The findings from Outsized\u2019s talent-on-demand report highlight the sectors making the most use of flexible talent models and the skills of the future to address the growing skills gap in the region. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

23 August 2022, Riyadh, KSA<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014\u00a0Outsized<\/a>, a talent-on-demand platform, has seen a surge of independent skilled consultants signing up to the platform and increasing demand from enterprises moving to more agile and flexible workforce models. The findings uncovered in the Talent-on-Demand 2022 report, based on proprietary data collected from Outsized\u2019s platform, summarize thousands of data points on client demand and talent skills. The findings from the report also revealed the Middle East as one of the fastest growing regions in terms of growth in the new freelance economy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the MENA region continues to consciously move away from oil dependence, digital transformation and automation are taking center stage and are being widely hailed as the Fourth Industrial Revolution \u2014 along with data being christened as the \u2018new oil\u2019. Governments are investing significantly in skills development and infrastructure to support this move. One of the initiatives implemented by the government termed UAE Industry 4.0, aims to transform UAE into a globally competitive, productive, and sustainable sector at the cutting edge of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To run an agile organization and to succeed in highly competitive markets, businesses need to have a sharper focus on skillset management. To achieve this, organizations are taking to managing a distributed and virtual workforce while integrating freelancers into their teams to make use of skilled talent from across the globe, increase cost savings, reduce the businesses\u2019 main office footprint as well as function with great speed and agility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Owing to massive transformation caused by rapid modernization and initiatives implemented by the regional authorities for digital transformation, many enterprises are consciously shifting towards these agile work models to address chronic skill shortages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In McKinsey\u2019s 2021 Global Survey, 58% of the respondents stated that closing the skills gap has become a higher priority since the pandemic began. Narrowing down to the region, PwC\u2019s survey found that skill gaps in the region are adversely affecting the growth in 3 out of 4 organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In keeping with the worldwide trend, there is a growing demand for specialist skills in the area of digital products and services in the region. As evidenced by Outsized\u2019s clients\u2019 demands, the top desired skill sets in the MENA <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Digital transformation  <\/li>
  2. Payments <\/li>
  3. Data governance, Analytics <\/li>
  4. Agile methodologies<\/li>
  5. Cards <\/li>
  6. Project and program management   <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Vikram Malhotra, Managing Director \u2013 MENA at Outsized<\/strong>, commented, \u201cBefore the onset of the pandemic, on one hand, enterprises were struggling to find the right talent to meet their needs, and on the other hand, skilled talent found it difficult to find the right opportunities with blue chip clients due to a very fragmented market. At Outsized, we have built the infrastructure to make it possible for skilled talent to meet premium clients efficiently. Clients can easily find top independent talent from the region and beyond, and freelancers and independent consultants can access opportunities with leading organizations in one place. The MENA region is witnessing the dual benefit of local talent getting access to global opportunities and regional organizations getting access to global talent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The report reveals that Outsized\u2019s MENA clients were focused on higher skills areas and that the trend of independent consulting and skilled freelancer contracts is increasing, with those onboarded often being based abroad. With the increased acceptance of remote working, combined with the growing digital adoption during the pandemic, Outsized saw a steep pick up in registrations from local and international technology and data specialists. E-commerce and Buy Now Pay Later services have also been booming on the platform, leading to increased interest from payments and card experts. Equally robust demand from consulting firms led to many strategy and banking specialists enrolling across mid and senior levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Furthermore, Outsized reports skill growth for the Payments, Consumer Banking and Project Management industries at 11, 5.5 and 5 times what it was in the previous year respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The report further reveals that the top sectors hiring skilled talent through Outsized are financial services management consulting and strategy consulting firms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
