How Neoma builds tech talent pipelines.

For your existing team

Reskilling

We identify employees whose roles are evolving and build a structured pathway into tech. They keep their context, institutional knowledge, and relationships.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Workforce assessment to identify candidates with the right aptitude and motivation
  • Technical program, 12 weeks full-time or 6 months part-time
  • Embedded change management and manager coaching throughout
  • Post-program placement into designated roles, with 24-month retention tracking

Hire, Train, Deploy

We source, train, and place tech professionals from non-traditional backgrounds into client roles on a day-rate model. No placement fees and transparent remuneration.

HOW IT WORKS

  • Neoma sources candidates against an agreed role and capability profile
  • 12-week intensive technical training program before deployment
  • Placed on a competitive day rate, with full cost transparency
  • Option to convert to permanent employment at program end

The pressure on tech talent isn't easing.

The skills gap is structural, not cyclical.

Demand for tech capability inside large organisations continues to outpace the supply of job-ready graduates and experienced hires.

Internal talent is underutilised.

Established organisations carry deep institutional knowledge. That knowledge has real value in a tech context, if given the right pathway.

Career changers are the market's best-kept secret.

People transitioning from other careers bring commitment, diverse perspective, and professional maturity. They then stay longer, integrate faster, and perform better.

Review. Reskill. Retain.

01 · REVIEW

Workforce assessment

We assess aptitude, motivation, and readiness across the candidate pool. For reskilling cohorts, this includes manager alignment and role mapping. For HTD, it begins with sourcing against the brief. We run a cobranded marketing campaign demystifying tech roles and attracting candidates excited to work at your organisation.

02 · RESKILL

Technical program

Curriculum designed to your tech stack. Delivery is hands-on, project-based, and supported by experienced coaches. Both streams give participants full understanding of the SDLC, have AI literacy baked in from day 1, and they're given opportunities to work on both greenfield and existing codebases.

03 · RETAIN

Placement and continuity

We track every participant for 24 months post-placement - you're given access to live dashboards showing you their end to end journey including one on ones, and manager feedback. We track every diversity metric you're interested in. 100% retention at 24 months is our benchmark.

From at-risk to future-ready in under six months.

One of Australia's largest retail organisations transitioned twelve people from non-tech into tech roles.

“I have had the privilege of partnering with Gemma Toogood over the past few years on the Microsoft Tech Talent Generator initiative. Her exceptional work in designing and delivering highly technical programs has enabled professionals from non-technical backgrounds to transition into tech careers. Her unwavering passion for supporting underserved communities, including women, ethnic minorities, and the LGBTQIA+ community, is truly inspiring. Gemma's dedication will have a lasting impact on every learner that emerges from this program.”
