Manpower Slovenia

What Manpower Slovenia does

Manpower Slovenija is the Slovenian operating entity within the ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) global staffing network, operating as part of the Manpower SEE (Southeast Europe) regional structure that spans nine countries: Slovenia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Hungary, Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Albania. The company has operated in Slovenia since 1992 and runs its regional headquarters from Ljubljana. It is a B2B human resources solutions provider serving enterprise and mid-market employers across all major industries, including manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, logistics, retail, energy, and IT.

The core offering is specialized recruitment and search-and-selection services segmented into four practices: executive profiles, IT profiles, professional and senior profiles, and production/logistics profiles. These are complemented by international mobility services (work and residence permits for foreign hires), HR outsourcing and payroll administration, market and salary research (the proprietary SATR salary and employment trends report covering 624 Slovenian companies in 2024), employer branding and job advertising, personnel development with psychometric testing, outplacement / career transition support, and a candidate talent database that feeds the recruitment pipeline. The underlying technology base is human expertise and established recruitment methodologies rather than a software platform.

The business model is professional services and managed services. Revenue is generated from employer clients via per-engagement search and selection fees, temporary staffing markups, direct placement fees, recurring HR outsourcing and payroll contracts, and paid market research reports. Go-to-market is direct B2B sales through recruitment consultants and HR advisors targeting corporate clients across industries and company sizes. Customer concentration is distributed across multiple named enterprise logos including Lek (Sandoz), Shell Adria, Decathlon, GKN, Winoa, DSV Transport, and Plastika Skaza, with at least one relationship exceeding ten years (DSV Transport).
