Trenkwalder drives transformation into a modern workforce solutions provider

Vienna/Munich. The Trenkwalder Group is strategically realigning its business model. Guided by its vision “Let Europe work”, the company is evolving from a traditional staffing provider into a provider of modern workforce solutions. Trenkwalder combines more than 40 years of labour market expertise with digital technologies, data-driven processes and artificial intelligence to connect companies and talent faster, more precisely and across Europe.

“The labour market is undergoing fundamental change. Today, companies need far more than support in filling individual vacancies. They need solutions that intelligently connect people, processes and technology,” says Mark Pollok, CEO of the Trenkwalder Group.

With this strategic realignment, Trenkwalder is responding to the growing complexity of the labour market. Skills shortages, demographic change and increasing demands for flexibility are presenting companies throughout Europe with new challenges. At the same time, modern technologies are creating new opportunities to identify workforce needs earlier, manage processes more efficiently and connect talent more effectively with the right opportunities.

Trenkwalder’s strategic vision extends beyond traditional staffing services. With “Let Europe work”, the company is developing a pan-European workforce platform that intelligently connects talent, companies and labour markets. This enables skills to be made available faster, more precisely and across borders wherever they can create the greatest value.

Technology already plays a central role within the Group. Digital solutions, intelligent data models and AI-supported processes help accelerate decision-making, simplify workflows and continuously improve the quality of matching and workforce processes. The aim is to combine the strengths of human expertise with the capabilities of modern technology, creating tangible added value for clients and candidates alike.

With “Let Europe work”, Trenkwalder is systematically advancing this approach. The focus is on integrated workforce solutions that support companies across the full spectrum of their workforce and transformation challenges. Alongside recruitment and staffing services, data-driven workforce management, talent mobility, process optimisation and digital services are becoming increasingly important.

“Our industry is undergoing a transformation. Companies’ expectations are changing, as are the opportunities that technology provides today,” Pollok explains. “That is why we are investing strategically in innovation, digitalisation and artificial intelligence—not to replace people, but to enhance the impact of our expertise and offer our clients even better solutions.”

With a network spanning 15 countries, around 200 locations and more than 40 years of experience, Trenkwalder combines local labour market expertise with pan-European reach. This combination provides the foundation for supporting companies comprehensively in attracting, deploying and developing talent—and for actively shaping the future of work.

“Let Europe work reflects our ambition to connect work, talent and companies more effectively,” says Pollok. “We want to harness the potential of technology to build connections, accelerate processes and bring people and companies together even more successfully. We see this as our contribution to the world of work of tomorrow.”
