We put the spotlight on Carol Jennings, Director of Scientific Services – Synergy by SRG, to hear about the career journey of one of our inspirational Women in Leadership. 

Women in Leadership at SRG: Carol Jennings’ Story 

<p>At SRG, we are proud to have inspirational Women in Leadership at the heart of everything we do.</p>
<p>In this blog, we&rsquo;re putting the spotlight one of our most fabulous females, Alison Jones &ndash; Operations Director at SRG, as she tells us a bit more about her story and career journey so far and offers advice to those following in her footsteps.</p>
<h2>Alison, tell us a bit about your career journey to where you are today</h2>
<p>When I left school at 16, I joined a commercial apprenticeship. By 17 I was in my first role in recruitment &ndash; an industry I have been in ever since.</p>
<p>I&rsquo;ve been in Operational Leadership in some shape or form since the mid-90s; finally making it to a Director role in my late 40s after achieving unprecedented growth across my teams.&nbsp;</p>
<p>After stints in professional service and engineering recruitment, I joined SRG in 2014 wanting to take on something different, highly technical and very niche. Science really appealed to me, and I have to say it has not disappointed so far &ndash; the work our customers do is never boring and is often mind-blowing.</p>
<h2>Where did your passion for science and recruitment stem from?</h2>
<p>I&rsquo;m not a scientist, but I&rsquo;ve a natural inquisitiveness and love of learning. This, coupled with my passion for finding truths, whether in nature or human behaviours, has meant I&rsquo;ve naturally grown passionate about science too.</p>
<p>As for recruitment, well, it is a people business. And people fascinate me.&nbsp;</p>
<h2>What part of your role as Operational Director excites and drives you the most?</h2>
<p>Being able to collaborate with people every day, dismantling each component of potential problems and then solving them together is deeply satisfying.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Watching my managers and their teams grow in their roles is my favourite part of my job. I am a Servant Leadership Advocate, and as part of that my role is to work for my people so they can shine and provide their customers with the service they deserve.</p>
<h2>Who has influenced you most during your career journey so far?</h2>
<p>Well, I am lucky enough to have already had a long, exciting and rewarding career, and been fortunate to work with &ndash; and for &ndash; and number of incredible people and role models.</p>
<p>But above them all, one has always stood out as a beacon of inspiration to me, in all aspects of life, not just my career &ndash; my wonderful Father. Whilst he is sadly no longer with us, and sorely missed, his words are with me every day.</p>
<p>He always told me I could do anything if I worked hard and believed in myself. And he was right. I&rsquo;m thankful to have had that confidence instilled into me from an early age; it had a significant impact on me becoming the woman I am today.</p>
<h2>How do you balance the demands of your professional and personal life?</h2>
<p>At home there&rsquo;s me, my husband and our (very needy!) rescue cat, plus a huge variety of friendship groups to keep-up-to-date with. I feel very privileged to have that, but balancing home with work can be a challenge.</p>
<p>I believe strongly in the power of prioritising health and wellbeing, especially for staying energised for work. My top tips are to get to bed at a good time and get plenty of sleep, eat well and prioritise personal activities that benefit physical and mental health. Running, for example, has a big role in this for me &ndash; at the time of writing this, I am currently training for my 7th marathon!</p>
<p>What I&rsquo;ve found really helps is finding a way &ndash; and I know this can be tricky &ndash; to not say yes to everything, in personal and work life. And I make sure I have diary time blocked out to drop the unexpected in and to think and reflect.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t get me wrong; sometimes none of this works but mostly it does! If I can make it work for 80% of the time, I&rsquo;m happy.</p>
<h2>What do you think is key to inspiring and influencing teams and colleagues around you?</h2>
<p>By being highly visible, working amongst people in my teams, being transparent, authentic and showing vulnerability. To me, they are such important traits for people, in any situation and environment, to have and show.</p>
<p>I don&rsquo;t always get it right. But I always remember that it is ok as a leader to not have all the answers immediately. It is also more than ok to admit that to yourself and your team.</p>
<p>How the leader behaves shapes everything else, so it&rsquo;s important to be your whole, most authentic self and help create an environment in which others can do the same.</p>
<h2>What advice would you give to fellow Women in Leadership and females who aspire be one?</h2>
<p>Be curious, don&rsquo;t be afraid to ask for help, seek understanding of what is required to progress and then apply yourself to the task in hand.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ignore your little voice if it tries to derail you. We all have one; it&rsquo;s if and when we listen to it that counts! And make time to hear the quieter people &ndash; everyone has a voice.</p>
<p>Work with people brighter than you, learn active listening and don&rsquo;t be afraid to challenge the status quo.</p>
<p>And if you see someone who you aspire to be like, ask them to mentor you. I promise you that you will both benefit from the experience.</p>
<h2>What do you believe are the most important qualities for a successful leader?</h2>
<p>The ability to create a meaningful vision and not only bring people on the journey with you, but ensure they feel like a key part of where it takes us.</p>
<p>As for specific traits and qualities, everyone is different of course, but to me emotional intelligence, adaptability, decisiveness, customer focus and curiosity are at the heart of everything I do as a leader.</p>
<h2>This year&rsquo;s International Women&rsquo;s Day theme is #AccelerateAction. What does this mean to you?</h2>
<p>Put simply we need to do more and work more quickly to shut down gender inequality.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Equality cannot wait, we must work together to do better and progress women&rsquo;s rights and empowerment now, and into the future.</p>
<h2>Finally, can you share a memorable experience or achievement from your career that has significantly impacted your approach to leadership?</h2>
<p>Joining SRG and excelling despite not coming from a science background has been huge for me.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Imposter syndrome loomed particularly large initially, but I overcame it, was successful and &ndash; whilst there have been many challenges along the way &ndash; have flourished since.&nbsp; My teams are high performing, inclusive and diverse, this makes me happy and extremely proud.</p>

Operations Director Alison Jones – one of many incredible female leaders at SRG – tells us about her journey to becoming a Woman in Leadership. 

Women in Leadership at SRG: Alison Jones’ Story

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In a dynamic and rapidly evolving world of work, how can employers of STEM talent attract and retain the best people in a competitive labor market? Contrary to popular belief, good salaries alone won&rsquo;t do it. Rather, companies need to do a better job of offering purpose and other compelling benefits to candidates, according to a panel of work experts who recently spoke on an SRG <a name="_Int_mCIji8nm"></a>webinar. The event focused on the findings of New Scientist&rsquo;s Global Talent Trends &amp; Insights report, which surveyed the sentiments of 4,000 life sciences professionals across the UK, US, and Europe. <a href="https://www.srgtalent.com/us/blog/careers-in-life-sciences"><span style="text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Discover </span><span lang="EN" style="mso-ansi-language: EN; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Who Has the Best Pay in Life Sciences</span></a>.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Facing today&rsquo;s climate of uncertainty, life sciences companies are challenged to become more agile and competitive, and <a name="_Int_vtPlgZfI"></a>it&rsquo;s clear that talent is the lever to make this happen, according to the panelists. Success, however, depends on employers acquiring and <span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">utilizing<strong> </strong></span>talent in cost-effective, impactful ways that achieve milestones more quickly and consistently, whether that&rsquo;s developing a new blockbuster drug, a new medical device, or a diagnostic test.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">&ldquo;There is pressure to do more with less, but there is a real focus on that speed of getting innovation to market as soon as possible. And I really do feel that now more than ever leaders <a name="_Int_k2LQIvDR"></a>have to demonstrate a real level of adaptability and flexibility in everything that <a name="_Int_cgOn7FNf"></a>they're doing,&rdquo; according to panelist Philippa Clark, Senior Client Manager with SRG in the UK.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Clark explained that with investments in the UK life sciences sector remaining strong, employers increasingly turn to contingent talent to get work done more cost-effectively and efficiently. This has led to growing interest in statement of work resources, <a href="https://www.srgtalent.com/us/business-solutions/direct-hire"><span style="text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">direct sourcing</span></a> of flexible talent, and other work arrangements to help medtech and drug manufacturers drive revenue growth. And the pressure to meet work goals is not isolated <a name="_Int_TzmnGWmD"></a>to the UK and Europe. In fact, one-third of those surveyed by New Scientist in North America say they expect their department to receive budget increases by the end of 2025. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN">&nbsp;</span></p>
<h2 class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span lang="EN">Demand for talent unabated</span></strong></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">With <a href="https://www.srgtalent.com/us/blog/pay-for-life-science-workers-rises-fastest-in-the-uk-but-still-lags-behind-north-america-and-europe">spending anticipated</a> in the near future, demand for STEM talent will <a name="_Int_HWAmTVj1"></a>likely remain sustained worldwide. One reason is that during the pandemic, a disproportionate amount of research went to treating COVID, leading to deprioritization of other projects, according to Justin Mullins, a panelist on the <a name="_Int_faaOO6WJ"></a>webinar and Consultant Editor at New Scientist. He pointed out that when the pandemic was over, many life sciences companies faced a backlog of projects. This led to a surge in demand for talent, and that appetite for resources has not diminished.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Mullins pointed out that UK life sciences companies have since stepped up research and development work and appear poised to innovate more quickly. The sector has overcome the backlog and &ldquo;turned into a streamlined, forward-thinking agile agency, which is really accelerating the way in which Innovation can be brought to market,&rdquo; he said, pointing out the post-COVID &ldquo;bounce&rdquo; for businesses has also benefited from greater economic and political stability recently. With the UK&rsquo;s recent elections now over, he said companies can better focus on growth, which will further accelerate the sector&rsquo;s growing need for talent.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">This trend, however, will put additional pressure on talent scarcity. Last year, salaries in life sciences rose markedly, especially in the UK, where the average pay rose more than 11%, according to New Scientist&rsquo;s research. Growth reached 3.9% in North America and 3.4% in Europe &mdash; figures all above the average wage growth for all jobs in those regions. At the same time, 60% of all workers surveyed said they planned to change jobs this year, further challenging employers to acquire and retain <a name="_Int_vGs5gESc"></a>great talent.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">How can life sciences <a name="_Int_fE48oPgB"></a>employers address this growing problem? As panelist and SRG US Senior Vice President Patrick Stedman noted, companies must offer more than just competitive compensation to acquire, motivate, and retain their best people. In fact, the Talent Trends &amp; Insights report found that 62% of STEM professionals ranked wages lower than other employment benefits as the reason for joining a company. Stedman said today&rsquo;s workforce is focused on the values of an employer, its purpose, and how it treats its people. Specifically, many workers want assurances that they <a name="_Int_EGX5JaSQ"></a>work for a diverse and inclusive organization.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">&ldquo;If you look at the STEM portfolio, specifically within life sciences and clinical, <a name="_Int_kmMLLUOe"></a>we're <a name="_Int_Km8s5b2c"></a>a very diverse population so <a name="_Int_YmicE7sN"></a>it's extremely important that we are keeping at the forefront. <a name="_Int_hA7Gzz5A"></a>It's a catalyst in all these organizations to understand how important it is to promote inclusivity and diversity &mdash; promoting it in a way that <a name="_Int_WTl2CZN0"></a>it's openly discussed and that we're in a position where people are comfortable with understanding the mission, vision, and value of these organizations,&rdquo; Stedman noted.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN">&nbsp;</span></p>
<h2 class="MsoNormal"><strong style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">AI and the urgency for skilling</span></strong></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">Another priority for STEM talent is their need for upskilling. With AI proliferating across the life sciences industry, professionals increasingly need training and development to stay current with technology. And <a name="_Int_VAsB5PN4"></a>it&rsquo;s not just their hard skills that scientists seek to enhance; Talent Trends &amp; Insights research found that the competencies most people want to improve are cognitive ones, such as critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and adaptability. In the AI era, helping people adjust to the changing nature of work will be critical to long-term organizational success, according to Tracy Monsour, Senior Vice President of Marketing for the Impellam <a name="_Int_mgUfE9mI"></a>Group and a member of the <a name="_Int_uN68FDUX"></a>webinar panel.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">&ldquo;The topic of upskilling and reskilling is going to be one that we're talking about for a very long time,&rdquo; Monsour said, especially as artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming how medtech and pharma companies operate. &ldquo;AI is necessary for skill sets, in terms of advancing research, development production and manufacturing of the products that impact the greater life sciences industry.&rdquo;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN">Indeed, half of those surveyed say AI will change the nature of their job completely, with a majority saying the technology already makes them more efficient at work.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">In what other ways will </span><span lang="EN"><a href="https://www.srgtalent.com/us/blog/ai-transforming-life-sciences"><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">AI transform the future of work</span></a></span><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">? That remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: investing in people will continue to be a winning strategy in the future, whether <a name="_Int_tNmyHsKI"></a>that&rsquo;s through upskilling and reskilling, raising engagement through purpose and value, enhancing human capabilities with technology, or a combination of all these initiatives. The key to unlocking workforce potential requires insights and understanding of people&rsquo;s expectations of work and the key motivators that resonate with STEM professionals. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN">&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">To better understand the sentiments of life sciences professionals, request your copy of the <a href="https://www.srgtalent.com/us/salary-survey">2024 Talent Trends &amp; Insights Report</a> by New Scientists Jobs and SRG.

<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>
