As AI investment accelerates and digital transformation intensifies, CIOs and tech leaders face growing pressure to turn innovation into measurable business impact − without increasing risk.Experis surveyed 1,930 C-suite technology leaders across 12 countries, including over 150 from the UK, to uncover the key priorities, challenges and actions defining the modern CIO agenda.Cyber security is keeping more than half of Britain’s tech leaders awake at nightUK organisations are more concerned about cyber threats than any other market globally with more than half (56%) of UK CIOs, CTOs and CISOs ranking cyber security as their number one concern – the highest level recorded across all 12 countries surveyed in the latest Experis CIO report.Rhona Carmichael, Managing Director, Experis UK, said:“Cyber risk is no longer hypothetical – it has become a very real threat for UK businesses. Recent high-profile incidents have shown just how quickly an attack can move beyond IT systems into the heart of operations – affecting services, supply chains and customers almost instantly, often with prolonged recovery periods. That has changed the conversation. It’s no longer about ‘if’; meaning cyber security has shifted from a technical priority to a core business need.”The pace of change is the leading barrier29% of UK tech leaders cite keeping up with rapid technological change as their top business challenge, broadly unchanged from 30% in 2025.Business and IT alignment is a high CIO priority39% of UK IT leaders now view aligning IT strategy with business objectives as the most important CIO responsibility, up from 30% in 2025AI optimism is tempered by realism62% of UK tech leaders say their AI investments are already generating positive ROI, yet only 21% rank delivering AI solutions as a top CIO responsibility.

ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey - Q3 2026
SURGE IN UK BUSINESSES SET TO HIRE IN Q3 The latest ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey (MEOS) reveals strong hiring intentions from UK employers, with the UK now ranking 4th globally for hiring outlook.The headline UK Net Employment Outlook: +37+10 points quarter-on-quarter+18 points year-on-year37% of businesses plan to hire in Q3What’s driving demand? Businesses aren’t just optimistic − they’re recognising a clear need for talent. 49% plan to increase staffingGrowth is spread across 8 of 9 sectorsInformation (46%) and Construction & Real Estate (43%) are leading the way, while Public Sector, Health & Social Services (29%) and Hospitality (12%) are lagging behind. Michael Stull, UK Managing Director, ManpowerGroup UK says: “UK businesses are realising the need for people. Uncertainty has dominated the UK economy and job market for months, but that is not sustainable for businesses, employees or the consumer. That’s why we are seeing the needle shifting in terms of a willingness to hire."Although there is a willingness to hire, the picture is not clear cut. We know that hiring will not be on a mass scale – instead we expect many businesses to hire in single figures – and we also anticipate that businesses will be recruiting for roles which they’ve delayed filling.” Where is growth happening? Momentum is strongest outside London. North-West: 48% outlook (highest in the UK)North-East: 46%Northern Ireland: 45%London trails at 32%Wales: sharpest quarter-on-quarter improvement, rising 21 points to 29%Who’s hiring − and who they want Mid-sized organisations are leading recruitment activity, but hiring intent spans all business sizes. Critically, demand isn’t limited to senior roles: 47% hiring entry-level talent39% hiring individual contributors30% hiring junior managersStull concludes: “It is well reported that the UK has a deep-rooted youth unemployment issue, which cannot be solved overnight. It will require fundamental change across all parts of the jobs ecosystem. However, I am encouraged to see that nearly half of those surveyed plan to recruit entry-level roles. This is a step – albeit small – in the right direction.”Get the full picture The full MEOS report breaks down: Sector-by-sector hiring trendsRegional insightsTalent demand by role and seniorityHiring intentions by business sizeEXPLORE THE FULL REPORTREAD THE PRESS RELEASE

ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook Survey – Q2 2026
Is the UK labour market turning a corner? ManpowerGroup research shows cautious optimism.Our latest report reveals a cautious optimism about labour market rebound.Hiring confidence has risen across the UK, with mid-sized businesses fuelling the outlook. Employers across the UK report a clear increase in hiring confidence for Q2 2026, with a Net Employment Outlook of 27% – a 15 percentage points rise on the previous quarter. This marks one of the sharpest quarterly uplifts in five years and indicates that hiring plans have strengthened broadly across the market. This is supported by early signs of business growth, with 47% of employers expanding and 26% moving into new areas that require additional roles. “The latest research shows cautious optimism in the labour market. Beyond a rise in hiring confidence, there have been early signs of recovery coming through in other parts of the economy with employer sentiment improving and housing market indicators stabilising. These are the kinds of movements that typically show up before we see shifts in real hiring activity. Having said this, we expect the current geopolitical uncertainty to contribute to further hesitancy, so growth predictions are fragile.” Michael Stull, Managing Director, ManpowerGroup UKFrom a global perspective, the UK’s position has also improved, ranking 23rd out of 42 global markets and 7th out of 19 European markets. Hiring sentiment across UK regionsHiring sentiment has strengthened across nearly every UK region, withYorkshire & Humberside (34%) and South West (36%) leading the way.Hiring intentions by business sizeMid‑sized businesses are setting the pace for hiring in Q2, with the strongest outlooks among organisations with 250-999 employees and 50-249 employees. Gains are also evident for smaller firms (10-49 employees); fewer than 10 employees and mid‑large companies (1,000-4,999 employees). The only group with a negative outlook remains the largest employers – those with 5,000+ employees (−4%). Hiring intentions by sectorWe’re seeing improved outlooks across all sectors, with continued momentum in Information (38%) and Finance & Insurance (38%), followed by Manufacturing (34%) and Professional, Scientific & Technical Services (34%).With confidence rising but ongoing geopolitical uncertainty still in play, there’s real curiosity about where this will take the labour market next.
