As the business confidence levels in the UK are currently on an ascending trend, the job market is also steadily growing, with more than 165,000 live job opportunities being recorded – the highest value since September 2008.
According to a report on the matter, the latest figures in the Reed Job Index point out that all 12 UK regions are showing a monthly and annual growth in jobs, with Scotland in particular showing sustained growth, with jobs up 48% year-on-year.
The monthly report shows that job opportunities are at their highest level since the Index began in 2009, with growth of over 17% compared to the same period last year. Each of the 33 industry sectors listed on the index is showing year-on-year growth in jobs, whilst all UK regions are showing growth compared to last month.
Retail saw one of the biggest increases in jobs posted, with a 17% monthly increase, while in the construction sector, which has benefited from four months of consecutive jobs growth, the continued rise in new opportunities helped it to a 74% rise against the same period last year. The manufacturing (+37%), automotive (+61%) & logistics (+58%) sectors all showed promising annual growth in October.
