What are hiring managers actually prioritising right now? Expectations haven’t dropped, but the way decisions are being made has changed. Hiring is more considered, more outcome-focused and far more specific than it was even a year ago. From a stronger focus on proven impact to increased demand for specialist skillsets, the definition of a “strong” candidate is shifting across tech, data, product and transformation environments. In this blog, we break down what we’re seeing in the market, how hiring expectations are evolving and what this means for both hiring teams and candidates. 📖 Read the full blog: https://lnkd.in/e8ZanCvZ #WeAreOrbis #HiringTrends #TalentStrategy

Rushing a hire might solve a short term problem, but it often creates a bigger one. 📊 60% of hiring managers say they’ve made a hire they later regretted due to time pressure 📊 83% of employers say a bad hire has negatively impacted their business We’re seeing more teams step back and rethink how they approach hiring, not by slowing down, but by being more deliberate with how they structure it. Using contract talent to keep delivery moving while creating space to make better long term decisions. If you’re under pressure to hire, it’s worth asking whether speed is actually the priority, or if it’s about getting the right expertise in at the right time. 📖 Read more: https://lnkd.in/e7ZXqz2K #WeAreOrbis #HiringStrategy #HiringTrends #TalentStrategy

Last week, our Group CEO Craig attended the Spread a Smile Insurance Dinner at Uncommon Holborn. Spread a Smile is a charity focused on bringing joy and distraction to seriously ill children during long hospital stays, supporting both the children and their families through what is often an incredibly difficult time. Supporting initiatives like this is something that matters to us at Orbis. It’s not just something we talk about, it’s something we actively engage with across the business, from leadership through to the wider team. Thank you to Richard Reggel for the invite, it was a great evening bringing people together across the industry in support of a genuinely important cause.

Hiring fast doesn’t always mean hiring right. In a market where timelines are tight and teams are under pressure, speed often feels like the priority. But in reality, rushing hiring decisions can create more problems than it solves. We’re seeing more businesses take a step back and rethink how they approach hiring altogether, using contract talent to maintain momentum while making more considered long term decisions. In our latest blog, we explore why this shift is happening and what it means for how teams are being built. 📖 Read more: https://lnkd.in/emqGYQmF #WeAreOrbis #HiringStrategy #TalentStrategy #HiringTrends

Orbis Ski Trip 2026 ⛷️ Last week, we brought together some of our top performers for a few days out in Morzine to properly celebrate what was a huge H2. Craig, Sai, Brooke, Thai and Ben headed out to the Alps for a well-earned break, with a few days focused on switching off and celebrating their success. The itinerary covered skiing across Portes du Soleil, après at La Folie Douce, group dinners in the mountains and time at Chalet Sandjeman. Trips like this are a big part of how we recognise exceptional performance at Orbis. The work that goes into consistently delivering at a high level doesn’t go unnoticed and it’s important to us that we take the time to celebrate it properly. A great few days with a great group, looking forward to seeing who makes the next one 🤍 #OrbisGroup #SkiTrip #IncentiveTrip #Morzine

Not long ago, roles like LLMOps Engineer or Human-AI Enablement Partner weren’t even being discussed. As organisations continue to invest in AI capability, modern data infrastructure and cloud platforms, entirely new job titles are starting to appear across engineering, product and data teams.
