Are you having conversations around the 'talent sh Are you having conversations around the 'talent shortage' or ‘battle for talent’ in FMCG?🤔  Firstly you are not alone. Being at the forefront of the UK FMCG talent market, we are consistently engaging with Senior HR professionals and business leaders who are experiencing or highlighting the same challenges.  In the 'Great Resignation' period we have been experiencing, there have been large proportions of talent pools who have moved roles in the last 18 months. Across some areas and skill sets - such as Category Management, National Account Management and Demand Planning, there have been career changes with as much as 50% of the talent pools. 
Even more so recently, securing talent is a recurring challenge for businesses in the FMCG space, and whilst we have said that it may not be your business or brand which is at fault, now may be a good time to review👀  Ask yourself the following question – 'Why would a happily employed person want to come and join the business in the role you are looking to fill' - Can you answer this easily and effectively, or is it a stop and think moment?🤔  Need help with the above or want to get a better understanding of the FMCG Recruitment market?

What is your current recruitment process? How is t What is your current recruitment process? How is that working for you?🤔  A lot of organisations, including major blue chip organisations have worked closely with us to look at and review their recruitment process timescales, requirements, stages... and have then tweaked or adjusted accordingly. Strong examples of this include the removal of testing, or first stage presentations. These tweaks have enabled passive talent to be engaged easier.  Our advice is to work closely with your partner to ensure you have an understanding of the talent pool and shortlist situation - it's not always a one-size fits all. Each candidate will have their own set of circumstances, and individual buttons that need pushing. Receiving guidance on the situations of each candidate, particularly when seeking to hire highly sought after profiles or in demand backgrounds, can be pivotal.  Need support with the above?
