Consumer clients
Consumer electronics
Hybrid working has led to an increase in demand for electronics in households and health-conscious consumers are increasingly investing in wearable devices and well-being related gadgets. These trends provide profitable opportunities for consumer electronics businesses. To remain competitive amidst supply chain uncertainty and fluctuating spending patterns, companies are hiring experienced talent to accelerate innovative thinking.
DIY
Demand for DIY products has returned to pre-pandemic levels as consumer spend less time at home. To remain competitive, DIY companies are prioritising the development of robust supply chains and management of cost increases. Growth opportunities are influenced by technology and societal trends that inspire people to engage in creative and practical DIY endeavours. The resulting demand for innovative skills and new ways of working are bringing in skills from other sectors.
Drinks
Demand for low-alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages, eco-friendly and smart packaging, and direct-to-consumer sales creates a dynamic industry. We collaborate with established brands in the drinks industry, as well as challenger brands that aspire to gain their mass market presence. To achieve growth and secure a strong foundation, businesses in all drinks categories need the best talent in critical positions.
E-commerce and Retail
The e-commerce and retail sector continues to evolve, driven by technological advancements, changing consumer behaviours, and global events. Retail and e-commerce sites face similar and conflicting challenges to succeed, and many companies are addressing both routes to market. It’s a highly competitive landscape under constant pressure so to compete effectively, businesses require people with skills capitalise on market developments.
Fashion and Lifestyle
The lifestyle and fashion industry is heavily dependent on global supply chains, which are increasingly disrupted by geopolitical issues, leading to significant challenges influencing production and logistics. To remain competitive, businesses in this sector prioritise creating and adapting robust supply chains, whilst remaining mindful of seasonal changes and environmental protection. We recruit lifestyle and fashion talent across Norway, the Nordics and Europe to help businesses achieve their goals.
Food
Consumer preferences for sustainably sourced food, transparent supply chains, and healthy ingredients are influencing food companies to rethink their manufacturing and marketing strategies. This applies to any categories, including those found on chilled counters, free-from aisles, baked goods sections, and convenience shelves. Our team takes pride in assisting food brands to identify and attract great talent. When required, we work seamlessly with colleagues in our international offices to source candidates from across borders.
Home and Personal Care
Despite the health crises that have limited many consumer industries in recent years, the home and personal care sector has remained buoyant. Global events continue to drive innovation in the sector, and influence how businesses are structured. Sustainability expertise alongside digital, customer experience, and supply chain skills are all in high demand.
Homeware
Over the past few years, homeware businesses have grown alongside the increasing investment in home and outdoor living products, including furniture, décor, and other home-renovation-related goods. The sector is being driven by eco-friendly sourcing, smart home adoption, and the use of natural materials. Digital and supply chain management skills are in high demand as companies seek to improve online visibility and manage costs.
Toys and Children
Parents are increasingly seeking engaging and enriching experiences for their children, so toys that promote creativity, imagination, and artistic expression are in high demand. To build trust and credibility in this sector, it is important to address parental concerns about screen time, digital privacy, and the educational value of toys. Companies operating in these markets require people who are mindful of societal changes and can create physical and digital experiences that appeal to children.
Industrial Clients
Industrial businesses are adapting to the challenges posed by supply chain disruptions, economic fluctuations, regulatory changes, and technological advancements by embracing digitalisation, sustainability, and, increasingly, AI and automation.
Manufacturing and engineering companies have diverse demands for upskilling their workforce when hiring new talent. Every organisation has different demands, and candidates require skill sets that are dependent on specific industrial subsector needs.
