A key player in the booming digital HR tech field, StaffCircle has recently onboarded a breadth of new customers across sectors including NHS, technology and manufacturing due to its multichannel communication capability which can reach key remote and frontline workers.

With 87% of these customers joining the cloud-based performance management platform in the last six months alone, CEO Mark Seemann attributes this to the rising demand in solutions that can meet the needs of long-term remote workforces.

StaffCircle has also been recognised by Microsoft Transact as a standout UK startup and included in the Microsoft for Startups program.

• 'Today' Screen - Instant birds eye view of teams or departments. Everything from real-time objective performance to who is on holiday.

• Competency Framework - See how organisational values translate into individual behaviours and how employees exhibit these.

• 360 Reviews – The platform is adaptable to mirror any type of performance management system, however the 360 feature is an objective way to gain feedback from many different angles.
• Real-time communication feeds – internal sharing in the familiar style of social media networks to build company culture. Like, comment and share - Increase employee engagement.
Successful serial entrepreneur and founder of StaffCircle, Mark Seemann is committed to investing in the platform and providing a 360 solution for its users. He explains, “Times are changing and there couldn’t be a better time to respond to employee needs in the new, normal way of working. This, along with the shift in HR priorities perfectly positions us to be a player in the market. With our new Microsoft integration, we can easily slot into existing ways of working and offer a 360 solution for HR.

We work in an agile way that allows us to respond and adapt quickly – something we are seeing increase as the requirements for businesses changes in the current climate. But one thing that remains is that employers want employees to remain connected.”
