Despite this, a survey by HSBC showed that 73% of vehicle manufacturers expects a net increase in the number of full-time employees by the end of this year* .<\/p>\n<p><strong>Competition for talent<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Increased demand for electric vehicles as pressure mounts to phase out fossil fuels, means manufacturers need to rethink skillsets and prioritise job transformation, since their design is focused on digitisation and user experience.<\/p>\n<p>More employees with software design, development and cyber security skills are needed. This means competing with tech companies for that talent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Planning for long-term recovery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By 2030, up to 30% of a vehicle\u2019s total costs are expected to be driven by software and electronics*, but only 9% of the respondents in HSBC\u2019s survey say they prioritise recruiting for software roles. This talent shortfall could hamper the industry\u2019s long-term recovery.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Employee benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With increased competition for talent, we recommend offering attractive packages and continued support for your staff to make your business stand out from the rest.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew Allen, Head of Commercial, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pib-eb.com\/\">PIB Employee Benefits<\/a> comments: \u201cThe digital skills gap is not unique to the automotive industry.
