SparkLayer x Redeployable: Ex-military in the Saas Industry

SparkLayer is an eCommerce platform that gives retailers the tools they need to rapidly grow their B2B eCommerce operation. 

By seamlessly integrating with their existing online store, SparkLayer becomes a self-service B2B portal for hassle-free transactions. It’s a hugely flexible tool that means businesses don’t have to put up with clunky manual processes, enabling them to increase sales and grow more efficiently

Why a did they want a veteran? 

They came to us because they needed a new team member to expand their sales function.

“Redeployable were fantastic, they helped us find us the perfect candidates” - Chris Mattingly Co-founder & CEO, SparkLayer

Personal values were a big part of their criteria, so it was important that they hired an individual with a strong work ethic, who was both reliable and adaptable. They needed to have the ability to work effectively under pressure, to have unwavering dedication, and top-notch problem solving skills. Sounds like a veteran to us. 

Aware of the value that military experience gives a candidate, SparkLayer wanted a veteran or service leaver who would be the perfect fit for the companies’ growth plans. 

Ideal match = ✅ 

Redeployable matched SparkLayer with the perfect candidate: Kaleigh Lewis.

“Redeployable also offered mentoring and support for her which was unlike anything else we had seen from other recruitment companies”

Entering the company in a Sales & Partnerships role, Kaleigh’s experience in the British Army as Royal Military Police meant she could hit the ground running in the role. Her ability to work well in a high-pressure, ever changing environment meant that she made an impact almost instantly. Plus, her strong communication skills were able to lend themselves to a sales role. 

Next steps?

We’re in it for the long run, SparkLayer and Redeployable will continue to work together to position top-quality candidates like Kaleigh in roles at the company. 

It’s a fast growing company at the top of its game, so we’re excited that Redeployable can help to drive the company forward.
