About Pensar Infrastructure and Their Challenges

Pensar Infrastructure recruits a broad range of roles, as their team is a mix of people who deliver work on site (like civil, mechanical, electrical and design engineers, as well as estimators, and project and construction managers), and office based roles (like accountants, account managers, and safety officers). Without any one of their roles filled, the whole operation falls down. While they employ over 200 people today, they started as a one man band operating out of a spare room. In the early days of growth, it quickly became apparent that there was a critical need for recruitment support to help them build a robust team that would drive the company forward.

“Our people are at the heart of everything that we do at Pensar. We believe that maintaining a healthy and happy team is key to creating better outcomes in our work.”
– Karl Yunker, Managing Director, Pensar Infrastructure

The Employer Branding Service allowed Pensar Infrastructure to distinguish themselves as an employer of choice, ultimately reducing time and cost per hire. Scout Talent’s Employer Branding Specialist took the below approach:

Facilitation of Focus Groups with a select group of employees to gather more data

Analysis and interpretation of findings from the EES and Focus Groups

Crafting of Pensar Infrastructure’s Employee Value Proposition (EVP) including key pillars, their EVP statement, and messaging

Facilitation of a workshop with the Pensar Infrastructure project team to present the findings, review themes, and establish core messaging

Creation of an Employer Branding video that highlights Pensar Infrastructure's Employee Value Proposition to prospective employees

– Karl Yunker, Managing Director, Pensar Infrastructure

The Outcome

“Scout is more than just a tech solution. It is a critical piece in the Recruitment Infrastructure.”
– Karl Yunker, Managing Director, Pensar Infrastructure

Pensar Infrastructure’s partnership with Scout Talent has been transformative. Scout Talent has helped Pensar Infrastructure to fill vacancies that are critical to keeping their operations live. The approach is not just about filling positions, but enriching Pensar Infrastructure’s company culture and enhancing their customer experience through exceptional people. The process has allowed Pensar Construction to gain full visibility, choice, and control of their talent pool (unlike traditional recruitment agencies), and has supported them in increasing their reach, and providing the highest standard of candidate care.

With a refreshed Employee Value Proposition, Pensar Infrastructure can clearly communicate to candidates what they offer as an Employer, and attract candidates who will thrive in their high performance culture. By presenting themselves as an employer of choice, they have reduced their time and cost to hire, and have increased applications from top talent.
