In case you missed the T+O+M Talks video, here's a summary from Kenny Ko on recruitment activity for Human Resources mid-2024.

• The Australian labour market remains tight with low unemployment, despite some sectors like banking and financial services right size. Growth is notable in healthcare, education, infrastructure, and energy.

• High demand exists for junior to mid-level HR professionals, particularly HR generalists. Specialist roles in employee relations, industrial relations, injury management, and safety are also in demand due to new legislative requirements.

• There is an oversupply of senior HR talent, with many senior leaders moving into consulting roles.

• AI and other technologies are increasingly integrated into HR processes, enhancing recruitment, employee engagement, HR queries, and people analytics, driving demand for HR technology/systems specialists.

• Flexible work arrangements and hybrid models are crucial for employees, with many willing to trade pay and promotion for flexibility.

• Building a strong organisational culture and improving employee experience are top priorities for HR leaders, alongside maintaining competitive salary and flexibility options to attract and retain talent.
