Benefits of Hiring an Interim
Interim employees bring several benefits to an organisation, allowing your business to adapt rapidly and easily to workload fluctuations and fulfil individual projects effectively and efficiently. Within food manufacturing, peaks and troughs are common, so Interims can frequently be seen as your "rescue plan". Here are some of the key benefits of hiring an Interim from True North Talent to your food manufacturing business:
Expertise
Interim professionals often have specialised skills and experience in a particular area, allowing them to quickly address specific challenges/ projects within the organisation. It cannot be overstated how valuable this experience is, allowing a business to tap into invaluable amounts of expertise and experience to aid them on a project. Because we consistently talk to Interims, day in, day out, we instantly know who will be a good fit in to your organisation - in terms of skills, expertise and culture.
Cost-saving
Hiring an interim professional can be more cost-effective than hiring a full-time employee. For short-term projects, it is often cheaper and easier to hire interim workers rather than employing permanent staff members with all the associated benefits packages and management overheads, such as holiday pay, NI contributions, pension, sick pay, etc.
Speed
True North Talent can provide the CVs of experienced, referenced Interims within 24 hours. They can be contractually on your site within 48 hours. We achieve this because we are continuously networking within the market - we know Interims' availability, rates, specialisms, ratings etc. Businesses can benefit almost immediately from their work.
Flexibility
Interim professionals can be hired for short-term assignments, enabling you to respond quickly and strategically; they can be extended if required
Interims can provide you with improved efficiency and productivity. This in turn can boost profits, enhance your business reputation and improve job security for permanent members of the team. They bring an outsider's perspective to the organisation, offering fresh ideas and insights that may not be present within the existing team.

HelloFresh vs Gousto…
I’m a sucker for a good discount code, and I’ve seen numerous influencers posting codes lately about HelloFresh and Gousto so I thought I’d give them a try. Although recipe boxes have been around awhile now, I’m totally new to trying them. There’s a few pros and cons I’ve noticed so far.
Why Talent Shortages are More Damaging Than Supply Chain Issues
In the Food and Drink manufacturing industry, we're no strangers to disruption. From Brexit to Covid, global conflicts to raw material shortages, supply chains have taken a beating over the last few years. And while those headlines have dominated, there's a quieter, more dangerous challenge threatening the industry's long term stability: the talent shortage. Yes, a late shipment can throw off your production line. But a missing team leader, technical manager, or site director? That can derail your entire operation.
A Lens whilst Shopping
There was an article this week in the Food Manufacture by Bethan Grylls, titled "Reading food and drink labels with sight loss" - and how food manufacturing companies can make their packaging more inclusive and accessible for those with visual impairments. It is a really insightful article exploring the world of a VIP (Visually Impaired Person) and certainly made me think of scenarios I hadn't thought of before - how are VIPs expected to navigate their way around a supermarket and read food and drink labels. As a coeliac, I wear my glasses on my head in the supermarket as I am constantly trying to read the ever decreasing font size on food labelling to ensure the product I buy is safe for me! I cannot imagine how challenging it must be for VIPs. It will be interesting to see how the technologies currently available and those yet to be invented, can help VIPs and those of us whose eyesight is likely to deteriorate further.
