The Job to be done
In 2023, limehome aimed to hire 120 individuals. However, a restructuring within their talent team left them short on recruitment capacity. As limehome’s property count grew due to their success, there was an increasing need to bolster their operations department. To meet this need and tap into new international markets while expanding their national operations, limehome engaged pplwise.
The collaboration was so successful that limehome extended their partnership with pplwise into 2024, continuing to rely on their expertise to achieve hiring goals.
The Approach
A dedicated Talent Partner was tasked with filling roles within the Operations department. This partner collaborated closely with hiring managers and the people department to guarantee a seamless candidate experience, secure high-quality talents, and expedite bureaucratic procedures, ensuring quick commencements.

Over 10.5 months (September 2023 to October 2024), pplwise delivered impactful outcomes:
- Roles Managed: 31 positions within Operations.
- Recruitment Support: 3 months with 1 full-time equivalent (FTE) Talent Partner and 7.5 months with 0.5 FTE.
- Candidate Engagement:
- 1,925 candidates sourced.

- 21 offers made, leading to 20 hires.
- During the 3 months with 1 FTE: 10 hires.
- During the 7.5 months with 0.5 FTE: 11 hires from 12 offers.
