Work in Motion: How businesses can thrive in a changing job market

Australia and New Zealand’s job markets are undergoing one of the biggest shifts in years. From the rise of poly-employment and casualisation to changing generational expectations and economic pressures.

To help employers make sense of these changes, we’re bringing the insights that matter most straight to you.

In this live panel discussion, we’ll reveal the most important findings from Employment Hero’s 2025 Annual Jobs Report, a deep workforce analysis shaping how leaders are planning for the future of employment. This isn’t just another industry update – it’s the data-backed blueprint leading employers are using to plan their people strategy for the year ahead.

Our expert panel will dive into how employers can adapt to the changing nature of work, attract the right people, and build resilient, future-ready teams – with practical insights and regional perspectives across Australia and New Zealand.

What we’ll cover:

• Trends such as poly-employment and casualisation, and what they mean for business
• Economic shifts affecting jobs, wages and confidence
• Why employees are “job hugging” or prioritising stability and how to strengthen retention
• Gen Z in the workforce, and the growing importance of education, training, career development, and AI-enabled learning in your Employee Value Proposition (EVP)
• How technology can support workforce engagement and flexibility
• Actionable strategies to attract, retain, and build resilience in your teams

Whether you’re leading teams in Australia or New Zealand – hiring, holding, or rebuilding – this session will give you the local insight advantage to make smarter workforce decisions in 2026 and beyond.
