In this episode of Talking Talent, we talk about Managed Service Providers or MSPs.
An MSP is a contingent workforce management solution managed by an external organization that combines process, personal expertise and technology to support an organization’s gig, temporary, temp-to-hire, direct hire, independent contractor administration, Statement of Work hiring and other complex services such as vendor management.
There is a spectrum of organizations seeking MSP services – some are looking for the first time, others have mature programs focused on driving continuous improvements and others that are transitioning into a Total Workforce Solution. In this episode, we dig into the issues affecting MSP programs at all maturity levels.
Joining us is Jen Torres, Senior Vice President of Client Delivery at PeopleScout. Jen has more than 12 years’ experience as a partner to Fortune 100 companies seeking MSP solutions.
