Newsletter: autumn update
As we move into Q3, I hope you’re feeling positive about the months ahead.
It has been a bumpy six months for the recruitment of senior leaders in marketing and digital/tech, but the market is turning with a solid pipeline of roles coming through, as organisations focus on their budgets and strategies with a renewed sense of optimism for 2024. With 72% of senior leaders aiming to move into a new role in the next 12 months, the timing couldn’t be more ideal.
Interim and fractional roles have remained a hot topic within the market and it’s something we have been talking about for some time. It’s the ideal solution for clients looking for a low-risk but ambitious transformation and for candidates looking to build a greater breadth of experience. We recently talked to two of our Interim Stars, Julie Davidson and James Rawlinson about their own experiences of interim roles.
It was also a real pleasure to meet a dynamic group of marketing and digital/tech leaders, at Chief-of level, at our recent networking breakfast. We discussed the level of confidence in the market, which sectors are seeing growth, and how to position marketing as a value-add function for organisations.
‘I just wanted to say thank you for a great event today. What a great group of people you brought together, and your kick-off opened up a fantastic conversation. I really enjoyed it.’
We look forward to meeting other senior leaders on Friday 10th November and Friday 24th November at The Delaunay, London. For more information and to express your interest in attending.
If you feel ready to move towards the next stage in your career, or if you’re hiring for your team, please get in touch to see how we can help.
Warmest wishes,
