Unifying Data for Strategic Decision-Making in a Global Employment Marketplace

How The organisation Partnered with Versent to Build a Scalable Enterprise Data Platform for Unified Reporting Across Multiple Regions

Client Overview

A market leader in the online employment marketplace, operating across multiple regions, connects job seekers with opportunities while providing businesses with end-to-end talent acquisition and workforce management solutions. As the company expanded into new markets, it faced growing challenges in managing and integrating its data across regions. To maintain accurate reporting, improve operational efficiency, and support strategic decision-making, the company required a centralised and scalable enterprise data platform.

Challenge

The organisation’s existing data infrastructure was outdated and fragmented, limiting efficiency in data reporting and integration. The legacy systems were not designed for scalability and struggled to meet the demands of a growing business with expanding regional operations.

In Phase 1, the enterprise embarked on a full re-platforming effort for Australia and New Zealand, transitioning from legacy systems to a modern enterprise data platform. This transformation aimed to enhance data accessibility, streamline reporting, and lay the groundwork for future scalability.

As the organisation expanded into the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, Phase 2 focused on extending the platform’s capabilities to ingest and integrate APAC data. This uplift ensured a unified, enterprise-wide view of data that supported enhanced reporting and business intelligence.

Without this two-phased approach, the company faced:

  • Operational inefficiencies, with outdated technology hindering timely and accurate reporting.
  • Limited scalability, as legacy infrastructure could not support a rapidly growing business.
  • Disparate regional data, preventing a cohesive and accurate understanding of business performance across AU/NZ and APAC.

Key Issues

  • Outdated Legacy Systems – The existing platform was no longer fit for purpose, requiring a complete re-platforming to ensure efficiency and scalability.
  • Siloed Data Across Regions – The lack of a centralised system meant AU/NZ and APAC data were fragmented, limiting strategic decision-making.
  • Scalability Constraints – The old infrastructure could not handle growing data volumes, requiring an uplift to support ongoing business expansion.

Customer Aim

The organisation aimed to modernise its data infrastructure through a structured re-platforming process that would:

  • Replace legacy systems with a scalable, cloud-based enterprise data platform.
  • Unify data across AU/NZ and APAC, ensuring seamless reporting and analytics.
  • Improve operational efficiency, reducing manual data processes and enhancing accuracy.
  • Enable future growth, by implementing a platform capable of scaling with business needs.

  • Versent designed and deployed an enterprise data platform to consolidate and unify data across key region.
  • The solution enhanced reporting capabilities, reducing manual effort and improving data accuracy.

Phase 2 – APAC Data Integration

  • In Phase 2, the platform was uplifted to ingest data from the company’s APAC operations, creating a unified view of regional performance.
  • This enhancement enabled better insights, improved operational efficiency, and facilitated data-driven decision-making at scale.
  • Expanded the platform to integrate data from APAC, providing a single source of truth for business reporting.
  • Improved strategic decision-making by ensuring consistent, accessible insights across all regions.

As Part of the Process We:

  • Designed and built an enterprise data platform to streamline reporting across regions.
  • Integrated multi-region data, enabling a unified, consistent reporting system.
  • Implemented a scalable and future-ready architecture to support long-term business growth.

Fostered close collaboration between business and Versent teams to align business objectives with technical execution

Outcome

The re-platforming initiative successfully transformed the organisation’s data management capabilities, providing a robust and scalable solution for business reporting and analytics.

  • Phase 1 outcomes: The migration from legacy systems to a new enterprise data platform for AU/NZ streamlined reporting, reduced inefficiencies, and improved data accuracy.
  • Phase 2 outcomes: The integration of APAC data enabled a unified, real-time view of regional performance, improving strategic decision-making and scalability.

As a result, the company experienced:

  • Significant reduction in reporting time, enhancing agility and decision-making across all regions.
  • Improved scalability, ensuring the platform can support ongoing business expansion.
  • Enhanced operational efficiency, increasing automation and improving workflow optimisation through seamless data integration and standardised reporting structures.

With a modern, enterprise-ready data platform, the company is now positioned for continued growth, with the ability to scale and optimise operations across all key markets.

Key Benefits

  • Unified Data for Better Insights – A centralised platform improved data accuracy and accessibility.
  • Scalability for Growth – The solution supports evolving business needs across multiple markets.
  • Operational Efficiency – Automated and streamlined data processes reduced effort and increased reporting speed.

Further Impacts & What’s Next?

With a scalable enterprise data platform in place, the organisation is now focused on further optimising its data strategy. The next steps include:

  • Investigating AI capabilities to drive intelligent automation and enhance data-driven decision-making.
  • Exploring automation in reporting and data governance.
  • Leveraging new data capabilities to refine business intelligence frameworks.
