Consultant talking points
1

Reduce Decision Latency

Problem

Engineering vacancies are taking around 70 days to fill.

Suggested action

Set clear stage ownership, introduce weekly hiring standups, and cap feedback windows at 48 hours.

Expected outcome

Shorter hiring cycles and lower candidate drop-off within the next review period.

2

Reduce Agency Dependence

Problem

Agency usage is running at approximately 50% across current hiring demand.

Suggested action

Segment agency use by role difficulty, build direct sourcing lists, and reserve agencies for true specialist searches.

Expected outcome

Lower external spend without reducing hiring coverage.

3

Tighten Hiring Fit and Onboarding

Problem

First-year attrition is estimated at 16%.

Suggested action

Review candidate expectation setting, success profiles, and the first 90-day onboarding journey.

Expected outcome

Lower early attrition and stronger manager confidence in new hires.

Top risks

What could slow progress

Slow Hiring

critical

Hiring cycles are longer than comparable organisations.

Likely increasing vacancy cost, candidate drop-off, and agency reliance.

Agency Overdependence

high

Agency usage appears structurally high rather than exceptional.

Recruitment cost may be masking problems in direct attraction, process speed, or manager ownership.

Poor Early Retention

high

First-year attrition suggests hiring fit or onboarding may be underperforming.

Replacement hiring is creating hidden cost and distracting managers from growth work.
