Q3 Planning - Don’t Let Talent Gaps Hold You Back

Q3 Planning? Don’t Let Talent Gaps Hold You Back

Now’s the Time to Build – Before It’s Too Late

It’s Tuesday 8th July, and across the UK, businesses are looking to deliver results in Q3. But here’s a question: Do you have the right team in place to make that happen?

At Howard James Recruitment, we speak with companies every week who’ve delayed hiring decisions… and now face productivity bottlenecks, project delays and stressed teams.

The Hidden Cost of Hesitation

🔍 Delayed projects
💸 Rising contractor costs
⚠️ Burnt-out staff
📉 Slower delivery and missed opportunities

By addressing gaps early in Q3, you avoid disruption in Q4 — when delivery deadlines and end-of-year pressures peak.

Summer Hiring = Smarter Planning

Think hiring slows in summer? Think again.

✅ Candidates are more open to change
✅ Interview calendars are more flexible
✅ Less market competition means better talent access

And with the election out of the way, business confidence is stabilising. Now is the moment to act.

Let’s Talk About Your Q3 Team Plan

Whether it’s one strategic hire or building an entire team, we can help you move forward with clarity and speed.
