Retaining key talent will be the main challenge facing UK employers, according to a new survey from specialist executive PA and office support recruiter Crone Corkill.
 
Almost a quarter of firms said that retaining talent would be their top challenge over the coming months as any recovery in the market will inevitably lead to employees reassessing their job options.

Lee Dempster, operations director at Crone Corkill, says: “We are definitely seeing signs of organisations preparing for recovery. As well as looking at retention, employers are now re-addressing recruitment needs - particularly those which may have undergone significant restructuring at the beginning of the year and which are now ready to source the correct skills sets required.”
