Metric 03

Internal Mobility

How many roles are filled from inside, and where are we losing people to the outside instead?

Primary buyer: Head of Talent

Example scope

  • One definition of internal fill rate, by level and function
  • Time to move: application to start date
  • Skills match between open roles and internal candidates
  • Manager behaviour: who blocks internal moves

Deliverables

EXAMPLE STRUCTURE

  • Skills gap map for the three biggest functions
  • Target and owner per function
