Asda people! My early years with Morrisons’ Supermarkets has left me connected to a lot of retailers and it’s been sad to see some of the difficult situations that Asda’s decision to end 450 people’s employment has caused. So I wanted to post with some advice and encouragement. Some advice: ✅ The world is full of cv advice so I’ll keep this bit brief. Two sides, be accurate and ensure you focus on things you’ve achieved (numbers help) rather than just the jobs you’ve had. 🤝Don’t be embarrassed, reach out to everyone you’ve worked with over the years. They’ll help where they can and a personal relationship can unlock doors and application can’t. 🫶Reach out to the other people you know in your situation, support each other 💻Set up job alerts and get recommendations for good retail agencies. McCarthy Recruitment AdMore Recruitment Zachary Daniels are three, reach out. 💷work out your finances understand where you stand and if necessary reach out to banks, providers etc and explain your situation 💻get on LinkedIn and use it. It can be a great network and there’s lots of decent people who will help you if they can That’s practical stuff, now the emotional which trust me I understand ❌You have nothing to be embarrassed about. Better people than you or me have been in this position. ✅Treat your search like a job. Allocate time to it and ensure you have down time too ✅ Get stuck into those things in your personal life you’ve been putting off they’ll give you a sense of purpose and satisfaction As George Harrison once said All Things Must Pass Keep the faith and if you want any advice just pop me a note

EMPLOYEE INCENTIVES 🐾 After being worked to the bone last week, Humphrey enjoyed a well earned ice cream in the sun 🌞 Jude's is a multiple Award Winning British Manufacturer which have created a fantastic name for themselves in their 22 years of operation. Their story, growth and purpose is impressive from their dedication to supporting #localcommunities through to their commitment to reducing their #carbonfootprint. A true #britishmanufacturing success story... Their dog ice cream passed Humphrey's taste test but knowing that for every good boy treat I buy, a percentage of sales goes to Battersea Dogs & Cat's home is more than a good enough reason to repurchase. 🐶 🐈 It is increasingly important for candidates on the job market to join companies who have a positive vision and ethos, these don't always necessarily come in the form of salary and benefits package. Questions to ask at interview: 🍧 What is your company culture like? 🍧 What are your growth plans and when did you last promote internally? 🍧 How long have you worked here and why do you like working here? 🍧 What sets your company aside from others in the industry? Get in touch for interview help, tips and advice. We are always more than happy to help! 💗 Philippa 📞 07711573718 📩 philippa@williamsmanufacturing.co.uk #britishmanufacturing #interviews #candidateadvice #ukmanufacturing #foodmanufacture #employment #fmcg

Harley Davidson is Dumping Supplier Diversity There is a tremendous amount wrong with supplier diversity metrics today. I live and work in a Qualified Opportunity Zone (QOE). I even invested in a QOE fund in my zip code to support the local market. Yet, as a white male (Jew), if I were to launch a Harley parts supplier in Gary, Indiana (and I maintained majority control) and I hired local residents, it would not be considered a diverse business, despite the fact my zipcode's average income is $32K per year and the population is 76.7% Black. However, if I worked with a Black friend and set up a business on the North Shore of Chicago (or downtown), it could qualify as a diverse supplier, even if we did not hire any minorities, provided he owned 51% (even if I fronted the capital). Given the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC) and other certifying authorities generally benefit from keeping the status quo with their certification programs, my two cents is that it will take radical steps like Harley Davidson's to fix supplier diversity programs to focus on metrics that matter such as providing well-paying jobs to those most in need (especially second chance workers) and union and non-union apprenticeship programs in the trades, manufacturing and service sector where economic blight persists. Procurement has tremendous power to do right here, not just tick a box. Perhaps this starts with stopping the ticking of boxes that do little more than virtue signal. What do you think? Please feel free to disagree completely! Debate is sorely needed on supplier diversity to align on a new set of metrics that correlate with better outcomes for employment, income, job training, the local economy, and innovation in the areas of the US that need it most. #supplierdiversity #procurement #innovation
