The PPMA, Matrix-SCM and Local Government Staff Commission all came together on the 2nd of October in Northern Ireland to host a free Brexit Hackathon. A quick-fire, high pressure, and high-intensity ideas session aiming to produce action learning to help us collectively deliver tangible recommendations that tackle workforce related Brexit challenges. The event was a great success, with an emphasis on collaboration, speed and practical outcomes.

As part of the PPMA’s research programme where Brexit is one of the key topics, we will be releasing research with supporting case studies, videos and blogs. In addition to the discussions around Brexit, Chris Grimes asked attendees on the day about their top pain points in their current recruitment process.
