Off the back of our latest survey of recruitment business owners, I’ve pulled together a report that dives into the key trends shaping the industry right now. If you’re running a recruitment business, you’ll know first-hand how market conditions, policy changes, and pricing pressures are impacting strategy and growth this year.
From overwhelming concerns about the Autumn 2024 budget to shifts in pricing models and recruitment leaders adapting to new business realities, there’s a lot to unpack. What stood out to me most is the clear divide between those who are leaning into change and those who are feeling stuck.
In the report, I break down:
?? Why 93% of recruitment leaders expect a negative impact from the latest budget - and what they’re doing about it
?? The real impact of the Employment Rights Bill and how it’s already influencing hiring decisions
?? How recruitment business owners are raising fees, adjusting models, and considering offshoring to protect margins
?? The contrasting mindsets between those who are adapting and thriving versus those feeling increasingly uncertain
