About
La Fosse has been a trusted partner of Moneycorp for several years. As they looked to build a new product, Moneycorp turned to us to establish both short and long-term capability to deliver this next chapter in their business success.
The challenge
Having historically relied on third party engagements during specific project cycles, Moneycorp had experienced resource predictability issues caused by service disruptions and delays, senior hires tied up with BAU and resource management rather than strategic initiatives, and a loss of IP once projects were delivered.
The solution
Utilising our “Blended Teams” approach, we embedded a 20-person team of subject matter experts and La Fosse Academy Associates to provide both specialist knowledge and immediate capacity. Working alongside each other, the SMEs were able to handle complex assignments and strategic priorities, whilst Associates addressed BAU and fundamental tasks. This approach improved project efficiency and allowed for better utilisation of talent.
The SMEs also helped to develop the Associates, working together to mentor and upskill them through consistent, specialist support. This accelerated their skill progression and technical comprehension, transferred knowledge, and built a lasting understanding of Moneycorp’s infrastructure to ensure future expertise.
The result
In line with Moneycorp’s commitment to DEI, the team was 45% female, creating a more diverse and dynamic talent pipeline for the organisation. At the end of the project sprint, the SMEs roll off and Academy Associates convert to permanent Moneycorp employees, retaining IP, ensuring continuity of knowledge and tech capability, and following a clear exit strategy established from day one.
Our Associates will continue to provide technical expertise, growing and evolving Moneycorp’s new service line and sharing knowledge as the team scales to accommodate future development.
