With GDPR coming into effect on the 24th of this Month, we reflect on what the future will hold for the Insurance sector, particularly from a Data Protection Standpoint.
Manufacturing accounts for 23% of the entire UK Economy and more than 7.5 million jobs rely on the sector. Its effect and importance upon the UK cannot be underestimated and will play a vital role in our economy in the days to come following Brexit.
With Brexit still a prominent topic, a recent survey conducted by EY found that out of 440 foreign investors, the sentiment towards the UK had not reduced. However 21% of UK Investors have changed their investment plans since the referendum vote.
The role of the Programme Office Manager has been evolving over a number of years, morphing its way from a predominantly administrative role to one where the emphasis is on creating best practice for delivery and governance.
What has 2018 held so far for UK Manufacturing and what will it hold in the future as Brexit, GDPR come in the midst of a supply chain management crisis?
Since the first quarter we have seen a 51% increase in demand for qualified Interim CFOs and clients now view knowledge transfer and Digital Transformation skills pivotal in this current climate of change.
