London – Insurance, UK Labour Market Trends, July 2023
As one of the largest insurance markets in the world, the UK industry is surpassed in size only by the U.S., China, and Japan, where London is at the heart of that. With that, since quantitative tightening was initiated last summer, nearly all other market segments have slowed down in the capital. Not with Insurance, with January 2023 hitting all-time record levels according to Insurance specialists Harrison Holgate, and labour market data analysts Vacancysoft.
National – Regional Labour Market Trends, August 2023
After a roller coaster period, with record numbers of vacancies in 2022, there are signs the market is now starting to normalise, where by most accounts, it is now stabilising at the levels seen in 2019, so before the pandemic according to a new report by APSCo, and labour market data analysts Vacancysoft.
Procurement – EEA/UK Life Sciences Labour Market Trends, July 2023

Our CEO, James Chaplin, provides insight into business, operations and thought leadership at Vacancysoft.
Is London losing it’s competitiveness?
As salaries surge to match inflation, so businesses are shifting hiring away from the capital. In my previous post, recruitment is tidal, I referenced that in terms of macro job flow, what we are seeing is that 2023 is now mirroring 2019. However, there is one key distinction in that whilst activity in London is flat (vacancies in 2023 are currently on track to match 2019 exactly) outside the capital, we are seeing growth of 25.6% in terms of the monthly average, when comparing this year, to 2019, before COVID.
When others are fearful, be bold
At first glance, 2023 looks pretty bleak. After all, there has been a dip in vacancies, year on year, of 34% in terms of the monthly average. Businesses which for the last two years were just non-stop recruiting, this year have suddenly slowed down and for recruiters, there are many who are still adapting to this reality…
Recruitment is Tidal
The UK market has had a three-year rollercoaster like no other in memory. From the pandemic, to the post lockdown surge, such have been the extremes, 2019, the last time we had a regular market, feels a long time ago…
