Recruitment as a Service

Sybrandsplace wanted to set up B2B e-commerce properly, but had no team for it yet. Between 2016 and 2018 we built that department from the ground up, role by role.

The assignment: build a complete e-commerce team

  • Backend developers
  • Frontend developers
  • Product owner
  • Online marketeer
  • Scrum master
  • Integration specialists
  • App developer
  • UX/UI designers
  • Data analysts
  • Manager E-commerce Development

Our approach: step by step, from 2016 to 2018

  1. Phase 01

    Laying the foundation

    • Conversations with the board about what the department should do
    • The profile of the first core roles defined
    • Culture and ways of working mapped out
  2. Phase 02

    Recruiting the core team

    • The first backend and frontend developers
    • A product owner and an online marketeer
    • A working team for the rest to join
  3. Phase 03

    Building on and broadening

    • Added a scrum master, integration specialists, an app developer, UX/UI designers and data analysts
    • Finally the Manager E-commerce Development
    • Every role a fit with the people already there

The result

90%of the team is still there after six years
2years of building, from 2016 to 2018
