Everything you need to run a warm bench
Ready before you need us.
From raising a request through to a live, reviewed engagement, Surge covers the full contractor lifecycle — and keeps the bench warm between roles.
Most organisations start building capability when the gap opens. It leads to reactive hires and rushed workforce planning. Surge starts long before that. Working closely with you to identify possible skill gaps and build a thorough vetting and feedback system, we’ll identify and build your curated bench. We ensure the right capability is in place before the urgency arrives.
Surge — why we built it
Consultancies win the work.
Then the scramble begins.
Bid pressure, fragmented hiring and disconnected supplier networks create risk long before delivery starts. Surge was built to bring control, visibility and readiness before urgency hits.

Embrace Referrals

Who Surge is for
Surge is for organisations that can't afford capability gaps. The ones delivering complex transformation, scaling teams at pace, or managing specialist contractor workforces where readiness matters.
Consultancies & Delivery Partners
Professional services organisations whose reputation depends on putting the right people in place at the right time. Surge helps build a proprietary bench of trusted capability that scales with client demand.
Transformation & Delivery Leaders
The people responsible for keeping programmes moving. Surge ensures proven specialist capability is already identified, assessed and ready when demand appears.
Resourcing & Talent Teams
The teams responsible for building and maintaining capability. Surge helps keep the bench warm, engaged and deployment-ready, without the administrative burden of managing it manually.
Operations & Business Leaders
The people accountable for utilisation, quality and delivery outcomes. Surge provides visibility across your contractor workforce, helping you plan ahead instead of reacting under pressure.
Capability Builders
Any organisation that knows the best time to solve a capability gap is before it opens. Surge helps you build readiness as a discipline, not a reaction.
How Surge works
From discovery to live engagement in six clear steps.
Discovery
Work with the JUNA team to determine the skill sets and capability you need. Design your vetting process, highlight key filters and 'must know' information, and curate your feedback structure and cadence.
The bench is created
The JUNA team populate Surge with vetted talent, curated for you.
Raise a resourcing request
Tell Surge what you need: role, duration, location, day rate, IR35 status, clearance requirements. Surge sources from the bench first, then referrals, then the open market — and immediately presents your available bench.
Review AI-matched candidates
Get a ranked shortlist from the vetted bench, each with a fit score, rate, availability, IR35 status, clearance level and a short note explaining the match. Open the full profile before deciding, and request a further interview if required.
Track the engagement
Once a contractor starts, follow the engagement week by week. Collect structured feedback at the end so the next match is even better.
View and use your analytics
Use your dashboard to track the volume and breakdown of your bench capacity, giving you the confidence of capability.
