Launching a new streaming service in a fiercely competitive market required ITVX to assemble a skilled and highly adaptable engineering team quickly. The goals were clear but challenging:
- Rapid Talent Acquisition: Secure specialised technical expertise in record time.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Minimise talent acquisition costs while maintaining quality.

- Agile Collaboration: Weekly alignment meetings led by the RPS PMO team and delivery managers ensured seamless coordination, timely issue resolution, and proactive identification of blockers.
