What manpower italia does

Manpower Italia is the Italian operating arm of ManpowerGroup Inc., a U.S.-listed workforce-solutions group, and consists of wholly owned Italian subsidiaries including Manpower S.r.l., Experis S.r.l., Talent Solutions S.r.l., Manpower TBO S.r.l., and ManpowerGroup Service S.r.l. It serves enterprise companies and SMBs with temporary and permanent staffing, recruitment and assessment, executive search, IT and professional consulting, training, outplacement, welfare, and broader talent and workforce management; it also serves job seekers and candidates through branches and online portals. Its main brands align those services to general staffing, technology talent, human-capital transformation, and senior leadership recruitment.

Commercial delivery combines branch-based account teams and HR consultants with digital self-service. Temporary staffing is generally transaction-priced with a markup on worker pay, permanent placement is typically a fee per successful hire, and consulting, executive search, training, and outplacement are quoted per engagement. AI is used as a text-based support layer to evaluate candidate backgrounds and experience, process CVs and job descriptions, preselect and match candidates, and provide guidance, with human oversight for significant or legally consequential decisions. The company also operates portals for application and profile management and digital worker administration, and publishes labor-market research used in enterprise thought leadership.
