creating your employee value proposition.

Louise’s career has seen her working in recruitment focused roles for the likes of Google, McKeeson and Belkin. Earlier this year, after several years and several late night discussions, with her best friend and experienced recruiter, Lucy Wright, they decided to form their own recruitment services company, Four Talent.

Their work sees them working with lots of SMEs helping them to take their recruitment to the next level. A key piece of this puzzle is helping organisations to define their EVP (employee value proposition). It is this challenge that Louise will be talking on, helping you to understand:

  • What is an EVP and why do we need one?
  • The EVP and Employer Brand – how do they fit together?
  • What are the key principles to consider when developing your EVP
  • The 7 steps to build and land your EVP effectively
