puzzle ‘With the world of retail rapidly changing, employers must move with the times’ 21st January, 2022 3 mins read time The coronavirus pandemic has changed the way we work forever. Technology would eventually have driven a shift to more remote, flexible white-collar work, but the pace of that transition has skipped a generation. No longer is working from home every second Friday seen as a flexible arrangement; two days or fewer in the office each week is the new normal. Read Insight
How to identify and develop high-potential employees 20th January, 2022 8 mins read time High-potential employees perform their roles to the highest standards. More than that though, they’re the people who can go on to rise up the ranks, becoming the future of your company. Read Insight
Why Is Confidence Coaching for Women so Important? 14th January, 2022 6 mins read time The playing field still isn’t even: women remain underrepresented at the top end of business. There are many reasons for this and one of the primary ones is a confidence imbalance, which can hold immensely capable women back. By expertly coaching women in business and giving them the confidence their ability warrants, we help them push their careers further. Read Insight
retail boardroom ‘Agility and breadth of experience most desired traits in refreshed retail boardrooms’ 13th December, 2021 2 mins read time The weeks leading up to Christmas are usually a quiet time in the jobs market as retailers fix their focus on Christmas trading and decisions over recruitment are deferred until January. This year, as with last year, however the rule book has been ripped up. Read Insight
Ryan McDonnell Move of the Week: McDonnell climbs ranks to Lidl GB top spot 3rd December, 2021 2 mins read time The news that Ryan McDonnell will replace Christian Härtnagel as boss of Lidl GB will have come as no great shock to anyone familiar with the retailer’s recruitment strategy. Lidl almost always looks to promote from within, invariably handing top jobs to high-flyers who have been with the business for much if not all of their careers, and have gained experience across a range of functions and international markets. Read Insight
Lord Stuart Rose Move of the Week: New Asda chair Lord Rose on hunt for CEO 26th November, 2021 3 mins read time Lord Stuart Rose’s appointment this week as chair of Asda came as no great surprise. It was rumoured over the summer that Rose was a leading candidate for the role, not least because he already holds the position of chair at EG Group, the petrol forecourt empire of Asda co-owners Mohsin and Zuber Issa.

sam perkins Move of the Week: Perkins to lead In The Style growth journey 19th November, 2021 3 mins read time Sam Perkins describes himself as being “at my best in highly ambitious, entrepreneurial and collaborative organisations with a strong emphasis on data and technology”. On paper at least, Perkins has landed in the right place as chief executive of fast-growing online fashion brand In The Style (ITS). Read Insight
Jonathan Akeroyd Move of the Week: What will luxury veteran Jonathan Akeroyd bring to Burberry? 22nd October, 2021 2 mins read time Jonathan Akeroyd’s appointment as new Burberry chief executive should serve to ease some of the concerns surrounding the future of the fashion giant. When predecessor Marco Gobbetti made the shock announcement in June of his plan to step down from the top job, Burberry’s share price plunged 15%, while its chairman Gerry Murphy admitted to his disappointment at losing the business’s highly-regarded leader. Read Insight
robbie feather Move of the Week: Feather’s return to retail is a boon for Very and the industry 1st October, 2021 2 mins read time Robbie Feather’s next executive role could hardly be more different to his last. Feather will join etail giant The Very Group as its new retail managing director 18 months after his abrupt departure from Fenwick where he was in the process of making an analogue retailer fit for the digital age. Read Insight
the great resignation ‘Flexibility will be crucial for getting staff to stay during the Great Resignation’ 24th September, 2021 3 mins read time It has been dubbed The Great Resignation: the trend for employees to leave their jobs voluntarily as the coronavirus pandemic unwinds. US Labor Department data showed 4 million people quit their jobs in the US in April of whom 650,000 worked in retail. Other data, including from the UK, supports the view that these are devilishly difficult times for businesses looking to keep hold of their staff. Read Insight
