# UK Retail Sector Focus

Posted by [Kate Smedley](https://blog.advorto.com/recruitment20/author/kate-smedley) on 1 Aug 2016

The UK’s retail sector is in a state of crisis. With widespread shop closures, a reputation for poorly paid jobs and the ongoing disappearance of long established high street brands such as BHS it faces an uncertain future.

Our latest in-depth sector focus examines the issues facing the sector and how HR can respond, including the impact of the National Living Wage, automation, e-commerce and Brexit on retail brands.

We also explore strategies for HR to transform talent acquisition covering:-

- The rising demand for data analysts.
- Graduate recruitment.
- The digital skills crisis.
