The challenge
The company underwent rapid growth, resulting in numerous changes within the people and HR team. However, there was no dedicated talent function or resource in place to manage this growth effectively.
Additionally, the company faced challenges related to prolonged timelines for extending job offers, which needed to be addressed.
Troi’s Previous Engagement: Troi had previously collaborated with Yoto for several months through our agency arm, Troi Search placing 2 technical professionals on a success basis…and they LOVED our way of working.

The results

The successful partnership with Yoto continues.
Working with Troi & Edge1 has been a pleasure so far. The team is fun, down-to-earth, and knowledgeable. They really get under the skin of our briefs and turned tough to fill vacancies round from brief to offer stage in half the time it was taking before. They genuinely just want the best for business and candidate. It doesn’t feel like you are working with a recruiter when working with Troi & Edge1, they just feel like an extension of our team. We’d have no hesitation in engaging them on future spikes in recruitment.
