How have STEM jobs in the UK responded during the pandemic?
STEM jobs and skills are vital to the economy: the UK loses around £1.5 billion every year due to a shortage in STEM skills. This situation has only gotten worse as a result of the pandemic crisis.
To address this, we need more education around emerging trends in employer demand for STEM jobs. Emsi UK, a labour analytics firm, created this webinar to share insight on the status of STEM jobs and skills, helping employers tackle this shortage and recruit the right skills for business growth.
Simply’s Founder and CEO, Simon Haines, joined Emsi’s Andy Durman and Duncan Brown to share his expertise.
Closing the gap with ‘Winning Skills’
Watch the webinar to learn more about how ‘Winning Skills’ can be used to solve the STEM skills crisis. We covered the significance of ‘Winning Skills’ as part of our research for KPMG’s 2021 ‘Future of HR’ report.
In this webinar, Simon touches on how businesses across all industries are using ‘Winning Skills’ to make smarter decisions around the most competitive skills to invest in. Data analysis is key to finding these skills, and businesses can utilise their data by:
1. Translating their business strategy into underlying capabilities and skills
2. Benchmarking against their strongest competitors
3. Tracking emerging, declining and forecast growth skills
4. Estimating, not surveying, for current skills in the business
5. Using AI tech to evaluate ‘build or buy’ decisions
6. Prioritising the closure of critical skills gaps
