There’s no toilet rolls on the shelves again! There’s barely enough fuel to go around, if you’re lucky enough to find any at all!

But is this a problem that’s been in the post for the logistics sector for a long, long time?

Today we talk to Jon Morey, a specialist logistics recruiter and sector expert, about the challenges which face the industry he knows and loves:

• Why this is a UK specific problem (before you consider IR35 and Brexit)?
• Why is the candidate pool in logistics an ageing one?
• Why aren’t younger workers attracted to the industry?
• What can be done to turn things around?
• Is it as simple as raising salaries - or is there something deeper in play?
• Does a person-led approach lead to greater returns when it comes to your commercials?

Also in our conversation, you should listen out for a strong advocation for the oldest marketing strategy since time began, and why treating your candidates as human beings shouldn’t be the exception, but the rule.

This is a fascinating conversation, with a look behind the curtain at a situation which has affected all of us over the last few weeks and months.
