Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll get...

Guidance for HR teams in financial services hiring across the EU on a major, under-the-radar legislation change that's reshaping 'fit and proper' compliance.

Building an actionable business case for AI and automation, and implementing it seamlessly into your role — whilst getting your business on-board.

A step-by-step playbook for improving your global hiring, building policies that work across borders, and creating a hiring strategy fit for 2027.

Why join this webinar?

Hiring across borders, especially in financial services, has never been more complicated for HR teams. As if the rise of fake candidates, pressure to automate everything, and ensuring cohesive practises across regions wasn't enough to worry about, there's a new EU 'fit and proper' legislation coming under a shared scheme from EBA, ESMA, and EIOPA. Feeling overwhelmed? We've got you.

Together with experts from iCIMS and MasterCard, we'll sift through the noise, untangle how you can actually use AI for good, and feel more confident in your cross-border hiring. You’ll leave with:

A playbook for building a brilliant global HR team. It'll cover how to build policies fit for 2027, stay up-to-date with compliance, and keep global teams on the same page (without losing sight of the day-to-day).

How you can stop just advocating to use AI and start building with it instead. We'll look at what AI for HR actually is, how you can work cross-functionally to build a stellar business case, and where it has the most impact.

Guidance for HR teams hiring across the EU on the upcoming legislation change. It’s one of the biggest updates to financial services hiring that no one’s talking about, and it has serious implications for how UK firms recruit across the EU.
