The problem
The Electric Vehicles (EV) industry is one of the fastest-growing markets in the world, with revenue in the industry projected to reach $623.3 billion worldwide in 2024 (according to Statista). This is driven by sales of both Battery Electric Vehicles and Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles increasing year on year, with 10.64 million vehicles sold in 2023 alone.
To meet the increased demand for EV, there is a severe lack of supply when it comes to skilled talent, whether in engineering or product. This is further exacerbated by cross-domain skill shortages, where engineers in other industries lack the specialised skills necessary in the manufacturing of EVs. According to the Institute of the Motor Industry, the market will need 103,000 qualified technicians to work with electric vehicles by 2030, rising to 124,000 in 2032. With only 38,500 qualified technicians to date in the United Kingdom, even with training, there will remain a significant shortage of talent.
Another challenge this causes is talent poaching, especially with larger, more established EV manufacturers such as Tesla, or legacy brands such as BMW and Toyota consistently poaching talent from smaller players and vice versa.
