Why Redeployable?
So when Shipster came to us needing a Software Implementation Consultant, we knew we’d be able to match them with the perfect candidate. They need someone with cool confidence. Someone resilient, with excellent client-facing skills and top-notch leadership ability.
In our opinion, it had to be a military candidate.
Redeployable matched Shipster with Kyle Lawton. An ex-Petty Officer, serving as an Aircraft Engineer Technician in the Royal Navy. He came straight out of the military and into the role at Shipster.
The result? 💯
A massive hit. Kyle has proven himself to be an asset to Shipster, making an excellent impression on clients and effortlessly managing many stakeholders through complex projects. But don’t just take our word for it:
“Kyle’s military background has armed him with a distinctive blend of leadership, adaptability, discipline, teamwork, problem-solving, and other skills that can contribute significantly to his role in our business. His proven ability to remain calm and focused where there are many moving parts within a project is invaluable, particularly in high-pressure situations that bubble up during large warehouse software transitions. His adaptability, resilience, and exceptional stress management not only facilitate seamless operations but also instil confidence in our clients during these critical periods.” - Hayley Cowburn, Shipster Co-Founder.
He stands out for his faultless communication style, which keeps the ball rolling and ensures all team members are on the same page.
Describing Kyle as an ‘invaluable’ member of the team, it’s no surprise that we’re going to continue working with Shipster
Another ex-military candidate proves that their experience is a competitive advantage.
