Roundtable Discussion: Attracting And Retaining The Right Workforce

Event

Event summary

The breadth of work and opportunities available in the public sector is outstanding, not to mention the sense of purpose it can deliver. Yet, finding and retaining the right workforce is an ongoing challenge for many.

During the session, we’ll explore what skills are needed in public sector finance teams both now and for the future, and the initiatives needed to attract and retain them. We’ll discuss how we can build a culture of learning that supports retention and skills growth, as well as share examples of success and failure with peers.
