A key benefit for members....
Our exclusive online and in person events are CPD Accredited and feature relevant 'hot topics' discussions, industry trends and member spotlights – and above all, provide the opportunity to meet and network with like-minded Shared Service professionals.
The lifeblood of Shared Services Forum UK is our active practitioner networks, Purchase to Pay, Order to Cash, Financial Accounting & Reporting, Digital & Operational Excellence, HR & Payroll and Customer Experience. Over the years our networks have evolved with a real passion, and today they continue to thrive, and most recently shortlisted as an established virtual ‘go to’ reference for all things Shared Services.
Our networks sit and operate at the core of our membership community and exist as the main artery with all our member organisations who engage, exchange and learn in a safe and non-competitive environment, expertly facilitated by our Network Chairs, and supported by our expert team of collaborators.
Our Leadership events help to stimulate and motivate discussion and our agendas are aligned on company goals, sharing ways we can work together towards achieving them. We provide the opportunity to network and meet like-minded Shared Service professionals, enabling our leaders to discuss tomorrow's challenges as well as share ideas on how to leverage current business opportunities.
It is a great platform to share current challenges and successes, gain support and advice, make decisions, solve problems and exchange views and best practise.
Our flagship annual conference is now it its 19th year and provides members with the opportunity to participate in quality networking, learn and share best practice, listen to outstanding speakers, meet exhibitors and enjoy first-class hospitality. Each year our Conference attracts over 300 leading Shared Service professionals, and showcases a select number of key industry sponsors and business collaborators.
Our Future Vision Awards are a huge part of our annual event. It is the time of the year we get to celebrate the amazing achievements of our members and organisations.
