September is a make-or-break month for employee retention. Here's why it matters: Summer vacation gives your people space to pull back and reflect. They're asking themselves: – "Am I truly engaged in my work?" – "Is my future here exciting?" – "Does this company actually support my growth?" Their answers determine whether they’ll spend the rest of the year planning their exit or their ascent. One well-timed career conversation can make all the difference. It's a small moment with a massive impact on retention. If your managers aren't prepared to have these conversations, now's the time to get them ready. Don't leave employee loyalty to chance.

Can you believe we are halfway through August?!   August is typically a vacation month, even here in the US. Hiring managers and executive teams are in and out of the "office" at different times, on different schedules, making the recruiting process drag on and hiring decisions delayed.   But the last few weeks of summer can be a critical time to start recruiting so your new hires will hit the ground running come January 2025. If you haven't assessed your staffing needs, set budgets, or planned projects for Q4 and 2025, there is no time like the present.   September usually brings the final hiring spree of the year with increased job postings and higher demand for talent. Get the edge on your competition. Start now.   New candidates are on the market, and Laney Solutions has been talking to them. Parking professionals take their careers seriously, which is why so many are evaluating their future and considering new opportunities… and for employers that means NOW is the perfect time to recruit.   If you are looking to add to your team of parking talent, let Laney Solutions help you make the most of these final summer days.

There's no need to go crackers, but Christmas is 131 days away! Here's why I believe it's important to hire your Christmas team EARLY, in order to ensure a successful peak trade. 🎄 Smoother Onboarding: leading to better team integration. 🎄 Time for Training: ensures your team members are well prepared to handle peak trade, resulting in higher overall productivity. 🎄 Maximising Sales Opportunities: a fully staffed team, with coverage across all shifts, allows you to capture every sales opportunity, as well as deliver excellent customer service. 🎄 Avoid The Last Minute Scramble: the closer it gets to peak trade, the more challenging it becomes to find quality candidates. 🎄 Boosted Team Morale: when your team sees that you have planned ahead, it can reduce stress and create a more positive work environment. Whether you have existing vacancies or need assistance with your Christmas recruitment, get in touch with us! 📧 melbourne@frontlineretail.com.au Sophie Mieglitz Brittney Elso Bianca McMurray Narelle Platt Sarah Vockler

Contrary to common belief, I do actually work from home, however this tends to be after hours, as seen in last night’s photo. Sporting my favorite lockdown gift T-shirt 😁, I was reviewing CVs for potential new roles at Compton. Interestingly, I’ve seen a noticeable shift in candidates’ attitudes compared to a year ago. Twelve months back, cover letters often expressed a preference for flexible working, requesting 1-3 days per week remote. Notably, today’s applications are silent on the topic, prompting me to ponder whether people now perceive full-time office commitment as better for their careers or if they’ve realised it’s necessary for top roles. Honestly, I’m uncertain about the answer, but one undeniable fact remains: Compton’s success is rooted in the culture cultivated by bringing the team together throughout the working week. This unity has driven not only the team’s advancement but also the growth of individual careers. At Compton we don’t endorse a WFH policy, and we never will. Cutting through the noise, it’s simply bad for business and detrimental to career progression. Happy Tuesday ✌🏻 #compton #notworkingfromhome #wfh #thoughtoftheday
