Firms 'should offer more flexibility for hard-to-fill sales jobs'

Companies looking to hire new staff should ensure that they offer sales jobs which provide flexibility if they are operating in sectors experiencing a skills shortage.

Mike Petrook, spokesperson for the Chartered Management Institute, claimed that this is "key" as Britain is currently experiencing a draught of talent.

"By being inflexible in terms of the type of employment that you're offering, your organisation could be shutting itself off to reams of top talent," he explained.

The key thing that employees engaged in the recruitment process should assess is the quality and quantity of the output that a worker produces, rather than the input – such as hours – that they put in.

Mr Petrook said: "It's not the hours that somebody spends at a desk or in their place of work; it's what results they deliver. Are they meeting the objectives? Are they helping the organisation? That's what really counts."

Recent research by the Recruitment and Employment Confederation and KPMG has found that the number of permanent and temporary staff appointments rose in June, albeit at a slower rate than in prior months.
