Commercial leaders said this about our 2024 event:
This provided a useful understanding of the Q.S. market in the present day both in terms of the individual and the Employer. Certainly a worthwhile insight into the current industry conditions which I would recommend to others.

The 2024 event was an interesting event which gave me a wider insight in the QS market and challenges with recruiting staff. I would highly recommend attending similar events in the future

FAQ's
Why are we doing it for free?
It builds trust; the more open we are, the stronger the relationship. If clients already know the insights, we don't waste time explaining them during a high-pressure hire. It's proof of work, showing it proves we actually know the market.
2.5 hours - why should I invest the time?
The cost of a bad hire is weeks or months of lost time. We've cut the fluff; every minute is insight you can use. Friday morning means you finish your week with fresh ideas; 2.5 hours that could stop ££££'s of waste on your next hire.
Isn't this HR stuff?
No. This is built for commercial leaders. We're talking QS hiring and retention linked to margin, not policies and paperwork. The mistakes we highlight show up in commercial teams, not HR. That's why people left last year saying 'I wish I'd known this sooner'. This is about protecting profit.
Can't I just get the slides after?
No. The slides don't give you the full picture. The nuance comes from the stories and examples. The value is in the live interaction; the questions you and others bring. Slides = 10% of the insight. The other 90% only happens in the room.
Isn't this just a sales pitch?
If it was, last year's event wouldn't have been a resounding success. The insights stand on their own. Even if you never use us, you'll leave knowing what mistakes to avoid. This is the reality of the QS market.
Where is the venue?
The Department Bonded Warehouse (M3 4AP) is located right in the heart of enterprise city in Manchester: 3 minutes walk to Spinningfields, 5 minutes to Deansgate train stations and 9 minutes to Salford Central.
