West Midlands Talent Acquisition (WMTA) Case Study: Hereford Worcester Fire and Rescue Service
Hereford & Worcester Fire and Rescue Service is transforming how it attracts and recruits talent. Built on a culture of safety, wellbeing and inclusion, the Service joined the West Midlands Talent Acquisition service in 2024 to modernise its e-recruitment approach. Through a focused eight-week rollout with WME and Tribepad, HWFRS streamlined processes, empowered hiring managers and enhanced the candidate journey. The impact has been clear, with more than 600 applications for its latest firefighter campaign. Now, the Service is building on this momentum, embedding digital onboarding, strengthening insight through data, and creating a seamless, inclusive end-to-end recruitment experience.
