Landscape Profiling
Local Talent Matters
When investing in change, such as relocation, building a new operations or site, or even changing working conditions, understanding the local labour market is a critical factor in decision making.
When our clients have considered relocating part of their operation, or building a new site, decision makers have wanted to understand if the skills they need exist in that area and will this new location have talent available nearby?
Needless to say, that when organisations are investing in change which they feel will benefit them, the positive impact of this change will depend on whether the right talent is available for them to connect with when they need them.
Most employees will come from the local labour market, so it is critical for anyone considering relocating, opening a new office or operations site, to study where the qualified candidates are before they make their decision.
