Press Release presented by Global
Why early engagement and the development of skilled labour pools are becoming increasingly important to successful project delivery.
Some of our most recent project wins didn’t start with a call asking for labour. Relationships and onboarding started months before the first workers were required on site.
During the early engagement period, our teams work closely with key stakeholders to understand project programmes, anticipated workforce demand, required skills, mobilisation and potential areas of risk. That early engagement has allowed us to move beyond simply responding to an order and instead, build the workforce capability around the project.
Before mobilisation begins, we market-map the required skills, engage potential workers, develop talent pools, understand local labour availability, identify potential shortages and establish the compliance and onboarding processes required to support delivery.
Karl Clack, Head of UK Operations, commented:
“Early engagement gives everyone greater visibility. It allows us to challenge assumptions around labour availability, commercials, skills, mobilisation and the contingent element, before they become project blockers. That preparation ultimately reduces risk for every stakeholder involved”
“For the customer and wider project stakeholders, this preparation delivers tangible benefits”
It promotes conversations around rates, training, upskilling and workforce peaks when there is still time to develop solutions.
The Returns?
The return isn’t simply measured by the number of people successfully placed.
It can be seen in reduced project risk and cost, improved timelines, stronger compliance, workforce retention and greater confidence in the supply chain.
For procurement, it provides improved visibility, governance and commercial control, to ensure standards are established and understood before boots on the ground.
And for the workers themselves, it creates a more organised recruitment, onboarding and mobilisation experience, making them part of the team.
Global’s recent project successes across the business demonstrate that some of the most important work a recruitment partner delivers, happens long before anyone arrives on site. These results reflect the value of early engagement, careful planning and strong collaboration, and it is particularly encouraging to see the entire business aligned and moving in the same direction.
The UK continues to face significant pressure on the availability of skilled labour, particularly across infrastructure, construction, engineering and other specialist sectors, and Identifying recruitment requirements at the earliest possible stage of a contract, provides a significant advantage.
