The topic of the recruitment of security personnel is important for at least two reasons. The first is that it has long been seen as a specialist task requiring distinct skill sets. Then came the internet but the best in the area not only survived but thrived. What then of Covid-19? The second is that recruitment professionals are the first to see changes in the type of skills on demand and types of people being recruited. With this in mind this webinar will examine what ways has this impacted on practice. Has then the changing nature of work we have heard about in previous webinars forced a rethink on what organisations now seek? Are clients recruiting different security managers, are security suppliers seeking different personnel? Do recruitment professionals see a rosy picture for their own skill sets? This webinar will discuss:

In what ways has Covid-19 impacted on the role of the security recruitment specialist and perceptions of it?
What skill sets are now in demand and why?
What does the future of security recruitment look like?

Panellists:
Brett Ennals – Founder and Director of Cento (UK)
