Train to Deploy (TTD)

Train to Deploy, also called hire-train-deploy, is a train-to-match model. We select candidates based on behaviour and values first, then reskill or upskill them in the technical areas your teams need, so you can reframe key talent shortages by building the talent you need rather than compete to buy it.

It usually comes down to a few signals: struggling to fill the same roles repeatedly, an ageing workforce, being priced out of the market, or needing to show measurable diversity impact. Read our 5 signs you need a Train to Deploy strategy guide to check where you stand.

Our team does the heavy lifting, handling recruitment, onboarding, training coordination, and ongoing support, while you keep full visibility and control. We act as the conduit between you and specialist training providers so learning maps to your day-to-day operations.

It is not a like-for-like comparison with contingent labour, and that is the point. Our indicative scenarios show meaningful savings per hire once mis-hire costs, hiring manager time, and internal training are factored in. Though every programme is priced around your actual needs.

Every programme is priced around your needs rather than a fixed rate card, but the value shows up in reduced mis-hire costs, lower hiring manager time, and stronger retention. See the ROI of building talent internally for a fuller breakdown.

Our behaviour-first approach to Train to Deploy opens the door to people with potential from adjacent sectors and under-represented groups. We call it “inclusion without limits”, because candidates are matched to your culture and developed for your roles; they are more likely to stay, improving retention and workforce stability.
