THE RESOURCE OF FLEXIBLE TALENT FOR
ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING FIRMS

With the generational, economic, and technological shifts that have happened over the last decade or so, work culture has changed. Across many industries, workers are no longer taking for granted the long-term employment path where you learn a skill set and work for a lifetime at one company. This is also happening in the architecture-engineering-construction industry.

While this may still be an attractive path for many to pursue, the economic realities, the constantly changing landscape of work, and the technological advancements that now enable people to work from anywhere have made a big impact on workers’ and employers’ options and choices. To adapt, employers must be flexible in their hiring, and human resources departments have more work cut out for them to make sure they operate smart talent management practices.

In engineering, architecture, and construction, we are not exempt from these changes at all, and sourcing and hiring the right talent has been a costly business, with over 40 Billion US Dollars spent industry-wide on recruitment solutions, both digital and traditional.

WE BELIEVE IN A REMOTE FUTURE FOR WORK
Long before COVID-19 caused us all to work from home, we were advocates of remote and flexible work. As engineers
and architects ourselves, we saw that we could do so much of our work remotely. We were designing buildings and
infrastructure for projects in other countries, and coordinating efforts through online tools, but all from within the office setting.
We realized that 95% of our work didn’t require physical proximity to others all the time, and that working remotely
was a culture that could be built at a company. But once you go down that rabbit hole, you open up to a world of possibilities.
Distance is no longer a barrier to collaboration on projects. With the rising trend of the gig economy and freelancing,
which is estimated to overcome 50% of the US workforce by the year 2027, we think a lot more of us are going to be
freelancers and small business owners who collaborate together on projects.
The future of work is all about productivity and flexibility, and we’re right here by your side.
