Chief executive James Whatmore said: “We are proud of what we have achieved to date and are excited to partner with Axiom and its operating advisers on the next phase of our growth journey.

“With its support, Joblogic is poised to become one of the world’s leading field service management software companies.”

The company will continue to be led by Mr Whatmore and his co-founder Yacoob Moolla who together retain the majority shareholding. Axiom Equity will join the Joblogic board in a non-executive capacity.

Founder Jonathan Organ added: “We were immediately impressed when we met the Joblogic team and saw the product.

“We knew that we wanted to back James and Yacoob with more than just capital and cannot wait to see what the team will achieve with some extra firepower at their disposal.”

Advisers on the deal were Alantra, Fieldfisher, Ashurst, Probitas Partners, Debretts, Fairgrove, Crosslake and James Cowper Kreston.
