𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝗦𝗚 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 ESG is one of the fastest-growing fields, as both investors and corporations begin to integrate sustainability into their business model. This is resulting in the increased demand for ESG-minded leaders and executives across all sectors- meaning recruitment firms are having to adapt their strategies to find the best talent. ESG issues are having a significant impact on businesses globally, with more of an integrated approach- companies are not only expected to perform well financially but also demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and ethical governance. It has been reported that fewer than 40% of companies across sectors are on track to meet their sustainability commitments. Companies will place a greater emphasis on hiring executives with experience in this area- increasing demand. More realistic sustainability goals are being set by organisations and while the business world begins to shift its focus towards ESG there are still many unknowns when it comes to this sector. However, one thing is certain, the future capabilities of executives in sustainability will be crucial to the success of any organisation and recruitment will play an essential role within it. With the increased demand in the ESG and sustainability sector its important you are in a company that will allow you to benefit properly from this.

🌱 Recruiting for ESG and Sustainability roles: A Growing Challenge 🌱 In today's rapidly evolving job market, finding the right talent for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Sustainability positions has become increasingly complex. 🌍 Companies are recognising the importance of sustainable practices, but the pool of qualified candidates remains relatively niche. One of the main challenges is the specific skill set required. ESG roles demand a blend of technical knowledge, regulatory understanding, and a genuine passion for sustainability. Unlike more traditional roles, these positions often require candidates to have experience with the latest sustainability frameworks and reporting standards. With only 43% of UK companies feeling confident about their sustainability strategies (source: PwC), the need for top-tier talent is more critical than ever. Another obstacle is the cultural fit. Candidates not only need the technical prowess but must also seamlessly integrate into a company's vision and values. At RecruitAbility, we believe in a thorough vetting process to ensure candidates align with both the immediate needs and future aspirations of our clients. ✔️ This meticulous approach guarantees long-term success and satisfaction for both the employer and the employee. Finally, the competitive nature of these roles cannot be underestimated. As companies across all sectors ramp up their sustainability efforts, the demand for ESG professionals skyrockets. This trend reinforces the importance of a recruitment agency that understands the unique demands of this sector and can connect you with the best candidates efficiently. 🤝 Have you experienced challenges in recruiting for ESG roles?

Just read an amazing piece about ESG and its impact on recruitment and retention in the manufacturing industry. I think Ginni Cooper has really captured its importance and how its on everyone's agenda. 1 Jul 2024 North West Ginni Cooper, Partner at MHA discusses ESG. Many manufacturers are aware of the importance of having a sustainability strategy in place, but the urgency of implementation is perhaps not given top priority when there is a plethora of other business issues on the table. Economic times remain challenging and energy intensive manufacturers are met with difficult decisions, so why move ESG up the agenda? Regulation and reporting How does my ESG strategy affect the way I do business? Even though the regulations may not yet apply to you, it is likely you are a component of the manufacturing supply chain to a company within scope. You may need to provide your green credentials as part of any tender process and a lack of attention to this area may render you non-competitive in such situations. Tier 1 suppliers will be reviewing all elements of their supply network and potentially enforcing greener initiatives on them. Being pro-active in this arena can differentiate you from the competition. Similarly, investors may be looking to improve the carbon footprint of their portfolios and base decisions on non-financial KPI’s. They may impose pressure to make changes to a business’s strategy as a condition of their investment. Financiers may offer better terms on funding to support investment in green technologies or initiatives which, in turn can improve process efficiencies and profitability. Can my ESG strategy help with recruitment and retention? Recruiting and retaining skills is a key issue for the sector and it is vital that employers understand what motivates their people. Younger generations are socially aware and are looking for businesses that demonstrate a positive purpose, with ESG being a part of this. Importance is attached to working for an organisation that is doing the right thing, actively managing its carbon outputs or producing goods that are environmentally friendly. But the intention must be real, with goals being set that are achievable, and actions being demonstrably implemented. Any strategy must be set because it is considered the right thing to do and link back to the core principals of the business or it will not be believed in. With a potential change in Government, we would encourage a renewed focus and support for the manufacturing sector with a much-needed industrial strategy but ESG has been quietly rising up the agenda of businesses and we don’t anticipate this changing so we consider the value of ESG in terms of not just compliance but a how it adds value to your business.
