The majority of companies surveyed indicated that they will be increasing their automotive professionals headcount in 2014. However, for organisations the war for talent only becomes more competitive! A positive outlook in 2014 www.aspiriti.com Aspiriti Automotive Recruitment: 2014 Salary Guide 6 Sourcing and attracting high performing employees with automotive industry experience is always one of the greatest challenge for organisations. Automotive dealerships continue to fight for the best experienced professionals in a competitive and limited talent pool. One of the greatest challenges highlighted by companies was finding quality experienced automotive professionals with specific or relevant brand experience. High performing and experienced candidates will more often than not have more than one new career opportunity to consider. Candidates are not just attracted to a company by high salaries. Other factors such as the company brand, company reputation, company culture, product reputation and management team all play an important role in the candidate’s decision making process. The war for talent continues 70% 73% 82% “It’s a challenge to find quality automotive professionals to join our business...” “It’s a challenge to find quality automotive professionals with our specific brand experience to join our business…” “It’s a challenge to attract quality automotive professionals to our business...” www.aspiriti.com Aspiriti Automotive Recruitment: 2014 Salary Guide AGREE AGREE AGREE 7 73% 73% 72% Retention, Salary Pressure and Nationalisaiton “Retaining key staff is crucial to our business survival...” “One of the major challenges in attracting and retaining staff in our business is increases in salary packages…” You are successful in attracting talented staff, but can you keep them? The cost of an incorrect or a replacement hire can be as much as 50% of the employees annual salary, without even taking into consideration the loss of revenue or other productivity factors. It makes sense then that we need to retain our talented employees for business success. Salary increases throughout the Gulf Region are a concern with the majority companies, not only for the profit margin pressures, but also for the greater challenges to retain key staff. If your employees feel that they are being paid below market rates for their level of experience, then there is a chance that they will start looking at other career opportunities. Every Gulf country would like to have more Nationals employed in their business. The pool of talented local candidates with automotive industry experience is small compared with the total automotive workforce. Saudi Arabia (75%), Qatar (100%) and Oman (100%) are the countries that view Nationalisation targets as a significant challenge. 74% “Another challenge that we face is adhering to Nationalisation targets set by the Government...” www.aspiriti.com Aspiriti Automotive Recruitment: 2014 Salary Guide AGREE AGREE AGREE 8 “A major business challenge for our auto- motive business is the uncertainty of the global financial markets…” “Fluctuations in overseas currencies are a concern for our business as well…” “The global financial markets could have an effect on the manufacturing costs and our profit margins...” In 2014, the general consensus is that the GCC economy is somewhat protected from the uncertainty of overseas markets. However, despite this, fluctuations in overseas currencies and increases in manufacturing costs are considered to be major influences on the GCC Automotive industry. China, as the largest market worldwide, and an increased locally produced product range, is making an aggressive push into all automotive markets globally. However, the majority of companies are still not seeing the entrance of these brands as a major threat to their existing business. Customer loyalty and repeat business is considered to be a major focus for a large number of automotive dealerships in the GCC. The majority of dealerships view this as a major business challenge facing the automotive industry in 2014. Supply of vehicles into some markets continues to be a challenge facing some automotive businesses in some locations. Demand from high growth markets such as China and North America can affect supply lead times. “The competition of Chinese brands is a major threat to our business...” “Customer loyalty and repeat business is a major business challenge facing the automotive industry...” “Keeping up supply to our customer demand is a major business challenge...” Influences on the GCC Auto Industry www.aspiriti.com Aspiriti Automotive Recruitment: 2014 Salary Guide AGREE AGREE AGREE AGREE AGREE AGREE 36% 66% 64% 7% 81% 65% 9 www.aspiriti.com Aspiriti Recruitment - 2014 Salary Guide THE SURVEY RESULTS www.aspiriti.com Aspiriti Recruitment - 2014 Salary Guide SENIOR OPERATIONAL MANAGEMENT !"#$%&'%("&)*$%#)+',)#)-","#* (./010.23*0145 &6275'''''' 89.: &6275'''''''''' *. );59675 &6275'''''' 89.: &6275'''''''''' *.' );59675 &6275'''''' 89.: &6275'''''''''' *.' );59675 &6275'''''' 89.:' &6275'''''''''' *.' );59675 &6275'''''' 89.:' &6275'''''''''' *.' );59675 &6275'''''' 89.:' &6275'''''''''' *.' );59675 <"%3-9.=>',6267027'?095@1.9 !"#$$ %&#$$$ &'(#$ !"#$$ &#$$$ !)&#$ !)$$$ %&#$$$ &'$$$ !)$$$ &#$$$ &&$$$ !"#$$ &#$$$ &$$$$ !)$$$ &*#$$ &&&#$ ?56459'(902@0>643',?3-, !'#$$ &#$$$ !+$$$ !'#$$ &#$$$ !"(#$ !'#$$ &&$$$ !(#$$ !'#$$ &$#$$ !"$$$ !'#$$ &&$$$ !($$$ !'#$$ !+#$$ !"#$$ ?095@1.93-525964',626759'!645/ !"#$$ &&$$$ !(#$$ !!#$$ !(#$$ !"$$$ !$#$$ &$#$$ !"#$$ !!#$$ !+$$$ !##$$ +#$$ !(#$$ !&#$$ +#$$ !"&#$ !'(#$ ?095@1.93-525964',626759'A/5B'C5D0@45/ +#$$ &&$$$ !+$$$ +#$$ !)$$$ !(#$$ )#$$ !*#$$ !'#$$ )$$$ !*&#$ !'&#$ !$#$$ !"#$$ uploads/Management/ gcc-automotive-salary-guide.pdf
