Our take
Deputy’s scheduling, timesheet and time clock software allows businesses to more easily manage shift and contract workers. In the last few years, it’s become one of the biggest names in its market, having been founded in Sydney back in 2008.
This hypergrowth began after a USD $81 million injection in 2018 - the largest Australian Series B at the time - followed by a doubling in size within a year. It is now operating out of offices in the UK and US, as well as at home in Australia.
Deputy has helped over 330,000 businesses worldwide across 100 countries, with clients including Amazon, Google, and Uber and saw a rise of 7000 new customers in 2022. The company is focused on investing in its engineering and product to ensure it stays ahead in the market.
