Executive summary
After Pinpoint was implemented in the UK at Davies Group, Liz Mellor, Talent Acquisition Lead for North America, led the rollout across North America. The team now uses Pinpoint to support hiring across a wide range of roles, from high-volume operational positions to confidential executive searches. With Pinpoint, Liz and her team improved visibility through automated reporting, strengthened recruiter accountability, and kept all candidate communication in one place. Pinpoint also integrates with ADP, Davies Group's HR system, creating a clear handoff from hiring into onboarding and payroll.

Use Case
1
Giving TA leaders visibility and control across hiring activity
The challenge
Leading Talent Acquisition for North America means balancing visibility, accountability, and candidate experience across a wide range of roles. Liz needed a clear way to understand what was happening across open roles and pipelines, without relying on manual trackers or constant follow-ups. Just as importantly, she wanted to ensure candidates didn't sit untouched in the process due to delays outside of recruiting's control.
The solution
Using Pinpoint's Reporting feature, Liz built a set of automated reports sent to the business throughout the week that cover requisition status, open roles, and recent hires. Liz also used the Pinpoint Scorecards feature to focus in on how quickly candidates move through each stage, giving clear insight into pipeline progress and helping the team act faster when bottlenecks appeared.

Use Case
2
Supporting multiple hiring streams in one ATS
The challenge
The North America team hires across very different roles and seniority levels, from high-volume operational positions to confidential executive searches. Managing these different hiring motions typically requires separate tools or workarounds, making it harder to stay consistent and efficient.
The solution
Pinpoint enables the team to support multiple hiring approaches within one system. Recruiters use built-in email, text, and interview templates to manage day-to-day hiring and create a more consistent experience for candidates and hiring managers. For executive roles, Liz uses Pinpoint's confidential features to run discreet searches and share direct application links, while recruiters can easily use the LinkedIn Recruiter integration to promote roles.
