Wage growth stagnates: economic uncertainty puts the brakes on the labour market

According to UWV, the pace of new jobs will slow down until 2027 due to increased economic uncertainty. DutchNews.nl

What does this mean for recruitment & sales organisations like those we serve?

  • New business is becoming even more important. Gaining the trust of customers and prospects is essential.
  • The focus is shifting from quantity to quality: those who offer genuine value in difficult times will survive.
  • Commercial professionals will need to adapt: acquiring more smartly, working with data, and deepening relationships.

💡 What we advise at TomorrowsLeaders:

  1. Ensure account and sales functions collaborate closely with marketing and customer insights.
  2. Train your team in consultative selling – it's no longer about ‘pushing’ but rather Think along.
  3. Keep an eye on retention: even in a tighter market, you don't want high turnover.
