INTRODUCTION FROM DAVID LEITHEAD - UK CHIEF OPERATIONS OFFICER

Generally, the most prominent theme in the UK's professional recruitment market throughout 2019 was how Brexit caused uncertainty, with employers reluctant to commit to hiring and job seekers hesitant to make the leap when offers did materialise. The quantity of jobs available and hires completed were both heavily impacted, as reported in the results of all the major PLC recruiters as the year progressed. According to Bank of England research, UK businesses expect more clarity and certainty to return in 2020 and a key question for recruiters is whether demand has become pent up in the system, in which case we could see a spike in hiring and an escalating war for talent in 2020.

As well as Brexit headwinds, another spectre hanging over a major section of the professional workforce in the private sector is the much publicised reform of IR35. This reform aims to transform the enforcement of these 20 year old tax rules that were designed to prevent workers from using Limited Company entities to disguise employment. If the plans are rolled out in April 2020 and not delayed by the new government, it will result in a largely negative transformation of the private sector contracting landscape, with much collateral damage, at least in the short term.

2020 will see the recruitment market further impacted by the use of technology tools and particularly Artificial Intelligence. The development and deployment of these tools continue to accelerate, along with the debate about whether they are good or bad for the industry.

AI is held out to be a game changer in eliminating bias from recruitment, but as well as doubt over how we can trust the machine to get it right, there are ethical and moral dilemmas. And it seems job seekers don't like it research in 2019 showed that 86% of job seekers would prefer a human being to review their CV, and 73% feel a highly automated recruitment process worsens their perceptions of an employer. So it will be interesting to see how things play out in the next 12 months and where progress is made.

Technology advances are affecting recruitment in other ways too, as many jobs are changing and the skills sets sought after are adjusting as well. Managing this new breed of employee is something that traditional managers are not always equipped to do, and development around that will be a major theme of organisations' hiring in the coming year.

Our individual market reports show that the topic of flexibility in the workplace and a greater focus on wellbeing and work life balance are big themes for 2020. Organisations will face real challenges with engagement as more of their employees disappear from the traditional office set up. Employers will also need to be diligent because, in 2019, it became clear that increased levels of flexibility seemed to drive up working hours an unexpected and generally unwelcome consequence.

Overall many recruitment companies in the UK will be looking forward to 2020 in the hope for a more positive market. There will be challenges but also lots of opportunities!

SUPPLY CHAIN & PROCUREMENT

OVERVIEW OF SUPPLY CHAIN AND PROCUREMENT RECRUITMENT

The Supply Chain and Procurement recruitment market remained buoyant throughout the entirety of 2019, as cost savings and value for money remained key factors for the majority of businesses across the UK.

There was a distinct increase in businesses requiring experienced professionals to fill Supplier Relationship Management roles as they looked to closely manage their suppliers and really maximise their existing relationships, as well as the contracts where possible. Another area that was continually busy throughout 2019 was Category Management, specifically within IT/ Tech and Professional Services. The investment in top quality talent across both of these areas has brought about incredibly positive results for many organisations, with improved business performance and increased engagement from their existing suppliers.

Prominent benefits across Supply Chain and Procurement

Over the past few years, flexibility surrounding working patterns has become a leading request from Supply Chain and Procurement professionals. This has been noticeable around more relaxed daily starting/finishing times as well as being offered the opportunity to work from home. One bank has even allowed a proportion of its workforce to work from home or remotely every day of the week.

Organisations have had to adjust their processes to accommodate for these shifting demands. Gone are the days of solely relying on hefty remuneration packages to attract top quality talent - organisations risk missing out on some of the best Supply Chain and Procurement professionals if they can't offer a level of flexibility to prospective and existing employees.

Predictions for 2020

In line with the prolific final few months of 2019, we expect organisations will continue to focus on hiring permanent Supply Chain and Procurement professionals. This will most likely be caused by the impending IR35 changes, due in April 2020, which has been giving contractors some serious thinking to do about how they want to be employed and paid after the deadline. There is a possibility that these changes will be delayed by the new government but regardless, interim positions will still be required and there will be an appetite from organisations to hire for contracting - but we foresee these roles to primarily fall within Transformation and Project teams rather than standard Category Management.

As it was such a prominent area throughout 2019, we anticipate Relationship and Relationship Management jobs will remain in high demand across the Supply Chain and Procurement arena. This will come from businesses continually aiming to ensure their contracts are maximised whilst remaining compliant, regardless of how the political environment looks in post-Brexit Britain. Further to this, we expect cost savings and value for money to continue being key factors for the majority of businesses across the UK, and thus there will be sustained recruitment of experienced professionals across wider Supply Chain and Procurement.
