Finance is a rapidly changing sector with the rise of fintech and automation replacing long-estblished understandings of how the industry works. Recruiting to key financial roles in your business may now be more challenging than ever as candidates often need to be assessed on their understanding of these new operational frameworks.

Top sales and marketing talent has never been in higher demand and providing the salary to attract and maintain such talent is a major challenge. Potential candidates have also never been more sensitive to both a company’s work culture and its reputation for matters like corporate social responsibility.

Perhaps no sector has been more radically transformed in recent years than the retail sector with a move from the high street to online sales. Many household high street names have failed to make this change effectively and have disappeared as major brands. Recruiting – and retaining – staff able to flourish in the new world of e-commerce is now absolutely business critical.

When recruiting becomes a matter of urgency rather than something you’ve been planning it can feel like getting someone – anyone – in place quickly is an uphill struggle. You’ve set your expectations to damage limitation. Usual concerns to find someone who is a good match with your corporate culture and image may feel unrealistic.
