Increase in Perm Jobs......

Permanent placements grew at fastest pace since July 2007.

Commenting on the latest survey results, Bernard Brown, Partner and Head of Business Services at KPMG said:
“The latest figures seem to confirm that the UK jobs market is on the road to recovery: Permanent job placements are growing at their fastest pace since July 2007,with both vacancies and salaries increasing. Sectors such as IT & computing as well as engineering & construction that were particularly hit by recession are clearly on the rebound. However, this all comes with one big warning: The impact of the inevitable public sector recession on the jobs market has yet to be felt and will be played out over the next six to 12 months.”
