Starting salaries reach highest level in six months

The starting salaries across the UK have reached their maximum for the past six months, a recent report by the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC) and KPMG has been able to reveal.

Pay growth is particularly strong in the Midlands with 34.8 percent of recruiters saying there are higher starting salaries and in the South with 36.6 percent also reporting higher salaries.

Along with the increase of placements the report highlights an increased demand in staff with expansion rates for both permanent and short-term staff rising.

Kevin Green, REC chief executive, says:

“Almost a third of recruiters say that starting salaries have increased in comparison to last month, and we’ve seen another increase in the number of people that have found a new job via a recruiter.”
