The UK contingent staffing industry experienced contraction in 2020 due to the pandemic, and the use of contingent staffing plummeted throughout the country. As the industry began to recover in 2021, there was accelerated growth in the second half of the year and demand for contingent talent surged due to a rapid rise in talent demand-supply gap, labor pyramid distortion, and the Great Resignation. Providers tapped into this opportunity and improved their sourcing capabilities to meet enterprises’ increasing demands. In addition, domains such as DE&I, upskilling and reskilling, and managed services gained prominence and became the key differentiating factors among providers.
