New recruits join moneysaving app firm

Technology firm, yboo, has reached growth targets in the past month, resulting in the recruitment of a new project manager, Gabrielle Caves, along with a social media intern - resulting in an office expansion.

Gabby will be working on engaging the end user and recording their experiences, as the firm strives to bring their app to 60m smartphone users in the UK. Gabby previously worked in financial services attracting the attention of millions of consumers to competitive mortgage deals despite each consumer’s unique circumstances.

The firm, which was founded in 2016 by Martyn Gould and Paul Doyle, are also looking to recruit three software developers to join their growing team. The additional recruits have meant that yboo have had to expand their office space in Holmfirth to ensure they can deliver on further growth targets and support their international expansion.

Martyn Gould, founder of yboo, commented: “In the last few months we have gone from strength to strength; in addition to our recent investment announcement, we have taken on Gabby - who I’m sure will be a huge asset to the yboo team.

“We have always been committed to bringing job opportunities into the Holme Valley, and with the need to further recruit for software developers and a social media intern, we have expanded our office space in Holmfirth.”

yboo is a mobile phone application that compares SIM only deals from the UK mobile market by measuring consumer usage to match them with the best deal and saves the UK consumer on average £156 per year on their mobile phone bill.
