Positive News For The Interim Communications Job Market

I wanted to share some positive news and analysis for the interim / contractor market to end the week.

Temporary and interim demand/billing has increased at the quickest rate for 20 months!

"𝘛𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 - 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘱 𝘶𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴 𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯" - REC Chief Executive, Neil Carberry.

I've echoed this statement on numerous occasions and am a firm believer that interim professionals will be crucial to business recovery, providing a valuable resource without long term commitment.

From a Communications perspective, we anticipate Change and Internal Communications being especially in demand as business adjusts to new ways of working. Forward and contingency planning for future Lockdowns (regional or national) is especially important and key to the success will be effective internal communications.

Please get in touch if you would like to discuss how interim communications resource could support your organisation in the coming months.
