Nearly 600 New Jobs Posted Daily as London Sees a Surge in Job Vacancies in April
News provided by Pressat Wire on Thursday 1st May 2014
London continues to see strong growth in the job market as the capital sees 47% more new jobs advertised than April 2013.
London residents have reason to smile this month as thousands of jobs are still being created on a monthly basis, and April's numbers show several key industries are continuing to perform well.
Almost 18,000 new roles were advertised through CV-Library in April, 1.7% more than in March, and a staggering 47% more than during the same period the previous year.
Construction continued its strong turnaround in 2014, with more than double the number of roles advertised in the Greater London area when compared to April 2013, whilst Engineering and Sales roles topped the charts in terms of job volumes alone. Other top performing industries included Education, Hospitality and IT.
Lee Biggins, Managing Director for CV-Library said: “As the main trading hub in the UK, these signs of job market growth are great news for everyone in the country. March was a really strong month for the capital, and to continue that upward trend is hugely encouraging. The strong performance of industries such as construction shows how our economy, both on a regional and a national level, is very much in a state of recovery.”
The findings in London for April come hot on the heels of a strong Q1 job market report from CV-Library which can be found here.
