What to Expect:

TED-Calibre Keynote: AudienceLink CEO and Founder, Rowan Marriott, maps out The Future of Talent Acquisition. He will explore the crucial systems, processes, content, and platforms required today, alongside a much-needed 'next level' step change for in-house recruitment teams hiring at pace across Care, Retail, and Hospitality.
'What Would You Change?' Future Mapping Workshop: Led by Rowan and Jasper Marriott - this is where YOU will help shape the conversation - YOU are the experts!
Empowering the Process (Cygnet Health Care Case Study): AudienceLink Director of Content & Facilitation, Jasper Marriott, will share an inside look at recent 'BeTheExpert' and Customer Service training initiatives. Discover how actively developing and empowering recruitment and onboarding teams can completely transform your end-to-end talent attraction process and prepare your people for strategic change.
From Vacancy to Full Team: A Hospitality Case Study: Simon Tetley, Head of Talent at Lore Group will share real-world example of how Lore Group tackled chronic front-of-house and kitchen vacancies by rethinking their attraction strategy - from job ad content and candidate experience through to speed of response. Hear what changed, what the results looked like, and what's directly transferable to hiring in Care and Retail.

Strategic Networking: Over fresh coffee and conversation, our environment is intentionally engineered to connect you with the right industry peers, allowing you to share valuable insights and build high-value professional relationships.
