Mthree's Client Delivery Team provide ongoing strategic planning services throughout our engagements, to understand our clients' short, mid and long term technical and digital transformation plans, projects and priorities. We deploy consultants who can contribute to project delivery from day one, including where projects are in the initial planning phases.
This may include helping to plan business transformation roadmaps, changes to policies and procedures, onboarding or centralising specific vendor technologies or managing complex transformation projects via deploying the following capabilities:
-Helping to cite project objectives, scope, constraints, and assumptions

Our training is instructor-facilitated and led by former practitioners with typically 5+ years of industry experience. We follow an Applied Learning approach based on real-world scenarios where trainees operate within either technical or role-specific exercises to ensure application to their future roles. Our training is also Outcomes-Driven and aligned to pre-defined goals agreed with The Buyer and assessed and measured throughout the process.

- How the support service works
-
During our engagements, mthree provides support across two primary areas, which include working with both our deployed consultants and our client's own project managers. Our support extends throughout the duration of our partnership. Consultants are trained specifically in the cloud hosting and software services related to your projects and requirements and will be ready to deliver from day one. Consultants can support cloud hosting or software services via:
-Collecting and analyzing data to monitor performance and ensure efficiency
-Implementing a control process and taking corrective actions
In addition, our consultants use IT support to provide customer value. They have strong soft skills to interact with customers in tier 1 support, triaging incidents, and working with tier 2 or 3 support to resolve and document issues. They are also trained to monitor internal Service Level Objectives (SLOs) that include application metrics and incident management procedures with KPIs, such as Mean Time To Repair, Mean Time To Detect, and Mean Time To Respond. Our staff are skilled at configuration management and problem-solving, which involves analyzing logs, searching for patterns, maintaining cloud monitoring systems and adding targeted alerts. This level of support provided by our consultants results in more reliable software services.

As part of each client engagement, we will allocate a Client Service Manager (CSM) to support on the delivery of projects. The CSM will be responsible for working with our Training Academy Leaders, Talent teams and Operations teams, to ensure all resources are aligned to successfully deliver on a project for the buyer. In addition, they will be responsible for interacting with the buyer’s hiring managers / assigned POCs to; i) provide updates; ii) arrange interviews; iii) support with any issues/questions.
Once consultants are deployed with the buyer, the CSM will bring in our “Development team”. An individual within this team will be assigned to the buyer to ensure that consultants are continuously developing in their role/position even after they are deployed. We will work with the hiring managers to understand what additional training, certifications, networking groups/events will progress them in their job, and Mthree will then own the cost/time/training to make sure they meet these expectations.

Fighting climate change
Wiley are serious about their impact on the world and their position and values are detailed in Wiley’s Environmental Policy. While Wiley is the parent company of mthree, we are covered by these principles and initiatives.
Wiley has committed to set near and long-term company-wide emissions targets in line with the SBTi (Science Based Targets Initiative). Committing to being Carbon Net Zero in line with this initiative means that by 2040 Wiley will have reduced emissions by over 90% when compared to the FY20 baseline. Wiley’s Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) can be found here: https://www.wiley.com/content/dam/wiley-dotcom/en/b2c/documents/pdf/FY23 TCFD Final.pdf
In addition, in FY23, Wiley was certified as a CarbonNeutral® company across their global operations, in accordance with the CarbonNeutral Protocol.Covid-19 recovery
Our Hire-Train-Deploy model responds to the economic challenges brought by COVID-19 as we focus on the progression of underrepresented talent while helping our clients build an inclusive culture.
The pandemic brought about a lot of change in how we work and how businesses are run. It also encouraged the advancement of technology, which gave us the opportunity to bridge the skills gap in tech by connecting education to the working world.
We always have diverse people in our talent pool, since we strive for a minimum of 40% female representation and 50% representation of ethnic minorities in every Alumni cohort we run, helping those who were unemployed during the pandemic.
One objective of our ongoing plan to increase the representation of diverse groups has been launching a women in technology (WIT) program in 2022, to continue increasing representation of women across our programs globally. We have had several successful ‘all female’ WIT cohorts now run in the UK and the US, and will be extending this out to other global regions in the remainder of 2024.
In addition, we have staff fully qualified in Mental Health First Aid to offer support to our resources when they need it.
Our training courses are fully remote as a response to the need to become more adaptable and cost-effective operationally due to the changes in the way we work post COVID-19. This opens up opportunities to match even more resources with clients who would have otherwise been constrained.
Other ways in which we empower different groups with the digital skills required to help advance clients’ recovery post covid by:
-Helping veterans and career changers to break into the tech industry
-Helping school leavers who don’t have a degree yet to start a career in tech
-Hiring neurodiverse people and people with disabilitiesTackling economic inequality
Our resourcing process aims to treat everyone equally. We believe in allowing those who have worked hard to achieve their dream, regardless of what university they graduated from, to have access to opportunities that will enable them to excel.
By expanding our university partner list, vetting and engaging with external training facilities, conducting events on and off campus, and working with several paid vendors, we can identify numerous candidates who would have easily been overlooked or never made aware of our client opportunities.
We pride ourselves on the fact that our talent proposition is the most attractive in the Hire-Train-Deploy space, as it attracts and retains candidates by offering them the following benefits:
-A stipend to be paid at the end of training, to make sure financials are not an obstacle to learning.
-Competitive salaries throughout deployment that are benchmarked and improved based on industry standards.
-Full benefits covered.
-Salary raises every 9 months.
-Customised Ongoing L&D Program.
-No legal training bonds or exit fees.
We are the only major player in the Global Hire-Train-Deploy space who do not lock our resources into contracts whereby if they leave the program, they are forced to repay the cost of training or are subjected to other equivalent punitive measures. We haven't adopted this approach as we feel it is unethical and discourages top talent in underrepresented groups from joining the program.
Instead of forcing them to remain with the client throughout the deployment, we focus on enhancing the entire candidate experience. We ensure that they are motivated to stay with both us and the client long-term by providing financial compensation throughout their training, 9-month pay raises, continuous development programs and, most importantly, matching the individual to the correct opportunity in the first place.Equal opportunity
Our talent strategy is built on inclusion and diversity at the foundation. We believe a more diverse organization can achieve a more competitive business advantage because unique perspectives drive a productive and innovative work environment.
We target more diverse universities, colleges, and alternative education providers to recruit higher percentages of females and underrepresented groups than the industry average. We also partner with diverse organizations and student groups to market our opportunities directly to students coming from diverse backgrounds.
mthree currently has 31% female resources and 41% ethnically diverse candidates in roles with clients. These numbers are significantly higher than industry averages. For example, just 19% of UK tech workers are women (source: https://digitaltrade.blog.gov.uk/2023/09/04/women-in-tech-closing-the-gender-gap-in-ddat-dbt/). During the recruitment process, we have our job descriptions and interview practices reviewed by a 3rd party vendor, helping us to reduce hiring bias and source more diverse talent.
mthree tracks diversity metrics to make sure that we can continue expanding the representation of diverse groups within our training cohorts. While this is clearly more than just about statistics, the numbers allow us to increase diversity by running specific initiatives like our Women in Technology program which has focused exclusively on giving more women the opportunity to start a career in technology.
To support their specific hiring goals, clients ask us for talent who are more diverse in terms of the following parameters:
-Gender
-Ethnic background
-Socio-economic status
-Education (non-degree and school leaver)
-Age – e.g. veteran programs and career-changers
-Disability
-Neurodiversity
-Location.
At the start of 2024, we deployed our first People with Disabilities cohort for a client in India. The cohort included 20+ candidates with different disabilities such as locomotor disabilities, vision impaired, hearing impaired, speech impaired and blood disorder.
