Background
Lokalize is a fully remote SaaS vendor who sell a Translation management system for Large Enterprise. An ambitious company, motivated to evolve into a geographically diverse international organisation which has exceptional technology but is also an amazing place to work.
Introduced to Iperium via Creandum, Iperium were tasked with helping Lokalise to attract global talent and achieve their growth goals all over the world.
Introduced via Creandum, Lokalise approached Iperium as they wanted to expand their organisation outside of existing borders and diversify their teams. They wanted to grow, work and reach beyond their original location in North East Europe.
Getting a diverse workforce in place would allow Lokalise to grow revenue but also add an influx of creative input from all over the world with less focus on competing for local talent.
Introduced via their Venture Capital investor, Iperium were seen as a partner that had mastered remote hiring, building global teams, and working with the fast-growing demands of SaaS vendors.
By embedding Iperium team members using the talent.ai talent intelligence platform enabled Lokalise to scale at pace fully remote.
Working directly with Lokalise team members was centric to meeting combined goals, which included making significant improvements to the hiring process and the building of a competitive employer brand for Lokalise in the Technology market.
Diversity – Hires were made in 28 different countries spanning 3 continents
Growth – Over 75 hires onboarded including leadership, marketing and a world-class software development team of over 50 people built inside 12 months
Only Remote – A team from all over the world working together in a cohesive manner enabling organisational growth
Proving the success of the partnership has been secondary to cementing the kind of employer brand Lokalise set out to achieve when Iperium was initially engaged.
A company that is committed to building a fully remote hiring brand from scratch should always be prepared to evolve its process on the way to achieving its scale-up goals.
