NH237 Consulting and WDAD Communications - Research on the future intentions and challenges facing the UK’s employers

Introduction The opportunities for the Employer Branding profession have never been greater and neither have the challenges 4 By way of context, the individuals who took the time to fill in the survey were largely from their organisation’s Talent Acquisition function or from its Employer Branding team. No one identified themselves as working in comms or marketing. The industry sector occupied by such organisations ranged from utilities, to education and pharmaceuticals, with some relative concentrations in finance, digital and engineering. 53% of our survey suggested that employer branding was owned by the TA, recruitment or EB teams, with another 20% indicating that such ownership belonged to the broader HR team. The following individuals from the Employer Branding and Talent Acquisition profession were kind enough to provide their own thoughts around our research and its findings. We couldn’t be more appreciative.
