Succession Planning: Preparing Future Manufacturing Leaders

When you think about succession planning, do you immediately picture the CEO, the board, or the C-suite? While leadership transitions are important, true succession planning goes much deeper. For manufacturing companies in Northern Ireland, planning at every level of the organisation is a critical factor in retaining talent, preserving skills, and safeguarding hard-earned knowledge.

Join us for an insightful session with Darren McVicker, Managing Director of Vickerstock, a specialist recruitment partner to the manufacturing and engineering sectors across the Island of Ireland and the UK. With over 15 years of industry expertise, Darren will highlight why effective succession planning is not just about replacing leaders, but about strengthening the entire organisation from within.

In this webinar, Darren will explore:

• Why succession planning at all levels is essential for long-term growth and stability.
• How bottom-up succession planning can improve retention and protect key skills.
• Practical steps to identify and develop potential at every tier of your workforce.
• How succession planning reinforces culture, strengthens identity, and positions your business as an employer of choice.

Key Takeaway: Succession planning is not just about preparing the next CEO. It is about building resilience, creating opportunities, and ensuring your organisation thrives for years to come.
