CEO Today Global Awards 2020 59 UNITED KINGDOM History Neuven Solutions Limited are a market leading Neutral Vendor operating within the recruitment sector. The company has experienced unprecedented growth since John Simmonds joined as CEO in 2010 and subsequently bought the company in early 2012. By working alongside a hiring organisation and its supplier recruitment agencies, Neuven move clients away from the more restrictive and out-dated direct engagement and master vendor arrangements and guide them into a mutually beneficial, transparent neutral vendor model. Now boasting turnover in excess of £350 million, Neuven proudly displays an exceptional customer retention rate. Neuven partners with some of the largest companies in the UK and across Europe operating in the temporary labour and direct locum staffing market. Neuven combines the use of leading-edge technology with high levels of customer service to reduce the cost of procuring labour, whilst vastly improving the supply quality. Due to a customer focused approach, Neuven have quickly grown into an industry leading provider in compliance, auditing, training and neutral vending solutions, working with numerous public and private companies across all industry sectors. Our competitive advantage is driven from a focus on Neutrality, transparency, customer service and client satisfaction. We are solely a neutral vendor and are not conflicted by offering ancillary services which compromise neutrality, such as payroll management or preferential agency services. Client responses to satisfaction surveys suggest Neuven’s solution is found to be more user friendly than other neutral vendors on the market. With our transparent, tri-partite agreement, agencies are more open to engage with Neuven, allowing for total continuity when choosing Neuven and with no disruption to client services. Neuven’s compliance audits were established in October 2010, with the focus of protecting clients, through robust audit processes and a stringent 50-point audit criteria.
