UK Report On Jobs – February Published

Growth_GraphThe latest addition of the UK Report On Jobs has been published for February 2013, and here are a summary of the findings:

  • Permanent placements and temp billings through recruitment consultancies continue to rise, but at a slower rate
  • Vacancy growth is at a four month low
  • A higher demand for staff in the private sector has offset a decline in the public sector
  • Temp demand is highest for Nursing/Medical/Care staff

Bernard Brown, Partner and Head of Business Services at KPMG has said on the report:
"Appointments may still be moving in a positive direction, but with the pace of recruitment dropping to its slowest pace for five months, it won't be a surprise if hiring decisions are delayed further, putting candidates and employers in an unwanted state of limbo... sustainable improvement in employment remains dependent on the growth of the economy as a whole. Until this happens we are likely to see a continuation of this scenario, where two steps forward are followed by one step back."
