Insights from Ethos BeathChapman�s survey of over 200 mid to senior level Supply Chain and Procurement professionals in Singapore and Southeast Asia.
The same survey conducted by the global executive recruitment firm saw 51.6% of respondents anticipating that their teams will hire moderately and for replacement roles in 2021. Although permanent hiring has traditionally been prioritised in Singapore and Southeast Asia, survey results interestingly hints at contract hiring becoming a realistic proposition for some companies.
While the market will not expect an abundance of newly created jobs in 2021, there will be optimistic opportunities for supply chain and procurement professionals to upskill and embrace new responsibilities in 2021, says Robert Wisdom, director of Ethos BeathChapmans Supply Chain and Procurement practice.
Other trends uncovered by the survey include:
– Top career concerns for supply chain and procurement teams in 2021
– In-demand job opportunities in 2021 for supply chain and procurement professionals
– Top challenges in 2021 for supply chain and procurement teams
– Expectations of how teams will evolve in 2021
