Job vacancies London
For job hunters seeking employment in London, an online search will reveal thousands of job vacancies on offer in the city. As a large, fast-paced metropolis, London’s workforce is continually expanding and, for the most part, jobs are available in the majority of sectors. But while new vacancies are advertised each day, it is becoming increasingly challenging to secure a job in London, as there is currently a shift towards hiring more highly skilled workers and experienced candidates.
According to the latest London Knowledge Economy report, the city’s job market is growing ever more dependent on skilled workers, which means that more positions are becoming available to highly qualified and experienced jobseekers. The finding has been substantiated by the Monster UK Employment Index which, in November 2006, found that the number of managerial positions in the UK was increasing, while the number of subordinate roles was simultaneously decreasing.
Your city needs you! Skill shortages in London
Ironically, while there is a shift towards employing more highly skilled workers in many British employment sectors, skills shortages remain as prevalent as ever. Businesses in London, both small and large, suffer immensely from these shortages and, in many cases (such as in the IT industry), experienced workers are hired from foreign countries. However, the good news for locals is that employers would far rather hire British citizens than foreigners, and employers in London are very eager for knowledgeable workers in the following sectors and professions:
- Healthcare professionals (including doctors, nurses, social workers, pharmacists, physiotherapists, clinical psychologists and occupational therapists)
- IT specialists
- Electricians
- Railway workers
- Veterinary surgeons
- Teachers
- Structural and bridge engineers
- Overhead Electricity Linesworkers
If you are skilled in any of these fields, you should be able to find hundreds of job vacancies in London fairly easily, and securing work in the city should not prove too challenging a task.
