In today’s fast-paced environment, where agility and specialised skills are essential for the membership sector, Membership Bespoke is excited to launch the Interim Talent Hub, an innovative online platform created specifically for the needs of membership organisations.
As the leading recruitment firm for the membership sector, Membership Bespoke recognised a critical issue: skills shortages were growing, while the time it took to fill key positions was increasing, creating significant costs for many organisations.
Membership organisations play a key role in shaping government policies and influencing everyday life. Their importance to both social and economic development cannot be overstated, and this is why Membership Bespoke is committed to supporting the growth and success of this crucial sector.
Daniel Goddard, Co-Founder of Membership Bespoke, said, “A frequent question I receive from clients is how to bridge their widening skills gaps. Whether it’s a Trade Association urgently requiring additional lobbying and advocacy to represent its members or a Professional Body preparing to launch a new qualification and CPD pathways. As it turns out, interim hires can adeptly address these needs, but isn’t always an obvious solution.”
Goddard added, “So we asked ourselves, how can we streamline the interim process for organisations, allowing them to save time and money while seamlessly filling a skills gap.”
In response, Membership Bespoke developed the Interim Talent Hub—a pioneering online solution that addresses these needs and helps ensure the ongoing success of the membership sector.
Now, with just a few clicks, membership organisations can access a pool of pre-vetted interim professionals with the exact skills and experience they require. What once took months can now be done in minutes.
Anna Christofis, Director of Temporary and Interim Recruitment, commented, “For over 13 years, our dedication to membership-focused clients has provided us with a comprehensive understanding of the shared challenges these organisations face, particularly skills gaps. By connecting them with proven candidates who have successfully addressed similar issues for other clients, we’ve received tremendous positive feedback. With the creation of the Interim Talent Hub, we aim to streamline this process even further, ensuring an even more efficient and effective talent-matching experience.”
Christofis continued, “In our Hub, it’s crucial to recognise that each candidate has a track record of meeting diverse client needs with remarkable adaptability and effectiveness. These professionals are meticulously vetted, ensuring we have a deep understanding of their abilities. Furthermore, to uphold our commitment to our Equity, Diversity, and Inclusivity (EDI) principles, the identities of our interim talent remain confidential until both parties are prepared to engage in direct communication.”
Designed with both innovation and quality in mind, the Interim Talent Hub will change how membership organisations within this dynamic sector access and manage interim talent, ensuring continuity and driving success.
Dennis Howes, Co-Founder of Membership Bespoke, noted, “Prioritising quality over quantity and employing a robust candidate vetting process alongside diligent interim candidate care, we proudly unveil the Interim Talent Hub—the pioneering platform specifically designed for the membership sector.”
Howes added, “Evaluated and approved by some of our clients, candidates, and partners already, our Hub emphasises the significant contributions that temporary workers like interims deliver to various industries and the broader UK economy, especially with the Single Worker Status being a discussion point currently.”
The Interim Talent Hub reflects Membership Bespoke’s commitment to driving innovation and excellence in the membership sector, supported by over 13 years of expertise in recruitment.
Tom Lovell, Advisor to the Membership Bespoke Board, commented, “Talent plays a fundamental role in shaping the future of organisations and industry sectors. Making it easier to engage the best talent in more flexible ways, this innovative Hub is exciting to membership organisations and their member communities alike.”
