Trusted Since Day One

The managed service partner trusted by Multi-Academy Trusts since the framework began.

For Multi-Academy Trusts, choosing a managed service partner is about more than selecting a supplier from a framework. It is about choosing a partner with the experience, infrastructure and proven track record to deliver at scale.

Affinity Workforce has been part of the Lot 2 managed service framework since its inception and is one of only four providers to have maintained its position throughout every iteration of the framework.

Customer Spotlight

From 13 Agencies to One Strategic Partner

When Gosforth Group wanted greater control over temporary staffing, it moved from working with 13 separate agencies to a fully managed service model with Affinity Workforce.

The result was greater transparency, improved governance, streamlined processes and more effective management of supply staffing across the Trust.

Real Results. Real Savings.
