Problem
Critical infrastructure sectors face persistently high turnover rates—manufacturing averages 40%, construction 57%, and transportation 55%—which leads to lost production and unfilled shifts. Traditional job boards deliver excessive noise rather than qualified candidates, making it difficult for employers to find and retain motivated industrial talent.
Solution

The marketplace leverages a proprietary network to reach candidates before they appear on job boards, delivering talent matches that are 12 times more effective than Indeed with a 66% connect rate. SlateUp Next gives managers tools to assign coaches, build career paths, and track development so top performers stay and grow instead of leaving. The platform also unlocks government funding to make workforce development sustainable for employers.
