How we deliver our strategy
We believe that the best people, focused on the most attractive parts of the market, and enabled by highly efficient technology, will deliver outstanding services for clients and candidates.

The best place for the best people
Our aim is to create a workplace where people can learn and grow, be their authentic selves, feel their work is meaningful, have a voice and want to work. We provide the best tools and recognise performance through fair and transparent reward.

We aim to build a highly focused core business through our Five Levers strategy
By prioritising the sweet spots of the recruitment market, our strategic levers will drive long-term growth, increase profitability and enhance resilience. Our Five Levers are: growing our leading positions in the most in-demand future job categories; increasing our focus on higher skilled, higher paid roles; greater focus on resilient and growing industries and markets; building stronger relationships with our clients and candidates; and driving an increased proportion of non-Permanent fees across the business.

Innovate, digitalise and enable
Our aim is to become a technology-enabled leader in the industry, power our people and core business, and drive a superior client and candidate experience. We leverage our global data to provide insight and value, and will further develop innovative AI-driven systems.

How we measure and monitor our progress

We use a combination of four strategic, five financial, and two non-financial alternative performance measures to measure and monitor our performance, in line with our strategic priorities.

All of this is supported and underpinned by our continuous investment in our people, culture and sustainability. Nurturing the best talent and cultivating a diverse, equitable and inclusive culture are the cornerstone of Hays’ success. We look to empower our colleagues to reach their full potential, investing in industry-leading training and development and providing them with an exciting and progressive career path. This, combined with how we equip them with cutting-edge technology and tools, is what enables us to deliver the best service to our clients and candidates, nurturing lifelong relationships and driving our business forward
