Giganeer : Fixing the engineering skills gap
The effects of our ageing workforce is overwhelming the talent pool, emptying it, and at an accelerating rate!
For the last 100 years, employment convention has laid down that you are employed till you retire.. But does it have to be this way? Just for a moment, if we were to reconsider the total addressable labor market as the % of the total population that would like to work in some capacity, rather than simply defined by upper age limit – Restructuring and managing later-life working is possible.
Imagine fully flexible, future-facing modern disruptive model of work. A model where remote and hybrid working practices all come together to empower time-served engineers to continue to work, deep into later life, within a safe professional hybrid freelancing space. An environment where an engineer could take control of their own work / life balance and could choose to work as often, or as little as they wished.
A freelance workspace built around efficient industrial delivery and where mentorship of the future workforce of undergraduates & apprentices is designed into the very fabric of the model.
A place where new engineers could shadow the best that industry has to offer whilst getting early access to a range of key industry verticals.
