Human Resource as a Service

Human Resources as a Service

The Capability We Build

Certified professionals across every domain we practise in, engaged on whichever model fits the work rather than whichever one fits a contract.

Certified Engineers, Every Domain We Practise

The same people who deliver our own cybersecurity, development and infrastructure engagements — CISSP, OSCP, GIAC, CISM and the rest, plus architects, database engineers, QA specialists, designers and project managers. We do not resource domains we do not work in ourselves.

Four Ways to Engage

Dedicated resource, shared resource, project-based teams or retainer-based access. The right one depends on whether the work is continuous, occasional, bounded or unpredictable — and you can run more than one model at once across different parts of the business.

Every certification our resources hold is published in full, so you can check before you commit. Check the certification list

Engagement Models

Four Ways to Bring Us In

Thirty-three resource profiles across four engagement models. Everything below is on the page whether or not scripting is available — the tabs only choose which model is in view.

Dedicated Resource

A named engineer, or a team of them, working only on your work and embedded in your organisation. You direct them day to day; we carry the employment, the certification and the cover when someone is away.
