Hi there, pizza lovers and HR enthusiasts! Today, we’re dishing out a piping hot story about how GMZ helped Dominos Pizza Group cook up a storm in their talent kitchen. Grab a slice and let’s dive in!
The order: A talent strategy overhaul
Back in October 2023, Dominos called us up with a tall order: they needed a fresh take on their talent strategy. Like a perfectly balanced pizza, they were after that just-right mix of cost savings and hiring transformation. Challenge accepted!
Our special ingredient: The GMZ diagnostic
We kicked things off with our GMZ diagnostic – think of it as taste-testing every ingredient in Dominos’ talent pantry. We pored over two years of recruitment data, chatted with the head chefs (aka senior stakeholders), and even timed how long it took to ‘knead the dough’ (or in non-pizza speak, how long their daily operations took).
What did we find? A recipe for potential savings that would make any CFO’s mouth water – £3.9m in total, with £632k just in talent acquisition. Talk about finding some extra dough!
Cooking up a storm: Our 3-year menu for success
With our diagnostic complete, we whipped up a 3-year plan that was more packed than a stuffed crust pizza. We’re talking a new workforce planning recipe, a state-of-the-art operating model, and a Talent Acquisition Centre of Excellence that would make any HR professional drool.
Time to start baking!
Dominos loved our recipe so much, they asked us to help them start prepping in February 2024. We rolled up our sleeves and got to work:
- Preheating the oven with a new applicant tracking system
- Kneading out a comprehensive workforce plan
- And here’s the secret sauce – using our CultureTrak software to craft a mouthwatering employer brand and employee value proposition
The proof is in the pizza
Now, we know what you’re thinking – “Show me the results!” Well, in just five months, we’ve cooked up some pretty impressive stats:
- Sliced agency hires by a whopping 75%
- Beefed up direct hires by 50%
- And reduced temp-to-perm conversions by 42%
All this has resulted in a tasty £232k cost saving in just 6 months. And the best part? We’re on track to deliver over £400k by the time we’re done. Now that’s what we call a successful recipe!
The cherry on top
But wait, there’s more! With our proprietary CultureTrak software now in Dominos’ kitchen, they’re all set to keep serving up amazing talent experiences for years to come. It’s like upgrading from a regular pizza oven to one of those fancy smart ovens that knows exactly how to cook each pizza to perfection.
