Expert in UKAA Roundtable: Building a Workforce for Generation Rent

On Wednesday 15th May, 2019, industry experts and opinion-forming panellists from across the Build to Rent (BTR) sector attended the inaugural ‘UKAA Roundtable: Building a Workforce for Generation Rent’ event.

Discussion points were:

• With completed build to rent units set to more than quadruple nationally over the next few years, how can we ensure we staff these sites to provide the service levels required whilst providing ROI to investors?

• What innovative approaches are there to building a successful workforce for Generation Rent?

• Forecast of ‘talent market’ conditions 18-24 months from now, and the risks/threats that come with that

• Appetite for candidates with build to rent experience will be huge; how will you retain and motivate your staff?
