APSCo Insight - The Hi Tech revolution: transformation within the UK Labour market

The Hi Tech revolution: transformation within the UK Labour market with James Chaplin, CEO, Vacancysoft.

As we enter this new age of technology transformation, jobs across all industries are morphing. For example, banks are shedding costs to be competitive as FinTech’s increase share. Indeed, all sectors have their own challenges. Meanwhile the technology industry is ever growing in its share, despite the recent slowdown, especially given the Government initiatives to expand the UK’s market position as a high-tech hub globally. 

Vacancysoft has produced a detailed report of the changes in the last year by industry and region, focusing on sectors to watch, how skills in demand are changing, and businesses which have bucked the trend to be the busiest in their market. 

The findings of this report are being released on February 13. However, Vacancysoft is giving APSCo members a sneak preview.

For recruiters in the sector, being nimble and identifying the new skills emerging is key to competitive market position. Please join us for a high level summary of the report, where we dissect 2023 and look ahead to the coming year, to pinpoint the hotspots to watch.

Key takeaways:

  • Which market verticals outperformed the rest in 2023, looking at 2024, is that likely to continue, and what sectors are most likely to surge?
  • Skills in Demand – AI / IT is changing the job market. What areas are most at risk / growing the fastest as a result?
  • Regional Analysis – London had a quiet year in 2023, which region performed best – and can the capital bounce back in 2024?
  • Companies to watch – which businesses outperformed their verticals last year? How can recruiters get ahead to identify these surges in real time?
