Executive Talent – Humanity, Community, and Identity

We are delighted to announce the sponsorship of the Best Assessment and Selection Strategy Awards at this years The Firm Awards 2024.

Skills shortages are likely to continue to occur when employers can't fill roles in a particular specialism or area of work.

A recent KPMG study found that almost 50% of employees want their employer to demonstrate a commitment to ESG. One in five employees turned down job offers if they weren't satisfied that the company was aligned with their values.

A disconnected workplace is one of the drivers of the “quiet quitting” trend and disengaged employees are quick to make a change if the culture of a company doesn’t meet with their ambitions.

It is with great pleasure that we announce the promotion of Julia Connor to Managing Director at Taylor Osborne.

Executives have realised the high value of company culture is a direct result of the tight labour market. In order to retain and attract new employees, a company should strive to be open, welcoming and innovative.

A recent article from the World Economic Forum finds that although CEO pay has recovered to pre-pandemic levels and some workers in high-paid jobs have enjoyed larger bonuses and pay rises, high price inflation is now impacting the real value of what most people earn.

The pandemic has accelerated a change in labour market dynamics. Companies are having to flex and adjust to keep up.

ESG (environmental, social and governance) has become a priority in corporate strategy and a central part of business development.
