Our focus on flexible talent, providing our clients with both independent and employed contractors, continues to deliver, with Contract representing an increasing proportion of our net fee income.\nThe macro challenges that we face globally - the need for digital transformation, climate change, supply chain disruption - drive an ever-increasing need for people with STEM skills. Our clients know that they can come to us for the provision of highly skilled experts, drawing on our global network and expertise. Similarly, candidates know that by coming to SThree their skills will be fully appreciated and they will have access to a huge pool of employment opportunities with dynamic organisations across the world, accelerating their professional growth.\nIn order to build on the strength of our strategic positioning we are also constantly improving all aspects of our business operations, with further investment in our people, talent acquisition and digital infrastructure moving forward as planned. This investment is designed to underpin our long-term success, with most of the current year cost due to fall in the second half as previously signalled.\nWhilst we are mindful of the wider macro-economic uncertainties, the demand for STEM talent, and flexible STEM talent in particular, is structural. Our position as the number one destination for talent in the best STEM markets and our strong contractor order book underpins our continued confidence.”\nTimo Lehne, CEO00:22 Introduction00:40 STEM’s position and unique model\nAndrew Beach, CFO06:15 Financial overview HY19 to HY 2207:48 Year on year performance10:04 ECM fees...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/oB5fNE4aIAia_YyTCKvE1PzrZQaD1Fjo_P7m7T9Aw_Y/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9kOTJi/ODBiMzBmOGFhZWJi/MWEzYThkMzAyNmZm/MTdjZi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
