The manufacturing industry continues to be beset by supply chain challenges, so we can expect an increased use of digital supply networks and data analytics as a response to the disruption.
The increasing importance of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) is also leading manufacturers to up their focus on delivering against net zero or carbon neutral goals, and voluntarily complying within a complex network of reporting regulations and disclosure frameworks.
There is a severe ongoing skills gap in manufacturing, which is likely to limit productivity and growth. As a result, demand for experienced manufacturing professionals is extremely high.
To attract and retain talent, manufacturers are pairing strategies such as reskilling with a new articulation of their employer brand. This is being done with the aim of shrinking the industry’s public perception gap of the manufacturing industry and making manufacturing jobs a more desirable entry point.
