The HR recruitment market saw surprisingly high activity in the usually slow summer months of 2011. Demand was driven by both individuals changing jobs and companies growing or restructuring their HR functions. Niche HR roles in areas like reward, ER, and talent management saw particularly strong demand. Looking ahead to 2012, inconsistency in demand is expected to continue through the first half of the year due to economic uncertainties, though niche HR skills and experience delivering change projects will remain in high need.

Salary Survey & Market Report 2012
Introduction
The HR recruitment market has been surprisingly active during the course of 2011, particularly during what
can often be the slow summer months of June July and August. Conversely, September, October and
November have seen a slight decrease in volume (and client confidence), intrinsically linked to the volatility
within the domestic and European economic situations... and particularly evident in certain sectors.
Trends
The general increase in activity during 2011 can be partially explained by those individuals who remained in
post throughout 2009-10 waiting to see if the market improved and now creating openings as they move:
this candidate-driven demand has been relatively inconsistent, however. The other, and arguably greater,
pull on demand has come from those organisations within the private sector that made the decision to push
forward and either restructure or grow their HR function most corporate sector clients have seen growth in
their HR teams grow to some extent in the last 12 months. Specific commercial success stories, mostly
away from financial services, have also improved demand: Telecoms, utilities and energy sectors have
perhaps seen most interesting growth, and this is a trend we see as continuing into 2012.
Analysing the types of roles within HR that saw most demand is interesting. Niche roles such as Reward,
ER and Talent have proved to be particular sought after compared to more generalist HR roles; this is most
noticeable on the Interim side. For example, interim demand for exceptional Reward professionals saw day-
rates creeping back up towards the pre-2008 levels, although still quite not equivalent.
Looking ahead
So, what does the future hold for 2012? It is becoming increasingly difficult to predict volumes even within
the FTSE organisations. Inconsistency is still prevalent and will continue to be the major theme for at least
Q1 & Q2. Financial Services is, however, still a major area for demand within the HR recruitment market.
Instability within the Eurozone and the potential exposure to bad debt still concerns the major brands
based within the UK, and this will impact on confidence, growth and hiring strategy.
However, there will always be demand for the niche areas within HR, particular those HR professionals that
can demonstrate tangible commercial value and a track record of delivering Change and Transformation
projects.
