Context

After receiving significant pre-seed investment, the organisation needed to accelerate development of new products. Local hiring was expensive and slow, so they sought a cost-effective alternative that would allow internal teams to focus on strategic priorities.

Challenge

The business required fast access to high-quality software expertise at a much lower cost than typical UK rates. They also needed a partner who could deliver at speed to maintain early-stage momentum.

Solution

The Europe team provided nearshore SME resources at 40% lower cost than equivalent UK talent. Within 48 hours of the discovery call, three highly skilled profiles were presented, and the selected candidate was hired within a week. 

This approach enabled the client to advance product development while still investing in core UK permanent hires.

Results

The rapid deployment of SMEs allowed the organisation to accelerate builds and improve speed to market. 

  • Profiles delivered within 48 hours, with a successful hire in one week 
  • Cost-effective model extended to further product development work 
  • Continued partnership due to high quality and delivery speed 

We are ready to help you scale specialist nearshore capability while protecting your budget.
