Tailored training

We combine a powerful blend of learning methods to ensure our consultants are ready to contribute from day one. Our bespoke bootcamps range from one week to 12 weeks and are designed specifically to deliver the accredited technical skills and commercial capabilities you need, when you need them. 

Agile, empowered teams

By adding flexible resource to your teams, you’re recruiting new talent into the business, without putting pressure on your existing teams to coach or develop their skills. Meanwhile, you are freeing up more experienced employees to do higher value work.

Ongoing development

We support our consultants to grow with you throughout their assignment. Our career development framework provides coaching, mentoring and the chance to constantly upgrade and update their skills. After 24 months, you will recruit our consultants to be a permanent part of your team or the consultants will be redeployed with a new role or client.

FAQ's

    Industries that benefit from the Hire Train Deploy programme include technology, finance, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, government, and insurance. These sectors often face rapid technological changes and skills shortages, making the HTD model ideal for quickly building a skilled workforce in a cost-effective fashion. By focusing on capability over experience, these industries can address skills gaps, enhance diversity, and maintain competitiveness. The model is particularly effective for roles across business change, data & analytics, software engineering & cyber security.
  • Do you offer Hire Train Deploy services on a global scale?

    Our extensive network of clients, candidates, and consultants enables us to hire and deliver tailored HTD solutions across various regions and industries. We understand that each market has unique challenges and opportunities, so we customise our training programs to meet local needs while maintaining consistent quality and standards worldwide. By leveraging our global expertise, we help businesses recruit diverse talent pools, ensuring they have the skilled workforce needed to thrive in an ever-changing global economy.
  • How long is the training provided to consultants?

    Starting with an introductory training phase followed by 4 to 12 weeks of intensive skill development, the programmes emphasise both technical proficiency and essential soft skills, ensuring our consultants deliver business value from day one. 
  • Why engage with our HTD programme?

    This HTD model was born out of the frustration of working with traditional consultancies especially in regards to inflated project costs & knowledge leakage. The HTD programme addresses these common challenges by recruiting & developing high quality, diverse consultants and deploying them to organisations in a flexible, cost-effective and sustainable way. Organisations also have the option to permanently employ our consultants after their assignments. This ensures that we solve both short-term & long-term organisational challenges, whilst boosting diversity of thought across your workforce.
