Searching for CRM talent before the end of the year? Heading into H2, it’s important to move quickly and confidently to secure top talent to meet targets and deliver results for your end of year goals.
To support employers with their hiring efforts, we have recently updated our 2023 How to Hire report with all of our learnings from the year so far. This is a must-read for anyone recruiting CRM Managers before Christmas.
Recruitment was unusually frantic in 2022. The majority of candidates – from CRM Executives to Heads of CRM – were spoiled for choice with the number of job openings on the market. This year, however, we have seen businesses scale back their hiring plans, and more candidates on the market actively looking for opportunities.
Many will believe that this makes recruitment easier for businesses, however there are a number of new challenges that they must face:
If you’re facing similar struggles, our How to Hire report can help you. Refreshed with new information for overcoming these challenges in H2, including up to date salaries for permanent and temporary CRM jobs.
Our data showed a 20% increase in salaries between 2021 and 2022. Salaries haven't dropped this year, with candidates citing salary as the most important element to consider when searching for a new role. This is reflected in our data, with salaries increasing by just 2% in the first half of 2023.

If you’re hiring this side of Christmas, you should consider contract recruitment. Permanent hires take time to settle into their new jobs, with onboarding and training taking anywhere from 8 to 24 weeks. This means that time is quickly running out to make permanent additions to your team who will be able to contribute to your end of year objectives.
Contract hires, however, are accustomed to getting started in a new role with little training. To find out more about making temporary hires, check out our 2023 contract recruitment guide.
