New figures released by The Office for National Statistics (ONS) suggest there are "tentative signs that the jobs market is beginning to cool", with 1.4 million unemployed people in the UK between December and January – the highest it's been for six months.
Yet, for those businesses who are looking to hire, this new data does present several opportunities, such as a greater availability of talent available on the market with a desire to move quickly and get back into work.
And from our own data, we know that job seekers are active and engaged in taking their next career step.
In fact, in the first 3 months since January 2024, more than 25,000 people have visited to the job board and job applications have near doubled year on year
All positive signs for businesses looking to grow
