Where we came from.
Hi there - I’m Caroline Gleeson, Occupop Co-Founder
People often ask me why we built Occupop. A happy intersection of the functionality and scope of a robust ATS system married with a simple, easy to use way to track complex hiring processes and manage candidates effectively — all without much training.
That’s why we built Occupop — we believe that recruitment can be distilled down into its simpler elements, easy to use and accessible to everyone at work.
While there are many good, robust recruitment software products on the market today, many are complex, require comprehensive training and none support the hiring needs of small and medium businesses —which is a cost sensitive, comprehensive solution that is so simple to use, almost anyone can jump in and use it.
We believe that solving that is critical for small and medium businesses in particular.
We’re here for the Fortune 1,000,000
Most big software companies fight over the Fortune 100. The big players, the thousand-seat contracts, the enterprise level deals.
They can have them.
For over 7 years and running, we’ve kept our company small, sharp and laser focused — intentionally. We’re here for the Fortune 1,000,000. The small and mid-sized businesses of our world, the start-ups, the growing businesses, the scaleups, the businesses that do the hard work, not the most work.
Have 2-3 employees on your recruitment team? We’d be honoured to have you as a customer. Just you on your own? We’re here for you. Got 10+ HR folks and growing? Great, we’d love to have you, and grow with you.
Because small is not less than. It's faster than. It's friendlier than. It's warmer than. It’s more than.
Lessons from the SMB trenches
As a small-mid sized business, you don’t get to risk or lose money like the behemoths. Instead, you have to make it work. That means, rolling up your sleeves and doing the great work that small organisations must do to survive, thrive, and stand out. Occupop is here to help you with that.
We offer a refreshingly simple yet innovative product paired with a unique SMB focused perspective and outstanding customer service — the best combo in the business for growing businesses. Check out these before and after stories and our case studies.
We’re in your corner
We don’t have to juice numbers to move stock prices or bombard you with upsells to hit revenue targets. We’re proud to be a female-led, independent, responsible, self-sufficient company focused on making a great product for our SMB customers — just like you are.
An investment in Occupop is investing in you, your team, and your organisation. You in the foreground, us in the background — together we’ll show them the power of small.
