Food for thought: Busy season has begun in the UK accountancy world, but believe it or not, now is the time to get your hiring strategy in place. In this episode, we delve into recruitment trends and what to consider as you hire, not just in 2024, but beyond. 

In this episode, Donna and Yasmine share key insights on:

  • Recruitment as a continuous consideration in your business plan
  • Why busy season is actually the best time to instigate the recruitment process
  • The importance of being proactive, flexible and knowing where you stand with your business and team
  • Holistically viewing your practice to help you navigate an ever-changing hiring landscape
