<li><strong>75% of Lab Leaders highlight automation</strong> as important to driving lab efficiency and innovation&nbsp;</li>
<li><strong>55% say efficiency is key</strong> to innovating process, performance and production &nbsp;</li>
<li><strong>70% flagged concerns</strong> for staff retention; <strong>60% worry about talent acquisition </strong>too&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<p>Lab leaders are concerned about the undermining of lab efficiency and innovation, due to implications of multi-faceted operational, financial and recruitment and retention constraints, according to new insights gathered by Functional Service Provider (FSP) and industry-leading life science &amp; clinical talent specialists, <a href="https://www.srgtalent.com/synergy-scientific-solutions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Synergy and SRG</a>. &nbsp;</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.srgtalent.com/lab-leader-vision-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lab Leader Vision 2025 report</a>, highlighting the thoughts, opinions and experiences based on a survey of over 1000 UK laboratory leaders, reveals that whilst labs remain under pressure to boost efficiency and continue delivering high-value strategic science, they are doing so whilst operating under restrictions caused by the STEM-wide skill gap, tightening budgets and restrictive processes. &nbsp;</p>
<p>The report spotlights a growing emphasis on the power of automation and workflow optimisation, supported by a continued focus on upskilling and people development. Improving efficiency is the key to innovation in labs, according to 55% of lab leaders asked; though with 50% highlighting a current reliance on time-consuming manual processes, there is plenty of work to do. &nbsp;</p>
<p>In response to these challenges, automation was considered critical for future innovation by 28% of lab leaders, with a majority (55%) stating workflow optimisation has a vital role to play &ndash; sentiments reflected by Neil Jacques, Client Solutions Director at SRG: &nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Lab leaders and their teams are the experts in their respective fields, there can be no doubt. But even with their skills, extensive experience and passion, there is only so much they can do &ndash; especially in the face of operational, financial and recruitment challenges and the pressure to remain at the top of the game. AI, automation and workflow optimisation has the power to relieve some of this pressure and enable labs to focus on what they do best &ndash; driving forward the future of science.&rdquo; &nbsp;</p>
<p>Additionally, there are growing concerns regarding the skills and expertise gap within labs; a trend that is unfortunately prevalent across STEM. Lab leaders are not only uneasy about the potential for finding, attracting and hiring the next generation of lab talent, but also retaining the experts behind the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Almost three-quarters of respondents to the Lab Leader Vision 2025 survey are worried about retaining staff, with 60% facing challenges when acquiring talent for labs too. Furthermore, 10% of lab leaders believed that recruiting and retaining talent will be the biggest challenge they&rsquo;ll face in 2025. &nbsp;</p>
<h3>Looking ahead&nbsp;</h3>
<p>Offering detailed commentary, the Lab Leader Vision 2025 report is designed to not only highlight current laboratory challenges, but also open the doorway to potential actions and responses. &nbsp;</p>
<p>For example, the report emphasises the power of growth and future development. 95% of lab leaders believe that prioritising upskilling is not only vital, but easily actionable too, and can have major implications when looking to retain talent and shape workforces who can drive efficiency and achieve lab innovation. &nbsp;</p>
<p>And with technology such as robotics and AI changing the way many industries operate, there is seemingly endless scope to streamline and automate processes, enabling pharmaceutical and biotech experts to focus their efforts on shaping the science of tomorrow. &nbsp;</p>
<p>The insights from this groundbreaking report also highlight the potential power of Synergy and its laboratory management solutions &ndash; developed and delivered to support business continuity, continued improvement and increase the time a lab and its people have to focus on their core science strategies and projects.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Carol Jennings, Operations Director, Synergy Scientific Solutions commented: &ldquo;This is an exciting release for Synergy and SRG, highlighting our dedication to &ndash; and support of &ndash; laboratories and their leaders in the face of a multitude of current and future challenges. &nbsp;</p>

Innovation thrives in labs, but operational, financial and staffing hurdles persist, Synergy by SRG finds 

<ul>
<li><strong>A slowdown in compensation increases</strong> eases the pain for employers but the relief may not last long</li>
<li><strong>A majority of workers plan</strong> to change jobs this year, with an overwhelming number of full-time, in-office talent looking to make the switch</li>
<li><strong>Hybrid and remote work policie</strong>s remain unsettled, with job flexibility highly valued</li>
<li><strong>Workforce diversity remains elusive</strong>, but workers say they see progress occurring</li>
<li><strong>AI continues to be a central discussion</strong>, and results show that AI has already made workers more efficient</li>
</ul>
<p>Salaries in the UK for life sciences workers have risen exponentially compared with peers in other parts of the world, but average pay still trails that of North American and European counterparts, a new survey conducted by SRG and New Scientist Jobs reveals. Since 2022, average salaries have risen 11.1% in the UK to &pound;57,725, a rate nearly three times faster than in North America. Even so, this is still lower than the average pay in comparative markets, according to the 2024 Global Talent Trends and Insights report.</p>
<p>Among all life sciences workers, North American respondents averaged $87,874 in annual pay, the highest ever surveyed by the publication. The average in Europe is &euro;65,070. Those in the engineering field are the highest paid, with an average salary of $98,720 in the U.S. and &pound;68,177 in the UK. Other highly-paid jobs can be found in pharmaceutical, biotech, and medtech fields.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Pay for life sciences specialists had jumped tremendously in the two years following the COVID outbreak, but growth has since slowed, with the market normalizing and inflation retreating from recent highs. Moreover, wage inflation has subdued in light of a broad reduction in hiring and increased layoffs in life sciences positions.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;This is good news for companies struggling to rein in increasing workforce costs but a challenge for talent in search of better opportunities and pay,&rdquo; said Andrew Turner, UK Managing Director of SRG. &ldquo;However, with talent scarcity caused in part by a structural deficiency in the labor market, this balance may shift again with an improvement in the global economy. Regardless of where we are in the economic cycle, employers need to focus on attracting and retaining the best and most in-demand talent.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Data from the survey, conducted with more than 4,000 scientists and STEM professionals from December 2023 through February 2024, indicated cautious optimism about the future. One-third of North American respondents expect their budgets to increase this year. However, job mobility may rise as more than 60% say they expect to or will change roles in 2024.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Such sentiments reflected unmet needs for job flexibility, higher pay, and health and wellness benefits. Workers in North America were more likely to say they will change jobs this year than counterparts in the UK and Europe (61% vs. 51%). Job satisfaction levels among life science specialists have been historically higher than other occupations, and more than two-thirds of those surveyed said they remain happy in their roles. Nevertheless, the high percentage of people seeking new opportunities may be a wake-up call for employers to do more to incentivize people to stay.</p>
<p>One of the reasons for workers&rsquo; strong desire for new opportunities is the unsettled debate over remote and hybrid working arrangements. An overwhelming majority (90%) of those who are on-site every day say they plan to switch jobs. Furthermore, two-thirds say they prefer a hybrid schedule, but just 40% currently have this benefit. As executive leaders push for greater in-office attendance, this insistence may diminish their appeal as employers of choice.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Whether it&rsquo;s life sciences or the IT sector, policies and practices regarding hybrid and remote working must remain agile and responsive to the needs of the workforce,&rdquo; said Patrick Stedman, Senior Vice President of SRG North America. &ldquo;Leaders understandably are pushing for more people to return to the workplace, and their concerns around innovation and accountability are certainly valid. They need to, however, weigh the impact on retention, engagement, and satisfaction. Does being in the office daily lead to greater productivity? Each company must do their homework to make this determination.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The 2024 Global Talent Trends and Insights report closely examines remote work and many other critical issues facing life sciences human capital leaders. New Scientist Jobs has been tracking the salaries of professional scientists for more than 20 years, and results from the latest report show that wages, despite a recent slowdown, remain high compared with many other occupations. The publication also provides geographic breakdowns of salaries in various science hubs across Europe, the UK, and North America.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The data also tracks the chronic pay gap between men and women scientists, with the differences ranging as high as 19% in the UK to 14% in Europe to 8% in North America. Progress toward pay equity has been inconsistent over the years but trending in the right direction. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Additionally, the report examines employers' progress in achieving a more diverse and equitable workplace. A standout finding is that black workers account for just 4% of life sciences specialists in the UK, compared with 11% in North America. However, 40% of those surveyed in the UK said they have witnessed efforts within their organization to be more diverse.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Other findings in the Global Talent Trends and Insights report examine people&rsquo;s priorities when considering an employer, the skills they need to keep their careers future-proof, and their outlook on AI and its impact on jobs and the future of work. Despite fears that the technology will lead to large job losses, most survey respondents say they don&rsquo;t believe they will be made redundant. Rather, they believe AI will make their jobs easier, with 60% saying AI has<br>already make them more efficient. An even larger majority (78%) say they will be even more so in the future.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Pro tips for employers to consider as they strategize on workforce planning, learning and development, talent attraction and retention, internal mobility, and other critical human capital issues:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Closely track and mirror competitive wage levels and prevailing benefit offerings at a time when most people are expressing a strong desire to change jobs &nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Regularly survey workers and develop actionable plans to mitigate growing dissatisfaction or unmet needs of people</li>
<li>Build on a culture of inclusion and equity to ensure workers are fully engaged, can bring their best selves to their jobs, and maximize collaboration with other team members</li>
<li>Identify the skills needed today, and in the future, and leverage this insight to map the learning journey for every employee as a way to address the skills gap &nbsp;&nbsp;</li>

<h2>What are the core pillars of a managed service programme or contingent workforce solution?</h2><p>&nbsp;</p><p>By using a vendor management system, a robust managed service programme provides complete oversight into the status of each contingent worker at your company &mdash; optimising contingent workforce management and driving performance through people, processes, and technology.</p><details><summary>The core components of a managed service programme include:</summary><ul><li>Management of the non-permanent workforce (timesheets, payroll, etc.)</li><li>Qualified pools of talented candidates</li><li>An efficient recruitment process</li><li>Supplier management</li><li>Contract management</li><li>Candidate selection</li><li>Data-driven analysis</li><li>Invoice management</li><li>Frequent progress reports</li><li>Business reviews</li><li>Payrolling</li><li>HR management</li><li>Metrics dashboard</li></ul></details>

<h2>What is a Managed Service Provider (MSP)?</h2><p>&nbsp;</p><p>A managed service provider (MSP) or contingent workforce solution (CWS), manages the temporary worker recruitment for an organisation and is responsible for the end-to-end management of the contingent workforce - from supplier management and strategic workforce planning to contractor care and offboarding.</p><p>In the recruitment industry, the term &lsquo;MSP&rsquo; can refer to either a managed service programme OR a managed service provider. The difference between the two is that a managed service programme is a contingent workforce solution (CWS), while a managed service provider is a specialist who delivers this solution.</p><p>In other words, &lsquo;managed service programme&rsquo; and &lsquo;contingent workforce solution&rsquo; can be used interchangeably to describe the service offered by a managed service provider like SRG. To avoid further confusion, we&rsquo;ll stick to full terms from here on out.</p>

<h2>What are the benefits of a managed service provider or contingent workforce solution?</h2><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In an increasingly competitive contingent talent market, turning to a managed service programme brings several key benefits to a business.</p><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Control</strong></summary><p>Hiring managers can easily acquire strong talent thanks to streamlined, standardised processes across all suppliers &mdash; driving down time-to-hire.</p></details><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Visibility</strong></summary><p>You&rsquo;ll gain oversight of the entire contingent workforce via a tailored VMS that provides regular reporting and a clear audit trail.</p></details><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Compliance and risk mitigation.</strong></summary><p>&nbsp;With external experts managing all legislative and governance requirements, you&rsquo;ll be brought up to speed on compliance best practices and ensure your business is fully compliant.</p></details><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Supply chain efficiency</strong></summary><p>By running all contractor and supplier engagement through a single trusted provider, you&rsquo;ll significantly reduce administrative burden.</p></details><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Agility</strong></summary><p>With the experience of a managed service provider to call upon, you can better respond to market shifts and improve efficiencies &mdash; making your organisation more agile in the process.</p></details><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Cost savings</strong></summary><p>A managed service provider will secure substantial cost savings through exercises such as supply base reduction and staffing benchmarking.</p></details><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Scalability</strong></summary><p>Working with an extensive supplier base, a managed service provider can find you alternative sources of talent when your supply chain fails to deliver &mdash; enabling you to scale your programme up or down according to your immediate business needs.</p></details><details class="mce-accordion"><summary><strong>Governance</strong></summary><p>Ensuring internal mandating of rates, compliance, and processes.</p></details><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Utilising a managed service provider is a win-win for any business with a sizeable temporary workforce. By building relationships with your business users to understand the ins and outs of your organisation, a dedicated team of industry experts manages your suppliers, sources top talent, and drives best practices on your behalf.</p>

<p>One of the most effective ways a business can successfully manage its contingent workforce is by calling on the expertise of a third-party solutions provider &mdash; particularly one with a dedicated account management team, an optimised vendor management system (VMS), and a focus on control and cost savings.</p>

Managed Service Provider &amp; Contingent Workforce Solutions

<h2>Is an MSP solution right for my business?</h2><p>&nbsp;</p><p>While contingent working has grown at a phenomenal pace in recent years, finding top contingent talent with the most critical skills is an increasingly costly and time-consuming process. With contingent workers (ie. non-employees) making up 40% of the workforce, being able to attract the best talent is crucial.</p><p>If your organisation has a medium-to-large contingent workforce, a managed service programme is the ideal solution. Whether you&rsquo;re looking to improve visibility, compliance,&nbsp;or control, or simply want a fresh recruitment strategy with a new partner, we can build a solution that works for your business.</p><p>Managed service provider solutions don&rsquo;t work for every business, particularly those without sizeable contingent workforces. If you&rsquo;re a scaleup or a startup with a smaller contingent workforce, one of our other recruitment services may prove a better fit.</p>
