of reacting to vacancies, we now have a living pipeline of pre-identified candidates across all our key roles. When our CTO left unexpectedly, we had names to call the same week. We made an offer within 18 days — our fastest senior hire ever.
