Challenge: finding accurate, real-time salary data

As a growing global business in the trade software space, Fergus needed access to reliable and up-to-date market data to inform their remuneration reviews. Traditional benchmarking sources weren’t cutting it.

“Sourcing accurate and real-time salary data was a challenge.”

Rochelle Cooper, Head of People & Culture


Solution: more precise benchmarking with LiveRem

Since adopting LiveRem, Fergus has had access to accurate and dynamic market data that reflects the reality of the NZ and global market. This has supported more confident and consistent pay decisions.

“LiveRem’s market data has provided more accurate benchmarking.”

The tool has also simplified the review process, saving time and improving the experience for both HR and leadership teams.


Result: faster reviews, better outcomes, and a stronger platform

Rochelle has already recommended LiveRem to other companies for two clear reasons: it makes salary reviews faster and easier, and the more companies contribute their data, the more powerful and valuable the platform becomes for everyone.

When asked, would your recommend LiveRem, Rochelle responded:

"Yes, and I have done so already. Firstly, it’s a quick and easy way to do remuneration reviews. Secondly, the more companies that upload their data, the better the tool is for all.”
