Job opportunities on the rise, says Elevation
Elevation Recruitment has identified a rise in job opportunities across Derbyshire and North Nottinghamshire. The company, which is part of the Horbury Group, said it has witnessed the trend in the accountancy, financial services and sales sectors.
According to the recruitment agency, accountancy and financial services are the two sectors with the largest rise in recruitment with job vacancies up by a third.
Matt Linley, managing director at Elevation Recruitment, said: “Between the years of 2008 to 2009, the recruitment market had a very bleak outlook resulting in countless numbers of companies tightening their belts, which unfortunately led to redundancies.
“Many redundancies were across junior levels, leaving holes within organisations. At present we are starting to see recruitment growth within this area, bringing in new skills to plug the gaps that were left and get businesses going again.
“Accountancy is now a particular area where there is now high demand for applicants with many firms hiring partly qualified and newly qualified candidates, to re-staff their workforce and deal with the increase in business.
“Our clients, both in accountancy and financial services, are very optimistic about the future of their sectors, which will reflect the increase in job opportunities.”
