Skills Shortage - Boon or Bane

COVID has been a disrupter that has shaken economies, companies, businesses and the very fabric of our existence.

ANZ have always suffered from specialised skill sets even before COVID hit our shores and especially NZ been susceptible to these niche IT skills that go beyond Development, platform, CyberSec.

There seems to always an acute shortage of SalesForce Developers, architects, Solutions Partners amongst others. In the last 2 years and the in uncertain pandemic times many skilled migrants from all over the world returned home. However, now the bigger question on all our minds is IF we would ever recover from his skill shortage and if NZ still proposes to be a country of opportunities to attract skilled migrant workers. That is something that future months will unfurl however coming back to our topic on SalesForce shortages being faced by the country.

One can have a rather grim view however, the other view I have, is to look at it as a opportunity wherein the SF Ecosystem can be positioned attractively inviting a lot of IT folks. A breeding ground for interns, back to work women on sabbaticals or skilled migrants already in the country and trying to find a foothold into workforce. Salesforce practices are already highly constrained with the talent available in the New Zealand market today. With 3-4 major players in the market and several rapidly growing smaller practices in the New Zealand partner community that require new talent to continue to grow and flourish, New Zealand is literally screaming for senior qualified Salesforce professionals to support the rapidly growing end-user client base and increasingly complex projects. It’s estimated there are only around 130-140 qualified professionals in the NZ Salesforce partner community. There are just couple of certified Technical Architects at present and the demand for these skills is overwhelming.
