Unlocking growth: what’s holding back UK manufacturing?
Did you know that nearly 50% of UK manufacturers need capital and skills support to deliver their transformation plans?
The manufacturing sector is full of energy and ideas but in many cases, you’re working without the toolkit to execute them. Driving real change at pace is impossible if you’re under-powered or under-resourced.
We surveyed manufacturing leaders undergoing transformation, to find out:
- What transformation goals you’re prioritising
- The skills you need to achieve them
- Plans to boost productivity and automate processes
- Your views on PE and other funding sources
Our insights will allow you to:
- Know what matters – spot the transformation priorities that drive real value
- Spot skills gaps – discover how you could benefit from change management and automation skills
- Explore funding opportunities – the right investment partner can bring expertise and experience

“We talked to CEOs, MDs, and business owners at 100 manufacturing companies with annual turnovers ranging between £55 million and £350 million. These companies were undergoing transformation, and we aimed to understand their objectives as well as the barriers to achieving them.
The picture that emerged was clear: manufacturers know where they want to go, but many are still figuring out how to get there.”
