How do you stay ahead in a rapidly evolving tech landscape? 🤔 It was a question we heard time and again throughout Techweek26 last week.

Our team attended events across the country, having these conversations firsthand and gaining a front-row view of how the future of work is taking shape. Here are our main takeaways from two standout sessions held by Deloitte:

Our key takeaway from the latest Technology Investment Network member event? The organisations getting ahead are the ones thinking early, planning with intent, and aligning their hiring with where the business is heading.

The panel discussion, guided by our General Manager Kerrie Gregory, provided some really interesting insights from Victoria Hayward at Douglas Pharmaceuticals, Nicola Talbot at Fisher and Paykel Healthcare, and Rachel Stuart at Aroa Biosurgery. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences!

We’re proud to sponsor these events and can’t wait for the next one. If you’re not already a TIN member, it’s worth joining for the events alone. See you there!

Taking the leap into a new role, or bringing in a new starter, is an act of trust. As a candidate, you want confidence that you can step into the role and truly succeed. As a client, you need to know that you're hiring someone who's the right fit for both the role and the team. With 30 years in tech recruitment, our Regional Manager Brian Bernard knows how to match these requirements perfectly.
