Temporary & Contract Staffing

On-demand talent, ready when you need them.

Business doesn’t always follow a perfect hiring plan. Whether you’re covering a leave, scaling up for a project, or responding to an unexpected vacancy, having access to qualified, reliable short-term staff is crucial.

At Ingenious People, we provide Temporary & Contract Staffing solutions that give you flexibility without compromising on quality. We move fast, vet thoroughly, and stay accountable — so you can keep your business moving, even when things change.

Why Temporary & Contract Staffing?

Today’s workforce is more agile than ever. Hiring contractors and temps can help you:

✅ Scale your team fast
✅ Fill urgent or interim roles
✅ Bring in specialised expertise
✅ Avoid long-term headcount commitments
✅ Bridge the gap while hiring permanent staff
✅ Support seasonal, project-based, or unpredictable workloads

And when done right, contract staffing isn’t a quick fix — it’s a smart workforce strategy.

Our Recruitment Process

Every temporary or contract candidate goes through a proven screening process designed to ensure fast turnaround without compromising quality.

Here’s how we do it:

1. Role Briefing
We get clear on your business needs, culture, and expectations — including urgency, skill level, site access, shifts, and safety requirements.

2. Rapid Sourcing
We tap into our pre-screened talent pool and launch targeted sourcing through our database, referral network, and smart search tech.

3. Screening & Checks
We verify all candidates through:

• Resume & reference checks

• Right to work validation

• Industry-specific clearances (e.g. WWCC, police checks, white cards)

• Optional: skills testing and phone/video interviews

4. Placement & Onboarding
We coordinate time sheets, payroll setup, worksite expectations, and first-day readiness — so you don’t have to.

5. Ongoing Support
We stay in touch with both you and the candidate throughout the contract. If something’s not working, we fix it — fast.
