“It’s the economy, stupid.” And in that moment, the paradigm by which political discourse became viewed changed. Now with a new Labour Government in situ, the signs are for the most redistributive budget to be seen in many generations. In fact, given the fact New Labour mostly signed up to the tenets of the prior Conservative regime, you would have to go back to pre-Thatcher to understand how this Government seeks to govern.
After a protracted slowdown in the post pandemic period, the life sciences sector is finally springing back to life. July was the record month this year so far and the signs are positive looking forward. In terms of what had caused the lull, it is worth factoring that with the UK leaving the EU this had meant that the MHRA had to take over regulatory approvals for new trials, and this process has taken time to bed in.
Effective onboarding is key to setting up new starters for success in the competitive recruitment industry. As managers, it is crucial to provide comprehensive training and support to ensure that new recruits are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to excel in their roles.
In the first seven months of 2024, Scotland recorded 12,766 professional vacancies, which accounted for 5.3% of the UK’s total of 226,708 vacancies. Scotland’s job market has seen a modest year-on-year increase of 0.5%, significantly lagging behind the UK’s national average growth of 2.5%.
