The Swedish market is rather peculiar with summertime being a period when the vast majority of staff takes leave, despite the need for some highly strategic activities to continue. In this context, the organisation went on the lookout for outsourcing agencies and other forms of support that could provide them with the capacity necessary to avoid operational disruptions during that season.
Besides some web searches, they also asked their auditors for recommendations on companies that provide such services. They stated that some of their other clients were using Klara Consulting, so they were a natural choice.
Their support request was structured quite clearly within the framing mentioned before: searching for additional outsourced (i.e. hired directly by Klara Consulting) capacity to cover their accounts payable and accounting functions during the summertime.
The cooperation between the parties has been ongoing since 2021 and the results have exceeded expectations.
– The Klara Consulting team is always very responsive and thorough. Compared to other outsourcing and recruitment services I have used in other countries and organisations, Klara Consulting has impressed me with how much effort they put into understanding our business model and our working environment. They really live and walk-the-talk in the concept of “business partner” – says the Technology & Finance Director of the organisation.
When the organisation tried to recruit a temporary accountant last spring, the first candidate they had selected took a different job but Klara Consulting continued the search with a solution-oriented attitude.
– Klara Consulting has always been persistent when things don’t go right at the first attempt – says the Technology & Finance Director.
In short, the organisation has been able to secure this temporary additional capacity over the past two summers, which has allowed them to eliminate disruptions and ensure the satisfaction of their ”internal customers”. In addition, they have been able to approve their permanent staff’s holiday plans without any hesitation and without having to draw up complicated plans to cover them.
– I certainly foresee the collaboration ongoing, and for the above reasons I would recommend other organisations to hire Klara Consulting for their relevant staffing needs – says the Technology & Finance Director.
