Spotted Zebra Raises £7.7M in Series A Funding

Spotted Zebra

Spotted Zebra, a London, UK-based HR tech company, raised £7.7M in Series A funding.

The round was led by Nauta Capital with participation from Act VC, as well as existing investors Playfair Capital and Entrepreneur First.

The company intends to use the funds to scale its platform to different fields and markets, hire new talent and expand its product suite.

Led by CEO Ian Monk, Spotted Zebra empowers organisations to make decisions throughout the entire talent lifecycle – from hiring to reskilling to succession planning. Its workforce management platform features three applications – the hiring application for recruitment; the mobility application for reskilling; and the development application for succession planning.

The system combines AI, assessment science and human expertise to allow organisations to determine the precise blend of skills required for individual roles and then identify people with those skills. This widens the available talent pool while ensuring that successful candidates deliver higher job performance than via traditional recruitment channels. The solution also helps organisations improve their reskilling programmes by matching vacant roles with employees whose jobs are being downsized.

Founded in 2020, Spotted Zebra counts a number of FTSE100 companies amongst its list of clients.
