Supply chain recruitment specialist, Momentum Logistics reckons the effects of widespread company downsizing will create a large pool of skilled management professionals seeking employment in 2009.
As companies in all sectors de-layer and seek to take out cost from their organisations, Momentum argues that management redundancies will become increasingly common in the next year creating a large pool of highly qualified, experienced candidates entering the jobs market, some for the first time after long employment with the same company.
Momentum managing director Steve Kaim-Caudle says that many of the logistics industry’s big employers can benefit by introducing this new talent into their organisations.
“An influx of skilled professionals will mean that major logistics service providers can be highly selective and only recruit high calibre individuals who meet their exact requirements,” he says.
