Software-as-a-service company working in NZ changes its name

A software-as-a-service company which provides services for New Zealand and other countries around the world has changed its name this week.

StepStone Solutions, which provides software-as-a-service solutions in talent acquisition and talent management, will be known as Lumesse from today, Tuesday, 10 May, the Grapevine Online reported.

The rebranding has been sparked by rapid growth in the company, which now has around 1,700 clients, including Heineken, PSA, Peugeot Citroen and Virgin Atlantic.

It is a move to get away from parent company StepStone, which it separated from last year after a management buyout backed by HgCapital.

Head of global marketing Michelle Martin said: “The brand reflects the kind of company our people said they want to work for – vibrant, human, fun but focused, global in scale but local in execution and, above all, a business that generates fantastic outcomes for its customers and inspiring careers for their people.”
