The world of work has evolved rapidly in recent years, reshaping how organisations attract, engage, and retain their people. Among the many themes driving this change, one stands out consistently in conversations with both employers and candidates, the Employee Value Proposition (EVP).

In the latest episode of the Savage Insights Podcast, Managing Director Ronan Savage is joined by two respected people leaders who understand the importance of EVP in practice:

  • Laura Cassells AssocCIPD, Head of People & Culture at S&W Wholesale
  • Stephanie Mulholland, Commercial Director at Hunter Savage

Together, they delve into the real meaning of EVP, not as a corporate buzzword, but as the foundation for how organisations define their culture, attract top talent, and foster long-term engagement.

Key themes explored in the episode include:

  • What EVP truly represents, moving beyond salary and benefits to the overall employee experience and sense of purpose
  • Why EVP is essential in today’s competitive recruitment landscape
  • How EVP strengthens retention by aligning employee expectations with organisational values
  • Real-world examples of how S&W Wholesale approach their EVP strategy
  • Practical steps for employers to define, communicate, and embed their EVP throughout the employee journey

We are hugely grateful to both Laura and Stephanie for sharing their time and insights. Their discussion offers valuable, actionable takeaways for any business looking to build a stronger employer brand and a more meaningful connection with current and future employees.

If your organisation is re-evaluating its EVP or talent strategy, and you would like to explore how to strengthen your employer brand to attract and retain top talent, we encourage you to speak with Stephanie Mulholland, Commercial Director at Hunter Savage. Stephanie partners with employers to design and implement EVP and recruitment strategies that deliver real, measurable results. Reach out to Stephanie today on stephanie@huntersavage.com

We hope you enjoy this latest episode of our Podcast.
