Employers need people with tech skills - but they want innovators and problem solvers too
Over the past 18 months, technology has transformed the workplace and our experience of it. Now, as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, many of us will be wondering what comes next. A recent WEF report suggests the rapid pace of change will continue. Businesses will engage with colleagues and customers in new ways, and we will have to adapt our skills if we want to keep up.That creates challenges and opportunities. Business leaders are already struggling to find the right people to help them move forward. In fact, our latest report reveals that almost two-thirds (64%) of companies do not have the skills they need to transform their operations using technology. The good news is it creates significant opportunities for people who do have the qualifications and experience to help them evolve.So, what exactly are employers looking for?The recent shift to remote working and buying and selling more goods and services online has led to an increase in the demand for candidates who can help companies improve engagement and collaboration and keep employees’ and customers’ data safe. In other words, businesses want people with skills in cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things devices, encryption, and cybersecurity.In the UK, if businesses haven’t already adopted cloud and connected technologies, they intend to within the next four years, so the current skills shortage is a problem they need to address – and fast.Emerging roles for tech specialistsHowever, successful firms also look further ahead, and almost all roles that analysts believe will grow in demand over the next few years are IT and tech related. They include:Data analysts and scientistsAI and machine learning specialistsBig data specialistsInternet of Things specialistsDigital transformation specialistsProcess automation specialistsInformation security analystsFinTech engineersDatabase and network professionalsBusiness development professionals.The skills you need to be successfulFor anyone who is interested in pursuing a career in one of the roles mentioned above, it is worth noting that employers are unlikely to judge candidates on their technical abilities alone. A wider range of skills is needed to maximise the benefits of emerging technologies and deliver a return on a company’s investment.Martin Ewings, Brand Leader and Operations Director at Experis UK explains:“When it comes to soft skills employers are seeking, candidates with strong emotional intelligence, adaptability to change, good client and customer engagement skills and a strong drive for learning and self-improvement will be extremely valued. Accountability and good communication skills are highly desired, especially in the current remote work environment.”The top 10 emerging skills are:Active learning and learning strategiesAnalytical thinking and innovationCreativity, originality, and initiativeProblem solvingCritical thinking and analysisEmotional intelligenceResilience, stress tolerance and flexibilityLeadership and social influenceTechnology design and programmingReasoning, problem solving and ideation.Our new AI-driven Experis Career Accelerator provides IT graduates and people who have skills and experience in related roles with the opportunity to assess their capabilities and develop their career in areas that we know are in demand. It also offers free fast-track courses and learning modules on a range of specialty topics with some of the industry’s leading accredited providers.

Human skills are needed now more than ever as companies digitise
"Schooling doesn’t assure employment, but skill does."Amit Kalantri,Wealth of WordsLook closely at the news stories circulating about the hiring challenges facing companies around the world and you will see a common narrative emerge. Loads of jobs, in virtually every industry, but a lack of talent is hampering recruiting efforts.This situation appears even more daunting in the tech sector given the competition for talent. Why? Because every company is now a tech/digital company. If they hadn’t already, the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated efforts to adopt and deploy new technologies to help businesses pivot and stay afloat over the last year and a half.According to our latest report, ‘Stack It Up: Tech Skills in Demand’, tech-related jobs currently make up more than 50% of the top 20 in-demand roles, globally. Included in the list of most in-demand tech jobs are:Data analysts and scientistsAI and machine learning specialistsDigital marketing and strategy specialistsSoftware and application developersWhile the search for qualified talent with these skills is ongoing, and an uphill battle, getting talent with the necessary technical qualifications is just one side of the coin.It’s not enough to just have the right technical skills anymoreAs companies automate processes to improve efficiencies, and utilise AI capabilities, the skills required from employees is changing. There is a growing need for human soft skills to effectively execute in-demand roles, and finding the right combo of skills is likely to only become increasingly competitive.Along with technical capabilities, some of the top soft skills that will be advantageous for companies to hire for are:Analytical thinking and innovationCreativityLeadership and social influenceEmotional intelligenceResilience and flexibilityAs tech evolves towards 5G, driven by the rapid rise in remote and mobile work, and demand for cyber security and cloud engineering continues at pace, the future profile of talent is morphing.Two-thirds (64%) of companies do not have the skills required to implement their digital transformation strategy and capitalise on growth potential. But what can be done to help this?The 4 B’s – Build, Buy, Borrow and BridgeChanging workforce dynamics and the acceleration of tech adoption is forcing organisations across all industries to redesign their workforce composition and rethink their skills mix.
