Project Overview
Reed & Mackay, a global service leader for corporate travel and events, needed to scale up their software engineering capability with a view to delivering on key projects within their loyalty programme team. As part of the broader Navan Group of companies, Reed & Mackay set a high internal bar for technical talent which included the requirement for candidates to complete CoderPad testing.
They chose to partner with us on the strength of a three-year track record delivering for other teams across the group, and a pre-existing relationship with their CIO. We ran a focused campaign — culminating in 6 hires — targeting engineers with deep Java, AWS, and distributed systems experience, strong API design instincts, and a genuine appetite for solving complex architectural problems.
“We engaged with Stott and May to help us scale to deliver a major greenfield project where there was no room for compromise in terms of soft and technical skills. They quickly established an effective team and process, ensuring a consistent flow of profiles, interviews, coding assessments, and offers. It was clear they understood our requirements, and the process was smooth and efficient from presenting a high caliber of candidates through to seamless onboarding.”
