PERSONNEL TODAY invites you to their event

Why is employer branding 20 years behind consumer branding?

About this event

The idea of spend £1 here and get £1.50 back in revenue has existed for decades in consumer branding. So why is tracking ROI so tough in the world of employer branding?

In the past, employer branding has felt like the forgotten sibling of consumer marketing. It’s not directly attached to revenue, people rarely talk about their jobs online and budgets are limited.

As leadership teams realise that building a solid reputation as an employer has a real impact on their bottom line, post-pandemic, employer branding has moved from a nice-to-have to a necessity.

To get ahead, HR and talent acquisition professionals need to understand how to attract and keep the best talent, who would consider working for them externally, and how their employer brand stacks up against the rest of the market.

This Personnel Today webinar, in association with employer branding agency Wiser, examines how employers can gather insights into how they are perceived and how they can project their brand most effectively.

Editor Rob Moss is joined by Ben Buffone, co-founder and chief creative officer at Wiser, and Hannah Charrington, head of research.
