FROM VENDOR TO STRATEGIC PARTNER: HOW RELADYNE BUILT A TALENT ENGINE WITH HIREWELL

What began as a support engagement quickly evolved into a trusted, organization-wide partnership. Hirewell’s ability to consistently deliver 100%-fit candidates faster than internal teams positioned us as Reladyne’s go-to talent partner.

Reladyne is a national distributor of lubricants, fuels, DEF, and reliability services to industrial, commercial, and automotive customers. As the company scaled through acquisition and organic growth, the need for a structured, strategic talent acquisition function became essential. That’s where Hirewell stepped in.

Requirements

Reladyne needed to shift from reactive recruiting to a proactive strategy that could support sustained growth. Specific needs included:

Stabilizing and centralizing recruiting operations post-acquisition
Developing repeatable hiring processes and playbooks
Improving time-to-fill and candidate quality for corporate and field roles
Adding recruiting bandwidth without expanding internal headcount
Building scalable, data-driven recruiting systems for long-term success

Approach

Hirewell embedded a dedicated Talent Consultant to partner closely with Reladyne’s HR and hiring leaders. This support delivered:

Full-cycle recruiting support across corporate and field roles

Weekly hiring updates with insights, metrics, and candidate flow

Playbooks for consistent hiring practices and onboarding

A proactive pipeline strategy for high-volume and hard-to-fill roles

Consulting on job descriptions, comp bands, and interview processes

Success Metrics

Speed matters. Quality matters more. Results matter most.
