HR Leaders to address talent pipeline challenges in Real Estate sector
Exclusive breakfast roundtable hosted by Hintel and The Land Collective aims to combat diversity challenge in the sector
Hintel, the recruitment outsourcing partner of the deverellsmith group, is partnering with The Land Collective, an organisation which develops the next generation of diverse leaders in property and the built environment, to lead a discussion on creating sustainable talent pipelines and attracting diverse early career professionals. After completing one of The Land Collective’s programmes:
96% of students had seen improvements in their commercial awareness
98% felt more confident in their job search within the built environment
The Land Collective works directly with employers to build inclusive pipelines that deliver meaningful results, whilst ensuring that talented individuals from diverse backgrounds have the opportunity to thrive in the built environment sector.
"The Rental Living sector is experiencing significant growth compared to its residential development counterparts who are facing obstacles when developing due to legislation, but this expansion is highlighting a critical talent gap,” comments Sarah Hayford, CEO of The Land Collective.
"Rather than continually drawing from the same limited talent pool, companies must develop strategies to attract, develop and retain diverse talent from early career stages.”
The National Insurance changes are predicted to impact minimum-wage positions compared to higher-salaried roles, further impacting the pipeline of new talent entering the industry.
"This roundtable provides a unique opportunity for HR leaders to collaborate on solutions that go beyond competitive recruitment practices,” added Pete Sheppard, Managing Director of Hintel UK.
“By focusing on long-term talent development strategies, the industry can work together to build an employment community that can be nurtured."
The event is exclusively for HR leaders in the Real Estate sector which will facilitate an open discussion and networking with those who are facing similar challenges across the Real Estate spectrum. The event takes place on July 10th, 8 am – 10 am at City Pavillion Boardrooms.
