In 2030, 75% of the workforce will be made up of Gen Z. Employers must prepare themselves for the changing demographics of the workforce to compete in the war on talent.

Set to be the most disruptive generation yet, how can employers make sure they accommodate their desires and aspirations. With Gen Z increasingly looking for alternative routes into the workplace, are traditional recruitment methods the best ways to attract and retain top Gen Z talent? Are these methods outdated and damaging your overall employer brand? How are Gen Z looking to enter the workforce and how are companies making their talent strategies modern and competitive?

Come and hear from Tempo’s CEO and Co-founder, Ben Chatfield, on what talent strategies are effective in securing top talent, future proofing your workforce and reinforcing your employer brand. Talent is the key to company growth, make sure you’re not stifling yours.
