People & Workforce
The workforce model and the people systems around it, fixed together.
The public sector doesn't have a hiring problem. It has a keeping problem, a planning problem and a systems problem, all at once. Nearly half of public sector organisations run manual workarounds because their HR and payroll systems can't do what's needed (Zellis via LocalGov, 2024). We fix the model and the machinery: culture, communications, employer brand, hiring, workforce and development, treated as one connected problem.
- Workforce planning and the permanent/contingent mix
- Retention economics, agency spend reduction, and the culture, communications and development levers that move them
- Employer brand and EVP: the honest reason someone good would join and stay, found from your own people and put to work in every advert and interview
- Hiring capability, plus HR and payroll system selection and implementation, vendor-neutral
