Budget Staffing: saving you time and money

Budget Staffing Case Study

Senior Project Director


A leading market research supplier sought to fill a Senior Project Director position on an accelerated timetable. While the firm typically did not engage recruiters, they reached out to Reeve & Associates based upon their industry reputation and past positive experiences.

While discussing the position, Phil Reeve shared the cost, speed and flexibility benefits associated with a new service named Budget Staffing.

Given our Budget Staffing process is identical to a contingency engagement and it quickly delivers quality candidates at a fraction of the typical fee, the supplier trusted Phil and signed on.

"We couldn’t be happier, and we definitely plan to use our Budget Staffing in the future for most if not all of our needs."

— Director of Human Resources

Within four business days, Reeve & Associates targeted and contacted 116 highly qualified professionals. During the next two weeks, four candidates were presented, interviews were conducted and an extended offer was accepted.

“We were exceptionally satisfied with the quality of the delivered candidates,” said the Director of Human Resources.

Despite expecting a two-month process, an offer was accepted in just one month resulting in a $4,750 staffing fee compared to $18,400 under a typical 20% contingency model.

“I was initially concerned the process might be elongated, but Reeve & Associates delivered even faster than they promised,” said the company’s Chief Financial Officer.

Our Budget Staffing engagement was so successful the supplier even hired a second, more senior research professional—paying a fee of only $5,750 compared to $24,000 under a typical contingency-based approach.
