  • Are universities equipping graduates with skills for industry?
    2025/06/24

    Dr Ben Thomas talks to Emily about a recent report from the Software Sustainability Institute (SSI) which examines what skills software engineering graduates bring to industry, and what skills employers say are missing. They discuss the reasons behind any skills gaps, and the varying roles that higher education, industry, and government might play in bridging these skill gaps in the context of today's higher education landscape.


    The SSI report was worked on by:


    Dr Ben Thomas (Researcher)

    Dr Rebecca Taylor (Principle Investigator)

    Professor Simon Hettrick (Co-Investigator)

    Dr Clare Jenner (Co-Investigator)


    Note from Ben: Apologies for the sound quality in this episode. I'm normally behind the microphone making sure the sound levels are correct – I was obviously distracted having to speak, so my voice is distorted at times. I hope you can still enjoy the episode!

  • Green Jobs
    2025/01/10
    The term ‘Green Jobs’ has become something of a buzzword, but it represents a crucial priority for the UK as we consider the future of our society and workforce. Emily Bastable, a PhD student and Fellow at the Work Futures Research Centre, interviews Sian Campbell, Senior Enterprise Fellow at Southampton Business School and creator of Make Your Place, an enterprise challenge for young people. Together, they explore the concept of Green Jobs, the current skills shortage, and the role universities and government initiatives, such as the Industrial Strategy, can play in fostering these sustainable careers.

  • Brexit, migration, and employment...what the numbers don't tell you.
    2024/11/27
    In this episode of the WFRC podcast, Maria Villares-Varela talks with Ben Brindle about the impact of Brexit and the new immigration law on migration fluxes to and from the UK, and on the British job market. The conversation reveals how unintended, and often untold, consequences of post-Brexit migration policies affect employment differently from what the national headlines usually tell us.
