Rota operates an on-demand staffing platform serving over 1,000 registered enterprise clients using proprietary, algorithm- and machine learning-driven matching. The company provides vetted, compliant and highly engaged candidates who can be matched and accepted onto shifts within seconds. Led by CEO Stephen Segel, Rota’s technology was developed from several years of experience servicing enterprise clients and flexible staffing needs. The company closed a £3M funding round to support its financial position and growth plans. Proceeds are intended to increase revenue and client expansions and to further enhance its technology. Rota also plans to move into additional flexible staffing verticals in 2020. Rota provides a tech-focused app to supply high-quality staff to hotels, caterers, restaurants, venues, events and stadia. Launched in 2015 by Tom Williams and led by CEO Stephen Segel, the company operates in London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Rota now has over 5,000 active members and supplies staff to partners including Intercontinental Hotels, Compass Group, Manchester Arena and Hearts Football Club. The company plans to use new funding to expand its UK presence and extend its service offering while advancing its current technologies. A key focus is developing market-shifting features to improve its ability to fill large numbers of shifts with high-quality staff. The business positions itself as a tech-first staffing solution for leading venues across major UK cities.
