Happy Friday LinkedIn! 🚀 Its been a huge week and a highlight for my work with Optamor clients has been the opportunity to work with Heads of TA across global IT and Defence clients, carving out strategic hiring approaches that outpace the competition. Below are some critical learnings that will help your business and hiring plans: 📈 Growth is in the post! - The UK economy might be experiencing slow growth currently, BUT the future is bright ☀ With 2024 into 2025 predicted to heat up, 48% of businesses are showing increased confidence in the latter half of this year. Exciting times ahead! 📣 Vacancy adverts are back! - We’re seeing a steady return to pre-pandemic levels of jobs advertised, with supported by market stabilisation and more predictable economic conditions. This is a strong sign of recovery and growth 🕺 💻 Remote/Hybrid decline - a shift in trends! - Only one-third of jobs advertised are now hybrid, down from 50% to 41%. Remote working is becoming less favoured with our clients increasingly valuing hybrid roles, providing flexibility to candidates that attract diverse local talent. 📈 Wages stabilising - planning for the future! - While wage growth has been significant in the UK (UK 7%; EU 3.7%; USA 3.1%), it’s now finally levelling out, providing favourable conditions for workforce planning. As the UK economy settles, this trend is stabilising, giving our clients the confidence to plan for sustainable growth. Just a snapshot of a positive situation - reach out to us if you are interested in learning how Optamor can support your business to catch and overtake the competiton in an ideal time for growth. #LabourMarketInsights #RecruitmentTrends #TAstrategy #Optamor #remoteworking #hybridworking #planningforthefuture #MarketInsights #PeopleSolutions #Solutions #weareheretohelp
