Orienta

What Orienta does

Orienta S.p.A. is an Italian private employment agency (Agenzia per il Lavoro) founded in 1993 that provides temporary staffing, permanent placement, outsourcing, training, and specialist recruitment services. It operates more than 75 branches across Italy and wholly owned subsidiaries in Poland (since 2015), Switzerland and the Czech Republic (since 2021), and Hungary (since 2024), giving it a five-country European footprint. The group is organized into dedicated verticals — including HealthCare, Digital, Family, Tech, Professionals, Public Administration, EXEOR (BPO/Direct), Le Cicogne, MyOurJob, Globl, and the Orienta Academy — which route specialized recruiters and process tooling toward distinct customer segments. Revenue is generated through standard staffing-industry mechanics: placement fees, temporary-staffing markups, BPO service contracts, training revenue, and cross-border candidate sourcing via the EUROTEMPS network of 340+ European agencies.

The company applies AI in targeted parts of the workflow: NLP-based CV scoring, automated candidate-to-job matching, and AI-supported management systems in the HealthCare vertical. Operationally, Orienta holds Italian ministerial authorization as a licensed employment agency, equivalent licenses in each country of operation, Società Benefit status (since 2021), and a stack of certifications including Gender Equality, Dyslexia Friendly, and ELITE listing; it has also received five consecutive UNHCR awards for refugee integration into work. M&A activity is part of the growth model: Fledro (German-speaking Switzerland, 2024) and Abile Job (disability employment) extend the geographic and vertical reach. The company is privately held, with leadership including Marco Vigini as Director of Welfare Services and Vice President of AIDP, the Italian personnel management association.
