The True Cost of a Bad Hire
A smarter approach to building a stronger, lower‑risk talent pipeline

Thursday 25 June | 09:30–11:30

Hiring the wrong person doesn’t just cost time, it impacts productivity, team morale, and long‑term growth.

At this month’s Henley hubClub Networking, Michael Veary from Workpays will explore how businesses can take a more strategic, consultative approach to recruitment reducing risk and building a more reliable talent pipeline.

Focusing on the Path2 Apprenticeships programme, Michael will share how organisations across Coventry and Warwickshire are securing pre‑vetted, high‑retention apprentices and why this approach is becoming an increasingly valuable alternative to traditional hiring.

You’ll learn:

  • The real business impact of a bad hire
  • How to de‑risk your recruitment approach
  • The benefits of pre‑vetted apprenticeship pathways
  • How to build a talent pipeline that supports long‑term growth

Alongside the session, you’ll have plenty of time to connect with other local professionals in a relaxed, supportive networking environment.

Who should attend?
Business owners, hiring managers, team leaders, and anyone responsible for recruitment or workforce planning.
