Salary benchmarks
Our take
Orgvue is a software company focused on strategising and analysing new organisations to ensure their stability as they grow and develop. Customers include M&S, Tesco, and Sainbury’s.
Orgvue acquired Swiss-Norwegian workforce planning company Dynaplan in 2021 which expanded its organisational focus into a more data-driven one. This was a smart move for Orgvue as they sought to expand into international markets and capitalise on leaps forward in the machine learning field.
As well as this, Orgvue’s expansion and refocus on analytics has put them in a far stronger position to meet the demands and risks facing businesses in the modern world. 2023-appointed CEO Oliver Shaw brings more than a decade of experience in the retail analytics and corporate development space and will further hone the refocus on analytics.
