Tampa, Fla., August 21, 2024 – Hudson RPO today announced that Everest Group has recognized the firm as a Major Contender in all regions and a Star Performer in EMEA and APAC in its Regional Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) PEAK Matrix® Assessment. The Star Performer designation is based on Hudson RPO’s significant Year over Year (YoY) movement up the Matrix.

The report cites several accomplishments in Hudson RPO’s offering that led to its elevated ranking, including its innovation, vision and strategy, depth of services, portfolio mix and value delivered.

The organization has also seen measurable global expansion with organic growth by setting up an entity in Ireland, inorganic growth with the acquisition of Hudson Singapore, and an increased presence in the Middle East.

“Hudson RPO has made concerted organic and inorganic investments to expand its global RPO footprint across most of the major RPO markets. Its expertise in hiring white-collar professionals across key industries, such as pharmaceutical and life sciences, BFSI, and manufacturing, have enabled Hudson RPO to demonstrate significant resilience in the downturn of 2023,” says Arkadev “Arko” Basak, Partner, Everest Group. “Its continued investments in advancing its talent advisory services and its partnership-based technology ecosystem have strengthened its position as a Major Contender and Star Performer on Everest Group’s Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2024.”

In addition, Hudson RPO has enhanced its offering with a dedicated Executive Search team and expanded advisory services.

“Our clients are increasingly looking to us for a full spectrum of talent acquisition and workforce planning needs,” said Hudson RPO CEO Jake Zabkowicz. “As we continue to expand and excel in the marketplace, we look forward to offering clients best-in-class results, including DEI, advisory, permanent and contingent workforce planning and technology consulting.”

For the RPO Services Regional PEAK Matrix®, Everest Group analyzes the RPO landscape and the performance of 53 service providers in all industries, looking at these providers’ vision for RPO, their capacity to deliver on that vision, the impact that they have had on the wider market, including the scope of services offered, and level of innovation and investments. The assessment also considers third-party RPO deals as well as 6,400 multi-process RPO deals. The report divides RPO providers into three main categories: Leaders, Major Contenders and Aspirants.
