Problems recruiting?
The chances are that if you’ve tried to recruit into a professional services role in the last six months, you’ll recognize the challenge that HR teams and hiring managers are experiencing in universities up and down the country.
At a period of historically low unemployment – and we haven’t seen the level this low for almost 50 years – we are seeing real difficulties finding the right candidates, including for the specialist roles such as energy and sustainability managers that are the focus of new work that Universities Human Resources (UHR) is undertaking with sister-organisation the Association of University Directors of Estates (AUDE).
