AI is reshaping hiring. Make it inclusive.
Nestlé partnered with AMS to strengthen its global talent sourcing and pipeline strategy as part of a broader transformation in how the organisation attracts hard to find, specialist, and senior talent. With evolving skill requirements and increasing competition for scarce profiles, Nestlé required a more data led and proactive approach beyond traditional recruitment methods. AMS augmented Nestlé’s global sourcing capability with scalable expertise, advanced talent insights, and pipeline development across multiple regions, enabling faster access to high quality talent, improved diversity outcomes, and measurable cost avoidance while supporting strategic workforce planning at a global scale.
Nestlé is the world’s largest food and beverage company that puts people at the heart of everything it does. With 2,000+ brands, 280,000 employees and a presence in 186 countries worldwide, attracting talented and diverse individuals is a top priority. AMS has partnered with Nestlé since January 2020, providing Talent Sourcing, Pipelining and Insight services across Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia, Oceania, and Latin America.
With a rapidly evolving business, coupled with shifting market dynamics, the type of candidate profiles Nestlé recruited has changed significantly in recent years, meaning traditional methods of recruiting were no longer fit-for-purpose. As part of a global HR transformation, Nestlé created specialist “above market” talent sourcing and insights teams in three time zones, to support recruitment teams around the world for these hard to find profiles.
Nestlé looked to AMS to supplement these teams with specialist sourcing capability to bring expertise, flexibility and scale. The aim was to work on and develop pipelines for specialist, technical and senior roles, searching for candidates who do not typically apply directly. Nestlé challenged AMS to bring data-driven insights to this process, leveraging best-in-class technology to support sourcing activities, and inform strategies.
Augmenting Nestlé’s Sourcing Centre of Competence, AMS provides Nestlé with resources and services which are flexible and scalable, enabled by AMS’ global client service centres.
The service went live in early 2020. Key achievements already delivered:
