Retail Event - Retail HR North 2025

Retail HR Forum: Attracting and Retaining Talent

6th Feb 2025

Retail HR North 2025


Your staff are the heart of your organisation – attract and retain the best talent

HR is understandably trepidatious about the year ahead. Inflation and the cost-of-living crisis has meant the jobs market has continued to fluctuate. In spite of the harsh economic reality, retail employers are still showing a willingness to advance their people and invest in employee development.

The event brings together key stakeholders from – HR, talent acquisition and management, recruitment, employer branding, organisational development, people & culture teams – to provide precise insights into the latest trends, developments and technologies in delivering a successful talent management strategy.

This event will explore:

  • How to convince key stakeholders of the importance to invest in your people
  • How the landscape of HR technology is changing and the benefits to retail of investing in better technology.
  • Helping HR become recession ready through resilience
  • Attracting and retaining the right and best people into the business
  • Ensuring that the business is surrounded by the best culture so they can thrive
  • Providing the right capabilities and development opportunities
  • Supporting employees with well-being benefits and programmes that truly make their lives easier

**Attract, engage, and retain your workforce**
